Okaloosa Island, Florida

Reported 3 months ago

Water temps are rising and the bite is turning on! Vermillion snapper are beginning to be plentiful and red grouper have been showing up in good numbers. Trigger fish are plentiful as well, but you have to fish through the shorts to get the keepers! As the weather continues to warm up the bite will get even better!

If you want to have a great time and catch lots of fish, look no further!! This was such a fun experience for our family of 4. Captain Heath was the best guide ever!!
