haha nice if your ganna stay for a couple of days take my advice and try to catch a batray they need a very simple set up (a hi-lo rig with size 4 hooks baited with squid, and atleast 30 pound line) they are an amazing fight but be careful of the stinger.

lol i will... emailed a couple more charters to see if i can make a deal. just waiting for a response.
 
Stingrays can be finicky, but really fun though. I havent caught bat rays but have caught skates once on a west coast trip, also a sting in the gulf. Both times they stuck to the bottem like a pissed off grouper going into a hole. But they are really strong for their size.
