Fishing has been consistently good for Redfish and Sheepshead, with a grab bag of other species. Black Drum, Seatrout, Jacks and Mangrove Snappers have all been in the mix. If the weather stays warm, expect Snook and Tarpon action to heat up quick!

Redfish are still schooled up and the large trout are getting on the flats in the warmer days. The schools of big black drum are still around as well. Fishing has been good!

Been on a fun early morning topwater bite. Snook, jacks , and tarpon on artificial and fly before the sun comes up. Once the bright of daylight starts to shine the fly and lure bite dies and we have been switching to live bait.

The snook bite is HOT HOT HOT! We've been able to limit out on snook just about every trip. Snook season ends on December 15th so you have until then to put some Snook in your freezer. As it cools down the big bull redfish will be showing up too which make a great fight and picture!

    Richard was great! He was on top of the fish, baiting our poles and getting us unstuck Everytime we got caught on the rocks. He filleted our fish for us and even let my wife listen to her crappy music. Five stars!

    Capt. Neal was FANTASTIC. Our crew consisted of an old lady and two children (age 14 and 12) and our Captain knew all the best spots to catch fish…and where we could make a bathroom pit stop. He was informative and helpful as well as patient and accommodating. Adding to the adventure was the spotted trout we took home to make delicioso FISH TACOS!
