Lots of good info here, thanks everyone. We're gonna get a headcount and best date for the group and go from there. See if we need to go with a big boat or if we're going to squeeze down into a 6-man. Would be great to get in on one of the combo trips for salmon and bottomfishing but not sure if that's a possibility with having to go on a Friday.

Go with Rhett! On the Slammer, best boat in Westport!  Rhett is top notch dude, loves hunting and fishing!!!   Bottom fish and Salmon. 
I kill elk and eat elk, when I'm not, I'm thinking about killing elk and eating elk.

It doesn't matter what you think...

How did they all do on the salmon opener this weekend ? Thinking of making a flying trip down for a Thursday Friday fishing trip.

We went 2 weeks ago on the "Tequila Too" from Deep Sea Charters. Fast limits for the whole boat. They maxed the boat at 16 people due to Covid which gave us all extra space. It was great.

Another vote for Steve and Jason on the Hula Girl!  First class guys, ultra clean boat and their "fish on" excitement is contagious.

What do all of you tip at the end of a charter?  Is there a general rule of thumb?  If a charter costs $350 and all is good and fish are caught/cleaned, what would you tip?
10%, 20%?  couple few $20's?  Do you tip the same amount for the workers on the boat?  Say $50 x2 guys for a $100?

We always did 15% for an okay job, 20% for good, and 25% for great for snapper charters in the Gulf.

I tipped the bait guy 60$ on a 165.00 trip, and I was told to only tip the help not the captain.
