Some fun inshore kids trips in between the storm and the floods this past weekend. The Spanish bite in the bay has been really hot the past few days and we look to start getting back out in the gulf tomorrow.

Fishing report this weekend: The bite has been solid this week! We’ve been putting clients on plenty of keeper red snapper along with grouper, and Amberjack offshore.

Calm mornings have made for great conditions, and the action has stayed consistent. If you’re planning a trip to Fort Walton Beach or Destin, now’s a great time to get on the water before the best dates fill up. Tight lines! 🎣

A couple 6-hour trips for the last few days it's been full moon fishing so we've had to work for all of our fish but we still made some decent catches

Bottom fishing has been great lately so have the trolling trips. When bottom fishing we have been getting big vermillion snapper, some red snapper, and red grouper. When trolling we have been getting Mahi Mahi, Little Tunnys, big Spanish Mackerel, and King Mackerel.

44 keeper Pompano yesterday!

The Pompano bite has been absolutely awesome this month, we are also catching some small sharks, some Spanish mackerel, some lady fish, and some hard tales in between. Plenty of action for everyone this time of year. Some trips we have a Rod bending at all times!

    Captain Richie, Quinten and Dexter were FIRST CLASS. They gave great advice upon booking, and their insight led us to a marvelous deep sea fishing day. We caught trigger fish, snapper and a couple grouper we needed to throw back. They kept us safe, made excellent conversation and facilitated an all round stellar day. It didn’t stop there - everything was cleaned, fillet and scaled as I requested. Just awesome. We will definitely book with them again next year. Thank you! - Rii

    Huge shout out to Cliff and Austin! Took my kids on their first fishing trip in the Gulf. Cliff got us on the fish and Austin kept us fishing reeling in the fish. Perfect family trip. The kids loved it. Cliff turned us on to Brotula's "catch and cook." Just topped off the trip eating our fresh catch.

    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.
