A couple 6-hour trips for the last few days it's been full moon fishing so we've had to work for all of our fish but we still made some decent catches

Snapper season is well underway and anglers have been bringing in some really Big Red snapper. There has been lots of red grooper and vermilion snapper, along with a few lane and mangrove. Snappers mixed in. The tarpon and red fish are cruising. The beaches and anglers have been catching quite a few of them. Also, the weather has finally straightened out. Looking good for the weekend coming up.

    Trip: 30A 4 Hour Inshore Trip

  • ★★★★★
    Captain Patrick and 1st Mate Hunter were fantastic. We could not have had a better experience. The accommodations were great. Hunter had his hands full taking care of us. He was very patient with a group that required a lot of help.LOL!! Our goal was to catch enough for supper and we achieved that with some to spare. The boat was great with a bathroom and a/c which was great for my granddaughters. Highly recommend and can’t wait until we can go back!!

    We did the 5 hour trip. It was a blast. The only thing I would chance is taking a longer trip so we could go and catch some of the more “sport fish”. Also I would also recommend the morning! An amazing crew and couldn’t of had a better time!
