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

2024 Fishing Update Fall Season is one of the best seasons for fishing, as many fish are migrating towards warmer waters. Not only that, but there are usually fewer people on the water, and the weather is relatively mild. So, if you still need to plan a fall fishing trip, take this as your sign to do so! We have been Delivering The Results & Exceeding Expectations for over 16 years Tampa / St. Pete / Clearwater, Florida, is a fantastic fishing spot during the autumn months. With plenty of bays, inlets, and crystal-clear water, inshore fishing is incredible & being FULLY Credentialized & Holding ALL Federal Permits Offshore is ideal for significant results. During the fall season, you can land Spanish Mackerel, big Red Grouper, Hog Fish, Wahoo, Snapper and Cobia – among other Pelagic Species. Plus, it's a great time to catch Kingfish offshore, as they're in the middle of their annual migration thru December which is perfect for fishing enthusiasts looking for an unforgettable experience in a beautiful setting for the warm Florida Holidays. The area is ideal for both inshore & offshore fishing during the fall months. We get it done! Definitely Deliver the Results Exceed Expectations!!

Fall Has Finally Arrived Until recently, we hadn’t had any typical fall weather here in the Tampa Bay area, but it’s finally here. Most of November’s water temperatures remained in the mid-70’s. Usually, by now the water temperature on the grass flats is in the low 70’s to upper 60’s Snook are still open to harvest until the first of December, so you only have a couple of weeks to take advantage of it. My clients are still catching plenty of snook. Some are in the slot of 28 to 33 inches, but most are just under or over the keeper slot. Oscar Santana and Kinh Shiau fished with me earlier this month and Oscar caught and released a 34” snook unharmed. It turns out, Oscar had never fished before and this snook was the first fish he’d ever caught. Unbelievably, he continued to out fish Kinh during the rest of the charter. Talk about beginner’s luck, now Oscar is ruined for life… The redfish action continues to please. Schools of redfish are still plentiful, but now I’m encountering more rat reds. I don’t have a problem with that because they’re still fun to catch and if you never have, they’re a blast. Riley found that out himself recently when he caught his first redfish. When looking to take one home for dinner though, I move on in search of bigger fish. There are still larger fish around, I just have to do a little looking. Seatrout, out of all the inshore species, remain the most dependable, as far as, fish for dinner. It’s been a banner year for seatrout, and I look for that trend to continue right through the end of the year.
