Now that the summer's red snapper season is coming to an end don't forget the pelagics and other reef species such as gag grouper. Grouper sandwiches are on the menu now!

It's very hot outside and and the bay water temperature is threw the roof. Finding moving water has been the key to success. Fishing deep grass flats close to the jetties has produced some keeper trout in a mostly dead bay. The one thing that has kept my clients and I going through this heat is the bull reds. Anywhere there is deep water and good current bull reds have been crushing their favorite prey. They have been plentiful with opportunities to catch them on live bait, plastics, and even fly if an angler...

can show some patience. Long fights and screaming drags is a great way to end the Summer!

Red snapper fishing is still in full force. We have 23 days left of our federal season. We have been catching the Red Snapper on live Cigar Minnows, Pilchards, Boston Mackerel and whole white squid. The weather has been absolutely gorgeous and one of the prettiest June and Julys we've had in a long time. The water is clean, clear and hot and the beaches are absolutely beautiful!

    We loved fishing with Captain Dwayne. 2nd year we have been with him and he’s amazing, between finding the best place to catch and baiting our boys, we had the best time!

    Trip: Half Day Fishing Apalachicola

  • ★★★★★
    We were originally booked for a 7am trip but Brock let us know it would be better to wait a little later. We ended up going around 3. The weather was great. Brock put us on some red fish and my son also caught a sting ray. We ended up with several keepers and can't wait to fry them up!! Brock was so helpful to the ladies on baiting their hook and casting out for them. Can't wait to go again!!

    Trip: Reeling In Memories

  • ★★★★★
    Duane was amazing! My husband and Friend had such a great time. They really didn't know what to expect and how much fish they were going to catch, but their minds were blown! I think they caught over 15 fish! Dwayne was very knowledgeable about where to find the fish what kind they were the sizing, etc. They had a great time, great value for the money! Highly highly recommend using this service.
