As the storms pass by us the winds have calmed and the seas are coming alive with an abundance of fish.
The Black-fin Tuna have moved into town and the bite has been red hot! Catching most fish by early morning with most bites at first light.
Snook season is here and we are seeing tons of Snook across the shallow flats and along several mangrove islands.
The month is looking very calm and filled with opportunities to catch some real nice fish!

Four hours on the ocean provided a lot of action and produced. We got meat in the cooler and memories in the bank.

4hr trip out of Key Largo. We fished the reefs and had a lot of action. Calm waters with an east wind made this trip fun for everyone.

An epic 3 days of fishing. Calm waters off Key Largo provided some amazing fishing. We had 2 large bull sharks that agreed. They took their share, but I think we still had a good haul.

Matt Green and sons, AJ and Aiden, had an outstanding day in the backcountry near Flamingo in Everglades National Park. The boys caught about 20 snook (we lost count!), redfish, jacks, trout and saw lots of sharks! They even got to see bottlenose dolphin and a bald eagle to round...

This weekend the bite was on fire! 8 mutton over 12 pounds. Spent the extra time catching livebait and used every single one of them. 20+ bites on the flat lines from Kingfish and false albacore. We couldn't have asked for prettier weather either.

Captain Andrew. Aka drew. What can i say. From the very start he communicated with us he wanted to make sure we had time to cast net some great bait and he did. Hardest working guide ive ever seen. And im 60 so seen quite a few. Andrew put us on fish all day long. Incredibly knowledgea le about the entire area and fishing area. My wrist and right arm are a bit sore from catching so many fish. The big target today for me was Snook. He put us on them. I lost 2 in slot snook in the mangrove roots probably 28 to 30. But caught at leat 5 in the 24to 27 inch range and another 8 in the 14 to 22 or so. Always busy always catchin and fi ding them. We also caught some big jack cravele big ones. Make your arm hurt. Lol. Plenty of mangrove snapper a couple barracuda and a bull shark. All day. Fun day. Now im tired. Took my wife to just hang out. She loved it. Great fishing trip with this man. Mike and Tami. Jacksonville florida.

Captain Dan and Ryan were fantastic. The ocean was pretty rough that day but they helped us have a great time and pull in quite a few fish. We’ll be back again next year and will definitely look to hire them again!

Hey Anglers, Born and raised here in Florida I feel like i know quite a bit about fishing, but our fishing guide Andrew was as good as they come. Hands down the best guide I have ever been out on the water with down here in the Keys. We pulled off a Keys slam... Tarpon, Snook, and Redfish. What a great day on the water. Thank Andrew for treating us to an amazing day. Tight lines, Frank

Tyler was awesome! Super nice guy who is incredibly knowledgeable about fishing the Everglades. We hooked multiple tarpon and Tyler cleaned our mangrove snapper which made for some great fish tacos that night. Highly recommend him to anyone looking for a unique Everglades experience!
