Default Fishing charter for kids

Hay
I am just looking to find some information on fishing charters for kids. My six year old son wants to go fishing while in Punta Cana this Aug, and I don't want him to go deep sea fishing. So I was wondering if there was any other form of fishing charter he could do. Basically looking for activites besides those in the resort.

depending on what resort you will stay i would recommend you check with the resort, they often have small speed boats with a skipper available and rent you that for a couple hours to fish along the reef and flats near the hotel.
always bring you own fishing tackle, no shop around to rent such.
have fun

K-Mart or West Marine sell inexpensive telescoping Rod/Reel combos.
