Average 2-4' seas. Bait has been hard to find/catch. Our new Contender with the Sea Keeper ride makes for a great cruise experience offshore.
Big Black fin tuna bite has been consistent with several days of lighter current, allowing for deep water bottom fishing for the Vermillion snapper, with surprise Grouper catches mixed in.

The Crappie bite has been on fire recently in Lake Okeechobee, we've had a lot of 100-150 fish days with some really nice 12-14in fish weighing up to Two Pounds! We've been consistently catching multiple limits in just a few hours with people of all ages!

Finding warm water seems to be the key. First fish on the boat was a nice 35-45 pound Wahoo caught on Mahi Maniacs new proto type lure. Trolled around and found a Mahi that ended in the box and Sailfish were present however would not commit. We made our way into the bottom grounds and found Lane Snapper, Trigger Fish and all the Bluefish you could catch.

    Chad and JJ were both great. We had a slow day of fishing but JJ busted his butt trying to keep us on the fish. We hooked two sailfish which made the whole trip worth it! Boat was very nice too!

    Trip: Indian River Lagoon Inshore

    Unfortunately the Everglades had up to 3 inches of rain the night before, therefore the fishing was not good. He then hooked us up with Greg Hutch and we salt water fished the following morning. Had fun with both, just better fishing in the ocean.
