Starting to chase tarpon now
The harbor is still at 72°. The fish are fighting hard. They are big this year and a lot of them.

This past week, the highlight for most trips, especially with the kids are the bonnethead sharks. Yesterday I believe we caught 10, and these young boys wanted nothing more than to see a shark. So how about 10?! Using light tackle with shrimp as bait, they put up a great fight and were great for the table as well!

    Trip: Inshore Fishing Trip

  • ★★★★★
    We had an absolute blast fishing with Captain Ty! He put us on an incredible variety of fish, including Goliath grouper, shark, snook, and ladyfish. 🎣 Captain Ty worked incredibly hard the entire trip. He never gave up and did everything he could to put us on fish and keep us on them. His knowledge, effort, and determination made the trip an experience we won’t forget. If you’re looking for a great fishing charter, I highly recommend Captain Ty. We had an amazing time, and I will definitely be back and booking another trip with him! Thanks again, Captain Ty, for an awesome day on the water! 🤙🎣

    Captain Chris was amazing! He provided great communication before our iguana hunting trip and during. Captain Chris was great with his instructions for our 10-year old and 8-year old. He was also very considerate and had a great approach to dealing with kids. We saw quite a few iguanas, shot quite a few, and recovered quite a bit. Overall, it was a great experience and I'd highly recommend Captain Chris! Very knowledgeable and experienced!

    Absolutely a blast. Great group, great coordination, and a genuinely fun evening from start to finish. It took some getting used to at first, since you basically have to identify the animals by color alone, but once you get the hang of it, it clicks fast and makes the whole thing even more interesting. Everything was well organized and the communication was spot on. I would do this again anytime. Highly recommended!
