They are fired up on the wrecks with plenty of beeliners and triggers to mix in w them. Still seeing plenty of amberjacks as well. Inshore the sheepshead fishing is as good as it gets, with awesome numbers of trout and mangrove snappers.

We had our two-day Atlantic Red Snapper Season a few weeks ago. The first day we caught 11 in 30 minutes at one spot and kept 3- our 1 fish per person limit- and were done by 7:30. The second day we caught 10 in an hour and fifteen minutes in 3 spots and kept 4, done by 8. Kingfishing has been good. Clients caught this one Saturday. Tarpon are on the beach and at the jetties. Not only is the weather hot, but the fishing is hot.

Recent Red Snapper "Season". We only got 2 days. Caught 11 red snapper in 30 minutes the first day. Took an hour and fifteen minutes to catch 10 the second day. And they're protected!

If the interest isn't offshore the nearshore fishing for red snappers, bonita and sharks has been off the chain! Inshore things are starting to get scrappy with the warming water.

    Captain Bill was awesome. He helped my daughter with strategies and techniques on how to catch spotted trout. He put us on fish and our target fish spotted trout we caught. We had a great day.

    Captain K runs a very good boat. He knows his equipment, the spots, and the fish. First class experience

    Trip: Inshore Charter - 26' World Cat

  • ★★★★★
    Not a good trip. Left feeling like a charter took advantage of tourist from out of state. Didn’t fish with li e bait, didn’t have options of fishing spots, and the last spot was refueling dock where boat was refueling while we were fishing. We could have fished off the shore without him at that spot.

    Great Trip! I’m a seasoned fisherman but, I brought my sister and girlfriend. Captain Dave has two complete polywogs and me. He did a wonderful job educating the ladies on fishing and TOGETHER, they pulled in the largest fish on the trip! Great Time!

    Trip: The Awesome Island Experience!

  • ★★★★★
    Captain Bill delivered a first class experience to a mixed crew of seasoned and novice anglers. He was able to connect with each of us in ways that made the trip memorable and kept all of us actively fishing throughout our six hour trip. I've booked trips across the Gulf Coast, Atlantic Florida, and the Caribbean, and Bill is among the best captains I've chartered. He is a talented and dedicated professional who works hard to put his crew on fish for an excellent value trip.

    David was a great captain! The vibe was perfect for a relaxing, fish catching, four hours that flew by because “Time flys when you are having fun”. Highly recommend!! Our family of four will definitely be booking again.

    Great trip. Brian knows the marine ecology, and educated us about the various species caught at various times of the year. Oh, and the fishing was great. We caught enough Whiting for a large family and friends fish fry. Delicious!!

    We had an incredible time fishing with David. He made the whole experience easy and enjoyable. You could definitely tell he cared about how much fun we were having. Highly recommend using David for your next fishing experience no matter your skill level.
