King fish are still in town. The bite has been amazing on the reef. Grouper season opened back up, time to fill the freezers!

April started on a high note , with spring on us fish are getting very aggressive and protecting their fry so it is that time when a big strike on a top water lures shows up
My last trip was a peacock bass trip , after 50 I lost count and it was at mid day trip so I think we ended on 80+ , 3 pounds was the standard size but probably 15 over 4 pounds

Perfect bachelor party in the Everglades.
It was a really good trip. Caught a lot of trout, snapper, grouper, and snook in Everglades national Park.

    My wife, my son, and i went on a 4 hour Everglades trip with Jose and it was one of the highlights of our vacation. We caught probably 40-50 fish in 4 hours! Jose was incredibly friendly and entertaining. I would absolutely pay to fish with him again.

    Quick trip to Miami over the Father’s Day Weekend! Father, son, daughter fishing trip with Chris. Great trip, Chris took are of all our needs, put us on fish, not everyone landed the fish we hooked up on, had Kings break us off, fun nonetheless. Did manage to land lunch, nice 20-25lb African Pompano, great eating. Had a Great Tine, we’ll definitely book Chris the next time I’m down visiting my daughter💪🏼🎣
