After a back-to-back cold front and a pretty nasty die off with water temps in the 50's, things have finally started returning to normal. Reefs and wrecks turned out a solid mackerel bite, a decent yellowtail bite, and plenty of muttons in the shallower reefs . Even had some surprise...

Reefs and wrecks turned out a solid mackerel bite, a decent yellowtail bite, and plenty of muttons in the shallower reefs . Even had some surprise sailfish, and nice wahoo as well.

Bayside has been very productive on the mangrove snapper front with some nice-sized fish for the box and plenty of action as well.

Father and son duo, Bill and Jackson, caught several over slot redfish and a few black drum on a recent trip to Flamingo in Everglades National Park. Kenny Brogan from Jumping Branch, WV came down to get out of the cold and caught some quality backcountry fish, all on artificial.

January has been hot and cold! And by that I mean hot fishing despite the cold weather! Most of our fish have been resilient of the colder water temps and still very happy. When the sun is out, so are the fish and that's what makes our winter months fantastic...

    Trip: Everglades Fishing Trip 1/2 Day

  • ★★★★★
    We had an excellent experience fishing with Captain Chad and his mate Ryan. From the moment we got on the boat, they were professional, friendly, and made everyone feel welcome. They worked hard to keep us on the fish, gave great advice, and made the entire trip fun and enjoyable. Captain Chad was knowledgeable and made sure we had a smooth, safe trip, while Ryan was extremely helpful and kept everything running perfectly. Their teamwork and customer service really stood out. If you’re looking for a great fishing charter experience, I highly recommend them. We’ll definitely be booking another trip soon!
