Additional Information: Please remember that it is always 10-15 degrees cooler out on the water. Don’t forget sunglasses. Polorized amber or rose colored lenses are best when sightfishing. Please NO aerosol sunscreen!!!! Spray sunscreen will leave stains on boat and make decks slippery and unsafe. Please no hard or dark soled shoes. THANKS!
