What to bring on your trip...
Food and Drinks
Bring plenty to eat and drink. When the weather is HOT be sure your bring/consume plenty of water! The consumption of alcohol is allowed but DRUNKS WILL NOT BE TOLERATED! If you get drunk we are required per the U.S. Code of Federal Regulations maritime law, to bring you back to the dock and call the U.S. Coast Guard. Also, your money shall not be refunded for the fishing trip. We recommend that you do not drink due to the inherent safety risks associated with the consumption of alcohol. However, if you feel the need to drink we expect that you do responsibly!
One cooler per person (48qt. max)
The Rock Star is a big boat but if you bring every cooler you own, she shrinks quickly! We have plenty of cooler space onboard for the fish, bait, and even your drinks so please pack lightly and don’t bring too many coolers. NO EMPTY COOLERS!!!!
Clothing fit for the weather
Clothing fit for the weather, i.e. warm clothes when it’s cold, rain gear, sunglasses. The cabin is heated but we still suggest that you OVER DRESS. You can always shed layers if you need to. Don’t forget Sunscreen for those sunny days!
POSITIVE ATTITUDE & PATIENCE
We are excellent fishermen here at LJK Outdoors but FISH ARE WILD ANIMALS, SO CATCHING THEM IS NEVER GUARANTEED. You may not fill the boat with fish every time, but you can still have fun, every time. We will do everything humanly possible to put fish on the deck but some days they just do not cooperate. Don’t be a ”Negative Nancy”! Sit back, relax, and enjoy the great outdoors!
Cigarettes/Cigars
You are welcomed to smoke on your trip. However, you may NOT smoke in the cabin. Also, mind your ashes and butts. If you put your Cigarettes/Cigars out on any part of the boat, you will be charged a fee of $250 per incident to fix the damages. Putting out Cigarettes/Cigars on the boat will damage the boat. How would you like it if I went for a ride your Ferrari and snubbed out a nice big cigar on the dashboard or flicked ashes on the floor?!?! Please respect the boat and let us know if you need an ashtray.
Suggestion: If you bring cigars, you should consider bringing one for the Captain.
What NOT to bring on your trip...
Bananas
Bananas...yes, bananas (The fruit). Incase you’re unaware, bananas are bad luck on boats. We enjoy being safe and successful on the water so we DO NOT allow bananas onboard. If you bring them, we will toss them...not joking. A Google search will provide you with the stories behind the superstition.
Drugs/Narcotics
ZERO TOLERANCE FOR NARCOTICS/DRUGS! If you posses/use narcotics/drugs while onboard our vessels, we will contact law enforcement and return to the dock. You WILL NOT be given a refund. NO EXCEPTIONS!!!!
Night Crawlers
Not only do Night Crawler Worms make a mess of the boat, they DO NOT catch! Night Crawlers are FRESHWATER bait. We fish in Saltwater. If you bring them, we will not allow you to use them. BLOODWORMS, Lug Worms, and Bloodworm Fish Bites are the best bait for bottom fishing.
Surf Rods
Surf Rods are designed for fishing...THE SURF on a beach! On the Rock Star we do not. There’s no need to cast when aboard our boat and therefore a surf rod is just a giant inefficient piece of equipment that will surely be in the way! If you have a smaller (up to 7’ long) light-medium action rod, you are welcomed to bring it if we are planning to bottom fish during your trip.
