FISHING TRIP TERMS & CONDITIONS
Bonefisc Striper Guide Service, LLC will do everything reasonable for you to have a great time on your fishing trip, but we do have some rules. Some are general rules for safety and other rules are for the protection of our boat and equipment. Our fishing trips all operate under our complete Terms and Conditions listed below. Scheduling a fishing trip with us is your agreement to these terms and conditions.
- The fishing trip agreement includes an outfitted fishing boat, a Licensed Fishing Guide, and all tackle and bait.
- The balance of your fishing trip price over and above your deposit is due prior to departure from the boat launch.
- It is your responsibility to notify all members of your party and arrange for your party to be present on the date, the location, and at the time designated by your Captain. You are expected to be on time for your trip.
- If you cancel less than 14 days before your scheduled trip or do not show up at the designated place and time on the day of your trip you will be charged the full amount of the trip. If there are extenuating circumstances, your trip may be rescheduled at the discretion of your Captain.
- When you reserve a trip date, it is your fishing date/time as long as the boat Captain determines that the weather is appropriate
for fishing. Lightening, hail, high winds and torrential rain are a few examples of severe weather that may result in the boat Captain terminating or halting the fishing trip. - A trip terminated by the Captain due to bad weather once fishing has commenced will not be entitled to a refund if the fishing party agreed to begin the fishing trip knowing of the impending weather. If we have to cancel a trip due to inclement weather, we may reschedule the trip for the first available date acceptable to both you and us, provided a reasonable amount of fishing time has not been completed. A trip terminated due to member(s) of the fishing party getting sick will not be entitled to a refund or credit. We reserve the right to make whatever changes in the trip that circumstances dictate, including substitutions of boats, cancellations due to weather, mechanical failure, etc.

Children are required to wear a life jacket at all times while on the boat and to stay seated in designated areas while the boat is moving. Please assist in making sure that children comply. Adults are encouraged to wear life jackets and to know where all safety equipment is located on the boat.
- Bring plenty of drinking water and hydrate frequently, especially in hot conditions. Wear appropriate foot gear to avoid slipping on wet surfaces. Try to stay dry and protected from the elements. Wear a waterproof sunscreen with an SPF of at least 15. Dressing in layers and having rain gear with you is always a good idea. In cold weather conditions, a coat, hat, gloves, and warm clothes are a must.
