High seas have caused a lot of schedule changes and made fishing challenging. The Mahi bite has cooled as the wind and seas have blown the weed lines apart and trolling is picking up bits and pieces of grass. Our best luck has been finding patches of grass and chumming them to see if any mahi are lurking around.

A lot of snapper and snook right now.
Snapper we can keep and they have to be 10" to keep and we have been limiting out almost every day.

    Captain Chris was amazing! He provided great communication before our iguana hunting trip and during. Captain Chris was great with his instructions for our 10-year old and 8-year old. He was also very considerate and had a great approach to dealing with kids. We saw quite a few iguanas, shot quite a few, and recovered quite a bit. Overall, it was a great experience and I'd highly recommend Captain Chris! Very knowledgeable and experienced!

    Trip: Iguana Hunting Veteran Guides

  • ★★★★★
    Absolutely a blast. Great group, great coordination, and a genuinely fun evening from start to finish. It took some getting used to at first, since you basically have to identify the animals by color alone, but once you get the hang of it, it clicks fast and makes the whole thing even more interesting. Everything was well organized and the communication was spot on. I would do this again anytime. Highly recommended!

    I would give more stars if I could. Logan was a great guide and very knowledgeable about hunting SWFL. Kona was a great dog and one of the best parts of the trip was watching her retrieve the iguanas. When we do another iguana hunting trip we will definitely choose Logan as our guide!
