now that should be better thanks

Your may want to edit the details into your post

Yes it is a good deal. Basically you get free rental rod and license... If you have those already the deal isn't so great, it is basically a regualar price.

Davey's Locker is a great company. I never go on a trip without confirming the details with the landing first. I would call them and double check your information. If it's right on, go for it, but I would double check.

Be careful about a "good deal"
 

There is a lot of negative about the deals out of Davys. Me personally I go out of Pier Point In LB or LB marina sport fishing.

$34 for a 3/4 day boat is still a pretty good deal.

i just bought 2....as far as im concerned if they put me in an area with fish, i dont need much more from the deckies. as long as theirs bait in the wells im pretty self sufficient onboard.


Looks like they have tried to right the wrongs of the past based on that first link Bus posted. Ill give em a shot.

im not sure exactly what your reading but its clearly not regular price...If you have gear its 34 instead of 69. not quite regular price.

Im going to send dad fishing.. Main thing i were intrested in was if those guys know what they doing and it looks like my dad should have some fun on the boat. Tried to get him on a kayak but he said he is too old for it( yes he is lol)so that should get him on the water for some fun...
Thanks guys.

Don't send him on his own, make it a family outing! More fun that way.

Hopefully u will take monies for full fare if this "deal" doesn't pan out. A deal like this could cost u more than normal fare in the end. There a catch somewhere. Than again Jimmy got the word.

If you dont go, wait for the boat to leave with all that are going aboard.

Im hopin the word from the Davey's Locker BD account is legit enough to be trustworthy. I guess ill find out. Cool thing is its good till may2012 so probably wait till the water warms up and some yellows start showin locally.
