Do I need to know how to fish or have any experience fishing?No experience is necessary and we always encourage new anglers! If you're a seasoned fisherman or new to the sport, we will show you the ropes and you'll be reelin' in the big ones before you know it.
-
What do I need to bring?EVERYTHING is fully outfitted and equipped for the day. We provide all fishing rods and reels, tackle, live bait, life jackets (if required or requested), ice, and cooler for your fish or drinks. Only thing you need for the day is your Georgia Freshwater Fishing License if required by the state. For more info and to purchase your license visit www.GoOutdoorsGeorgia.com. Other than your license just bring your snacks/drinks for the day and a cooler to leave in your vehicle if you plan on keeping some of your catch.

Do you accept gratuity?Tips are always appropiate and greatly appreciated.

Does Big Bite Charters have a cancellation policy?Yes. Reservations may be canceled or rescheduled up to 7 days prior to your trip for any reason and the deposit will be refunded or you may use the deposit for a future trip. If the trip is canceled within 7 days or an event of a no-call no-show, the $100 deposit will be kept. We understand life happens. If something comes up just give us a call and we can more than likely work something out without a problem. The reasoning for this, is once a date is reserved it is very hard to refill that date last minute. It's a process for clients to schedule their time off from work, family, and friends. That is why most all charters are booked well in advance. In the event of inclement weather, only the Captain can make the call if the trip needs to be rescheduled to another date, time, or canceled. In the event of unsafe conditions, if possible, the trip will be rescheduled to a different date or time. This is an outdoor activity. We fish year around in hot, cold, light rain, and wind. Please dress appropriately for the conditions. If there is any chance of lightning, we will not be on the water. We do fish in and around light rain, and it is encouraged. Stripers love to eat in low or falling atmospheric pressure systems. You do not want to miss these days of light weather. For example, summertime yields many afternoon pop-ups. The forecast may call for 95% chance of rain. That may be true for a 10-minute afternoon pop-up. Which in most cases your trip will be finished by then or we just work around it. You can assure your captain is very safe and we will never be in any danger of lightning or heavy storms. Your safety is our number one priority! If a reservation must be canceled due to unsafe conditions, the deposit will be refunded in full if the charter cannot be rescheduled.
