Snook, redfish and trout have all been coming to the boat with some monster fish mixed in! Live scaled sardines free lined and under a float along with sea shads by Saltwater Assassin have all been catching fish.

The spring bite is in full swing and the days of catching big powerful predators is back. Snook trout and redfish have been off the charts. At the same time tarpon are showing up in full force from their winter hiatus. Bait fish have been pretty easy to come by most mornings and these fish are ready and willing to eat every bait you put in their vicinity.

The night time gag grouper bite has been no stop and they are eating anything we throw at them! To many to count and we are getting them in all depths in the bay and bridges. Mackerel bite has been on fire with xxl...

Going out with Captain Brad was a great time. He is a no nonsense guide who went above and beyond to get us on the fish. Even in not so great weather, he made sure we all had a great time.
My whole crew was extremely happy with excursion I was sick the whole trip so this review is for them. I’d recommend them very informative very nice and very caring.
We had an excellent time with Zack. He knew all the best spots to fish and made sure that we were successful. The day flew by and was a great time. Thanks!
Excellent day out on the boat with Capt. Charlie. We caught plenty of fish, threw some back in and had a good time. Capt. Charlie knew his fishing spots. Would definitely go again!!. Thank you Charlie.
Did a 8 hour trip with Captain Brad
The best trip we ever had Brad told us how to fish for gag grouper
We did great Brad is very experienced on how to fish and where to fish
We had such a wonderful experience with Captain Charlie !
Amazing communication from day one, which is something you really don’t find anymore. This was my first time out fishing like this, and he immediately made me feel welcome, comfortable, and completely at ease.
We left with wonderful memories and so much appreciation for the day. Captain Charlie is genuine, personable, and an absolute pleasure to be around. I couldn’t have asked for a better first experience! We highly recommend Charlie and would absolutely book with him again! 🎣❤️
