The offshore sea bass fishing has been really good this year when we get the good weather days, with trigger if and porgies mixed in! The inshore bite is getting better with the bigger sheepsheads moving in to spawn. With warmer weather approaching the inshore fishing is going to be great.

Warmer weather is helping our cause! Mix of fish this week, few a slot reds along with trout and ringtails for the frying pan. Some bigger reds in the mix as well! If the weather cooperates, the black sea bass have been biting as well!

Today we had to adjust plans a bit with rain in the forecast, so instead of running as far offshore as I wanted, we fished some productive, nearshore, live bottom.
The action stayed steady with plenty of black sea bass to keep rods bent, and we also put one red snapper in the boat. Water temperature was 54, still on the cooler side, but the fish were chewing.

Despite some really cold days here in Fernandina Beach, the speckled trout bite was pretty darn good. There were a few days when the temperature was not bad. Fishing in deeper water was the key to getting these fish. We had good catches with plenty of slot-size fish. We ended up fishing in eight to ten feet of water using an adjustable float rig and a live shrimp. With the cold weather behind us, the fishing will kick into high gear.

Water temp is hovering around 64F. The sheepshead bite and black sea bass is in full swing. We also ran into some bull reds near-shore.

    Captain Jon was great. He was very knowledgeable of the area and where to go to find the best fishing. He communicates very well and was willing to work with us on the boat ram location due to a fishing tournament during the same time as our charter. He kept us informed and taught tips and tricks to help throughout our time with him. Next time we are in Jacksonville we will be looking him up again.

    It was a good day with Brian! He took us to lots of spots with lots of fish. And he was especially helpful in re-baiting hooks and giving instruction on how to best use the gear and tackle.

    Trip: The Awesome Island Experience!

  • ★★★★★
    Scheduled a trip and a storm was blowing in on the day of the trip and Captain James reached out and rescheduled with a day that worked perfect for my family. On the new day it was really choppy and we thought we was just going to have to fish close to shore but then it calmed down and we got to go out deep. Very first fish we caught was a sail fin fish I always dreamed of catching then we caught 2 barricade and a king fish. We hooked what looked like a great white shark that we fought for over 2 hours and it jumped out of the water and broke the line but it was huge biggest shark I ever seen in person and I live in Florida! Overall the trip was a great day with an experienced and friendly Captain and Mate that even helped our 8 year old fight t he shark for 15 minutes building a memory he would never forget! I will book all future trips with Captain James Walker. Great Captain and great man I could not have asked for anyone better than him and his first mate (his son also). If you want a memorable trip tell them what you want and they will do thier best to make it happen! Thank you Captain James for some awesome memories!
