Cooler water temps have the redfish in the backcountry fired up. Higher than normal tides have been creating site fishing opportunities at tailing redfish up in the marsh. Low tides have the stacked up in the deeper holes in the creeks and around oyster beds.

Mullet run is going off. Lots of redfish, black drum, and flounder around. Weather has been a bit crazy, but in the right weather window, the bite has been really good

Coming off of that full moon and kingtide, I've had to stick and move in Ormond and Flagler. Fish are scattered on the flats and shallows. Im basically get one to two bites per spot and if I don't get a bite in 10 to 15 minutes I'm moving to another spot. Flounder, redfish and snook have been on the menu snd catching them on finger mullet, shrimp and crab.

Sight fishing in the flood tide has been productive. The black drum are starting to show up in the creeks and the bull reds have been in the inlet and bridges.

Fall has arrived & the mullet are running. Cooler temps and lunar related flood tides have the redfish up shallow in the grass. A great sightfishing experience on conventional or fly fishing as the redfish & sheepshead cruise the flats in search of crabs. The mullet run has also kicked off & this is not a time to sleep on active tarpon & snook as they migrate their way south. Inlets & bridges are holding bait & big tarpon.

David is a very personable captain. He knows the area and adjusted our location to . Eventhough catching fish is never a guarantee, David did his best and delivered. Next time I'm in town I will use his charter.

This was my son’s first time out salt water fishing. He had the best time! Landed some giant red fish. Captain Christopher will definitely be our go to guy in St. Augustine, until he decides to hang it up, which I hope isn’t for a long long time.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Outstanding Experience with Captain Anthony! 100% hands down, we highly recommend Captain Anthony! He is extremely knowledgeable, professional, helpful, and an all-around great person. As complete beginners on an inshore trip, he helped us catch so many different species of fish, taught us about each one, and made sure we had a fun and successful day on the water. We had an absolute blast and can’t wait to come back again. If you’re looking for a skilled, patient, and genuinely enjoyable captain, book with Captain Anthony—you won’t be disappointed!

Captain Dan took us to scatter our mother's ashes at the beginning of September. He explained how the trip was going to proceed in a clear manner, and, included safety procedures. We felt comfortable and informed as Captain Dan took us to a beautiful spot for our ashes scattering. He allowed us to provide him with music in advance and then played it as we scattered our mother's ashes along the river it was very lovely and touching. Afterwards, he gave us a tour of the area were we watched the dolphins jump and learned a little about the history of the area. Thank you, Captain Dan for your thoughtfulness and making this special time memorable. We would certainly ride with you again.

The best in the business!! We had the best time with Captain Frank. He was so nice and patient with us. The weather wasn’t great but he adjusted the plan and we still caught lots of fish and had a great time. You would have a hard time finding a better guide in the area. He’s incredibly knowledgeable about fishing and I hope we have the chance to go with him again. We learned a lot from him and I would highly recommend him for anglers of any experience level.

Had a great time with Captain Bill! The weather ended up keeping us inshore but he made sure to let us know ahead of time so we could stay flexible. He made sure to find us a few spots where we could get on some fish.

If you’re looking to have a great time, book with Chris! He and Kathy took excellent care of us on our first deep sea fishing trip. With his guidance on fishing and Kathy’s boat driving, we were able to catch quite a few fish. We will definitely be back!

Captain Mike took us out a little over a month ago on two boats with Captain Steve running the 2nd boat for our family. These guys did an excellent job of putting us on the fish. Very professional and knowledgeable of the area. Caught several reds, trout, flounder and my daughter was lucky enough to land a tarpon. Would recommend to anyone looking to fill their coolers. Thanks guys for the great time and experience.
