King fish are in thick offshore. Great time of year for multi species bottom fishing. Caught everything from triggerfish to scamp grouper not too far offshore. Inshore, snook and bull reds are in and when you get the tide right you have the chance for a fish of a lifetime.

Redfish and snook bite are hot right now. Once the water temp drops the bull redfish will be moving in to spawn.

Redfish bite is cooled off waste week with that cool front and full moon. I am expecting bite to ramp up with the warmer weather. Sea trout and weak fish bite is also getting better. A few whispers of some black drum in the river. Baits of choice have been...

Captain Aaron was fantastic ! The trip was a blast - our sons had the time of their life … caught redfish , whiting , sheepshead , lady fish , mangrove snappers and even a 50 pound bull shark … he was great with our younger sons who admittedly can be a handful !! Highly recommend!
