Inshore fishing and backcountry fishing has been extremely productive, averaging 30 fish days and the cooler water has redfish, trout and big snook fired up. The nearshore wrecks are holding good numbers of mangrove snapper and sheepshead with some spanish mackerel mixed in Weather has been ideal and looks to stay that way for the next few weeks. Definitely a great time of year to get on the water

Nearshore and inshore fishing has been on fire. We have been seeing some big schools of redfish moving through our waters. Snook are cruising the rocks in the jetties. Nearshore fishing has been fun. Gag groupers, lane snappers, mangroves and muttons too! Super fun on light tackle!

People in West and Southwest Florida will not take the term hurricane season lightly .After the hit we took from Helene and Milton .as we patch up and pick up the pieces we quickly realize beautiful mother ocean still surrounds us and has so many positives to offer the water cleared quickly, and our Amazing fishery got right back on track booking through Captains experiences we got to meet Kai and Zach, snook , redfish, and trout. We're all first for them, and they were up for the challenge. Fall patterns have concentrated our fish. And persistence has paid off with some of the nicest Snook of the year . and this past full moon has been stellar on resurging numbers of large speckled trout Get with Captains experiences and get your trips booked today
