It's been rough this week but I've been shuffling trips and running what I can. Bookings are slowing down this month after a fire June/July. Fishing is great mahis have been all over had a sailfish hooked 2 weeks ago up in close 1/2 mile off beach and have heard of quite of few being caught. Sept 1 - 15 gag groupers will be open so those weekend days red snappers and Gags are open at same time. Recipe for banner trips

The wind is stIll howling. My crew from Chicago caught a bunch of speckled trout. Only got a couple keepers in the boat and lost a couple really nice ones. It looks like the Trout bite is coming in now. The water temp is up to 70 so the fish are getting more active.

The Bulls reds are tearing it up, literally! Broken lines, straitened hooks and a broken pole but still managed to get these three in the boat.

    Trip: 30A Inshore Slam

  • ★★★★★
    I took my three adult children out for a 3 hour fish in the lagoon, and Captain Jeff and his brother Jason were fantastic hosts. The fishing was slow but they did put us on some red snapper and everyone caught a few fish. They were very attentive and were great to us all. I would certainly recommend fishing with them. The boat was comfortable and I had no complaints. I will certainly look to fish with them again. I give them 5 stars. Thank you Jeff.
