These past few weeks we've been finding mahi in 300 to 550 feet of water when we find a good weed line, and in between we've been catching some scattered blackfin tuna and skipjack tuna

Plenty of great fishing and visuals during the winter down here in South Florida! Redfish and bonefish have been plentiful and large goliath grouper stepping away from the shadows looking for some sun. The snook fishing is also picking up so come on down and check it all out for yourself.

Tavernier, Florida
Reported 4 months ago
After a back-to-back cold front and a pretty nasty die off with water temps in the 50's, things have finally started returning to normal. Reefs and wrecks turned out a solid mackerel bite, a decent yellowtail bite, and plenty of muttons in the shallower reefs . Even had some surprise sailfish, and nice wahoo as well.

Bayside has been very productive on the mangrove snapper front with some nice-sized fish for the box and plenty of action as well.

We've been catching 5 miles from shore. Those are just some of the fish we caught.

The inshore fishing has been pretty good!

January has been hot and cold! And by that I mean hot fishing despite the cold weather! Most of our fish have been resilient of the colder water temps and still very happy. When the sun is out, so are the fish and that's what makes our winter months fantastic for fishing.

    Kevin was an amazing guide. He was very knowledgeable and provided easy step by step instruction instructions while fighting 2 - 5 foot lemon sharks in less than 1/2 hour before daylight faded. Both were unkooked boat side with great video and pictures. His boat is clean and organized making it safe and easy to move around the boat while battling a catch of a lifetime for 2 Wisconsinites. Thanks Kevin. See you soon.

    We had an amazing time iguana hunting! There were thunderstorms in the distance when we arrived, and I honestly thought the trip would be canceled—but our guides, Wesley and Matt, knew exactly what they were doing. We never got a single drop of rain and they spotted way more iguanas than we ever would have on our own. The only thing I’d do differently is bring my own flashlight. They had plenty to share, but not enough for everyone to have one at the same time. Highly recommend this adventure!

    I booked a trip with Jason as a gift for my husband/father for Father’s Day. Four people in total went on the trip, three adults and one child. Everyone who went on the trip caught fish and had an incredible time! Even my 9-year-old son loved the trip! Jason was knowledgeable in ways that seriously impressed my husband. Jason was kind and helpful through out the trip. My husband said that Jason was helping him before he even asked for help! The group recommends Jason 10/10 and would go another trip with him.
