The redfish bite is still very solid. Trout, snook, and Spanish mackerel are biting well too. Cobia and tripletail are starting to show up nearshore

    Gage was absolutely awesome. He knows the best places, setup my fly rod correctly for me. He gave me great instructions. I did get a hook in the mouth of a tarpon, unfortunately it shook loose. But would definitely do it again.

    We had an awesome time with George!! He was so kind and accommodating to our special needs son! We were on the fish as soon as we left the bay and caught several keepers to try in the pan. I would recommend George to anyone that is looking for a good time with a highly knowledgeable captain.
