Our water temperature is starting to come down, and the fish has started arriving. Big Spanish mackerel hit the grass flats late September through October. Also, Pompano join the party in the Bay as well. Speckled trout have begun packing on the pounds by eating pinfish almost as big as them. Well, Spanish mackerel, fishing I had this pinfish eat my Spanish Fly and the speckled trout eat my pinfish. Clients are doubling up mackerel and 3 to 4 pound ladyfish. If that doesn’t suit your fancy, sight fishing for redfish has also picked up.

Jordan did a great job putting us on fish. He don’t stay on unproductive spots. We had a great time and I highly recommend booking your trip with this guide.

We definitely had a good trip with Captain harold. He put us on fish all day long on our 10hr trip. We caught a lot of fish between the 6 of us at every location captain harold stopped us at. We recommend this guide to anyone who wants to have fun catching fish.

Was a great experience for my inexperienced family. First we caught bait fish jigging a little offshore. Using a 5 hook rig almost every time we hooked multiple fish. Catching 4 to 5 was not uncommon. Then we went about 8 miles offshore to fish in about 90’ of water. Everyone caught fish. Just a note that catching a 24” amberjack in 90’ of water will wear a person out. Though we caught lots of fish only had 3 of keeper size. My entire group said they would do it again.

We had a great time with Jonathan. He was patient with us three amateurs and put us on some nice redfish. My grandson who is 7 had a blast catching his first redfish. Thanks again.

Honestly, we were very disappointed in our trip. The beginning was fine. As time went on, David ‘s language was a bit rough with choice words that we didn’t need to hear. His driving of the boat in rough water was way too fast and both of our backs are still hurting a week later . And we may be a bit older- but both in good shape. At the end of the trip- just had us casting in grass. Never been on a trip where at least cold bottles of water weren’t offered or available . Would never recommend. Expensive trip for a few fish and not as we have experienced before on other fishing outings. We did give a nice tip 20% because that’s who we are . Wish him the best in the future.
