Evening trips are hot right now for reds and trout. 20+" trout hitting the deck with the biggest so far being 28 1/4". It's pretty much nonstop action all night. This is the one day trip I ran last week.

    GREAT TIME!!!!! Captain Kyle and first mate Ben made sure we had an excellent experience! We were celebrating a special occasion and the captain went out of his way to give us the best experience possible. My son and his friends had a blast!

    Captain Trey was a great and entertaining guide for our West Bay half day trip. Caught plenty of speckled sea trout and reds. We did some interesting fishing up the West Bay Creek that connects to the Chactawhatchee Bay that was similar to Bass fishing and very productive. We caught our limit of big reds. Thanks, Captain Trey! Hope to see you again soon

    Such a great experience. Captain Tim and Jake (deck hand) were both amazing. We did a 3 hour charter with 4 kids under the age of 7. Captain Tim and Jake made the experience so much fun for our boys. They taught them what to do, were patient and helped us catch so many fish. We will definitely be booking again!
