Nearshore fishing has been good with big sheepshead, black drums and more. Offshore on the 10 hr trips, seeing big red grouper and other bottom dwellers. In the quad pic, that's a black drum. The others are pretty much all big red grouper.

Sheepshead said bite has been phenomenal using live shrimp and fiddler crabs pitching on mangroves and oyster bars in 2 to 4 ft of water higher tides have been better than low tides especially midday.

Cold water fishing!! We've been using shrimp for the last month now and the crustacean crushers are chewing good! Plenty of eating fish for our guests plus some fun catch and release groupers. Spring is right around the corner as pilchards are beginning to show up and we will be switching gears to snook and redfish! King fish season is knocking on the door too!! Book your adventure today!

Things seem to be finally warming up a little and the redfish, sheepshead and trout have been loving it. We even were able to find a few snook.

Some of the biggest Blackfin Tuna we've seen in years. All taken on a new proto type lure that was designed by Mahi Maniacs lures here in South Florida. Our clients went 4 for 12 on these hogs.

After catching about a dozen snook and a few smaller redfish, I told this angler that the big one is coming. On his next cast after releasing an average sized snook, he got the bite we were looking for. With big head shakes and hard fast runs, I knew this is the one he had came to Sarasota, FL to catch. This redfish went about 28lbs and over 39"

    We had an amazing fishing experience with Captain Paul. We caught fish, and he taught us several fishing techniques. We even saw manatees and a stingray! We had a wonderful time. He also shared a lot of interesting information about the area. He’s super friendly, and we highly recommend him. At the end of our trip, he cleaned and filleted our catch, and we’re looking forward to enjoying it for dinner tonight!

    Amazing trip with Captain Bobby. He took us to 4 or 5 different spots, and plenty of fish at each spot. My grandson’s (7 and 10 years old) were fishing for the first time, and Captain Bobby was very patient and helpful with them. The trip exceeded our expectations!
