About Your Trip

If you've ever wanted to enjoy amazing fish-fighting action off one of America's premier waterfronts, this might be the trip for you. Captain Mark is a pro and loves to show clients all that the Crystal River area has to offer, from story-worthy gamefish like Redfish and Spotted Trout to delicious eating fish such as Snapper and Grouper.

You'll go after these fish using a range of techniques, from light tackle to heavier bottomfishing rigs. Jig, troll, and cast depending on the season and the species you're targeting—but once that fish is on, it's all you! Whether you're a seasoned angler or new to the sport, Captain Mark will help you find your target and fight your fish all the way onto the deck.

You'll chase the fish from the deck of Captain Mark's 24' Pro-Line bay boat—the perfect vessel for fishing the inshore waters of the Gulf of Mexico. She's powered by an ultra-reliable 150 HP Yamaha, so you'll be on the fish in no time, and she has all the additional electronics you could ask for, including GPS, FishFinder, Live Well, a tower for sightcasting, and two 10' Power Poles for superior boat handling.

Captain Mark will provide everything you need, including top-quality rods and reels. All you need to bring is proper clothing, a hat, and sunscreen and you'll be ready to go!

Each trip’s price is set by the guide and factors in all of their costs.

Once you book the trip, we will connect you directly with the guide to go over any additional details. In the meantime, our team is always available to answer your questions via email, text, chat, or call!
