Cold weather brings out the tasty sheepshead! Fishing them under docks, and deep mangroves holes. Nearshore has been producing them as well in structures.
Small pieces of shrimp on a jig head does the trick.

Fishing has been really good, even with the cold fronts coming through. It's not stopping the bite after these next few colder days are over; it will start to warm up, and the fish are gonna go crazy eating everything

Winter is in the air! Pompano are on the flats along with trout and jacks and a few flounder, and sheepshead are on the rocks and nearshore reefs. Itâs a great time to get out and put some meat in the cooler .

It's winter time and shrimp fishing has been very productive for sheepshead, black drum, and redfish! But even with the water being freezing, sheepshead keep the action rolling! It gives all of the other species, like trout and snook, a break till it warms up!

Sheepshead bite has been really good and will only get better as these cold fronts move in. Targeting them near structure, pilings, rock pilings along the beaches. Using small prices of shrimp on a 1/0 circle hook and a pinch weight.

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!
Logan was a great captain. Enjoyed his company and his knowledge of the outdoors. Was a pleasure and look forward to using him again in the future. Kona was the real winner today. She was amazing
Captain Adam was fantastic. We had a group of 6 - all first time iguana hunters! We had to wait out a some unpredictable weather before starting, and Adam was extremely accommodating. A wonderful unique experience and would absolutely book again! Highly recommend.
Capt. Logan was best fishing charter experience yet! He got us on fish quickly and was great getting my kids going and off catching snook. His equipment was well prepared, clean, and ready for the day. A few times we had doubles going and he was cool and collected even with the occasional snagged line. When it was time to take a break Logan took us to get the "Cheeseburger in Paradise" at Cabbage Key Inn. Then we headed back out for some trout and was able to score a couple keepers and our dinner problems were solved. Capt. Logan's music choice on the way out and way in was great for our family. We highly recommend Logan if you are looking to fish in Southwest Florida. We will be back, maybe for iguanas though.
Great trip with Logan and Kona! Logan was very flexible and accommodating. Great equipment/experience. Fun day with my son and grandson. Kona was a joy to watch and an extra special part of the hunt.
