Patch's reefs have produced great stacks of yellow Jack and cero mackerel an and decent mangrove snapper as well. The occasional African pompano has also been showing up on wrecks as well which is always a nice surprise All in all fishing continues to be relatively steady and we look forward to making more memories with our clients through the summer 🤙

We were on a pretty constant Bonefish bite till this past cold front, but the patch reefs are holding Mangrove, Yellowtail, YellowJacks, and Grouper. The next 5 to 6 days we'll be dry docked till the wind lays

    Kevin was an amazing guide. He was very knowledgeable and provided easy step by step instruction instructions while fighting 2 - 5 foot lemon sharks in less than 1/2 hour before daylight faded. Both were unkooked boat side with great video and pictures. His boat is clean and organized making it safe and easy to move around the boat while battling a catch of a lifetime for 2 Wisconsinites. Thanks Kevin. See you soon.

    Trip: Reefs And Wreck Fishing

  • ★★★★★
    We had an amazing time iguana hunting! There were thunderstorms in the distance when we arrived, and I honestly thought the trip would be canceled—but our guides, Wesley and Matt, knew exactly what they were doing. We never got a single drop of rain and they spotted way more iguanas than we ever would have on our own. The only thing I’d do differently is bring my own flashlight. They had plenty to share, but not enough for everyone to have one at the same time. Highly recommend this adventure!
