This past week we had some spectacular two-hour trips with the younger crowd. Lots of action with some good whiting catches which is great for the dinner table. Had quite a few in the fourteen-to-sixteen-inch range. The backwater trips produced some nice redfish and speckled trout. Most were caught using a live shrimp under a cork. The redfish were in the one-to-four-foot range with the trout being caught anywhere from four feet to 10 feet. There are still the big black drum around with bull redfish being caught at the jetties, when it's not rough.

Jetty fishing is on FIRE 🔥A lot of 3-4hr trips over the last few weeks. When the weather allows you to go. Last 2 days have been a little slower do to the water clarity, but still great fishing.

Captain K runs a very good boat. He knows his equipment, the spots, and the fish. First class experience

Trip: Inshore Charter - 26' World Cat
★★★★★
Not a good trip. Left feeling like a charter took advantage of tourist from out of state. Didn’t fish with li e bait, didn’t have options of fishing spots, and the last spot was refueling dock where boat was refueling while we were fishing. We could have fished off the shore without him at that spot.

Great Trip! I’m a seasoned fisherman but, I brought my sister and girlfriend. Captain Dave has two complete polywogs and me. He did a wonderful job educating the ladies on fishing and TOGETHER, they pulled in the largest fish on the trip! Great Time!

Captain Chris and his guide Clint were exceptional. The experience was top notch. Every detail of each of our desires was taken to heart and they delivered to create a memorable hunt. With that being said, he even asked if there was anything that would help to improve the time we were there. WELL DONE! Chris

Great trip. Brian knows the marine ecology, and educated us about the various species caught at various times of the year. Oh, and the fishing was great. We caught enough Whiting for a large family and friends fish fry. Delicious!!
