The redfish bite is 🔥, only looking to get better as water temps rise. Trout haven't been as consistent just yet, we're getting a keeper here and there

Red Grouper and Vermillion Snapper are lighting it up! Already had enough meat in the cooler after the first Cobia of the year so we ended up releasing 4 nice keeper Red Grouper

We had a great 4hr trip with Capt Max. Was a first time for my wife and daughter and they both were able to catch a lot of fish. We caught so many different types of fish and able to keep some grouper and trigger fish. Max is a friendly captain and we would definitely go out with him again.
