Apalachicola fishing is heating up as the weather turns cold. Redfish are haunting the creeks and flats, foraging on everything they can find to eat. Soft plastics and flies make excellent offerings this time of year. Off the beaches Bull redfish are starting to invade the shoals and inshore sandbars, chasing schools of baitfish and shrimp. Poppers and topwaters have been getting smashed with explosive frequency. All in all, if you can brave the cold, the fishing is quite hot!

Fall time along the Forgotten Coast makes for some unforgettable outdoor experiences! Gator hunts have been doing very well! 24 gators harvested so far this season with largest being 10'6". Scalloping in St Joe Bay has produced very good harvests however finding them in the turtle grass has been somewhat difficult, season ends September 24th. Nighttime flounder gigging has been on fire with plenty of other species also filling up the coolers like large sheepshead, mullet, & black drum. Redfish starting to heat up with cooler water temps arriving. Live shrimp on jigheads & Carolina rigs have been producing best.

    We loved fishing with Captain Dwayne. 2nd year we have been with him and he’s amazing, between finding the best place to catch and baiting our boys, we had the best time!

    Trip: Half Day Fishing Apalachicola

  • ★★★★★
    We were originally booked for a 7am trip but Brock let us know it would be better to wait a little later. We ended up going around 3. The weather was great. Brock put us on some red fish and my son also caught a sting ray. We ended up with several keepers and can't wait to fry them up!! Brock was so helpful to the ladies on baiting their hook and casting out for them. Can't wait to go again!!

    Allen was a fantastic guide! He went above and beyond to make sure we had a great day of fishing. He was very accommodating and eager to help our family of five. We will certainly be back!

    Trip: Apalachicola Bay Fishing Trip

    Our trip was great. Jared was top notch on everything. We will definitely book with him on our next trip here. Absolutely the best charter we have been on. We caught a lot of fish and plenty of keepers to take back for a great meal.

    Trip: Apalachicola Inshore/Bay Trip

  • ★★★★★
    Duane was amazing! My husband and Friend had such a great time. They really didn't know what to expect and how much fish they were going to catch, but their minds were blown! I think they caught over 15 fish! Dwayne was very knowledgeable about where to find the fish what kind they were the sizing, etc. They had a great time, great value for the money! Highly highly recommend using this service.

    We had a blast with Captain Carl. We caught plenty of fish. But having a captain that will enjoy the trip as much as the custom is priceless

    Brian, was great guide. Knew his business and worked extra hard to get on fish. Had fun, caught a good number of tripletail but didn't get any keepers today

    Such a great family trip, Captain Tim and his crew were helpful, fun, and great anglers! They made sure we brought in a lot of fish and got to wrestle with some big ones!! Captain Tim knew all the good spots! Definitely want to book again!

    Trip: Carrabelle Fishing Trip

  • ★★★★★
    We had a blast with captain Allen, he got us on fish and had great knowledge of the bay. We caught some trout, redfish and my daughter caught a black tip shark, while we were fishing for bait. This was a great experience that we will remember for a long time. I highly recommend this charter and captain Allen, we will be booking again next year.

    Trip: Bay & Flats Inshore Fishing Charter

  • ★★★★★
    Captain Dwayne put us on the fish for sure. The fish did not cooperate in the size category. Not from the lack of trying. If they were not biting he moved us to another location. We did get some keepers though. We also caught plenty close to the right size. It was an extremely successful trip!! We will next year seek out this Captain for our trip!! Thank you Catain Dwayne...
