Finally, the weather is back to normal, and the Spanish and King Mackerel have shown up in big numbers. Took a few young anglers and we kept busy on an afternoon 3 hour trip a couple of days ago.

The weather has been terrible lately, but we have been scraping tooth and nail to stay on the i shore bite! When we can get offshore the mackerel are thick and so are the snapper!!! Plenty of openings between myself and Mike, looks like next week we have quite a few days in the forecast to go out to the snapper grounds and hammer down!!

    Trip: 5 Hour Gulf Fishing Adventure

    If you are looking for a great inshore fishing experience, make sure you book with Colby. We were fishing during tough conditions and the other boats were not very successful. Colby put us on fish and we caught plenty of Mangrove Snapper and Trout. We also caught a couple of Redfish as well.

    Captain Jerry and his main man Levi were amazing. Took my family and I out for our first fishing trip. Had a blast!! They were very helpful, encouraging, funny and great to get along with. Our trip was catered and it felt like it was our personal boat with the way were treated. We WILL be going on another trip with them in the future.
