Time your trip for calm seas
Early morning departures typically offer gentler water, cooler temperatures, and better bite rates.

If you’re prone to seasickness, take medication beforehand and sit mid-boat where motion is least felt.
Protect yourself from the sun
High SPF sunscreen, a wide-brim hat, and UV sunglasses are essential during daytime trips.
Secure loose gear and electronics
Use a dry bag and clip cameras to prevent saltwater damage during swells and when landing fish.
