Inshore fishing has been good with flounder, sheepshead and a good bull redfish bite. Ian has offshore waters stirred up but the bite for bottom fishing has been good for snapper, beeliners, triggerfish and some seabass. As the water cleans up some striking
fish should show up like king mackerel, barracuda, and jacks. Here are pictures of most recent fish.

The fishing has been a little slow but still catching enough to keep the customers happy.

Legal size redfish are spotty but still in good numbers. With the shrimp run ramping up, it can be a little testy getting a consistent bite. But flounder are starting to show in great numbers- fish are still on the smaller side but great action.
Tarpon fishing continues to be red hot in northeast Florida with fish ranging from 40 to 100 lbs.
Bull reds are showing in good numbers in the St Johns river as well with the average fish in the 40in range!

    Bill is the quintessential captain. Informative. Kind. Insightful and aggressive at meeting your expectations. We caught all species we targeted at the outset.

    Best fishing trip ever. Everything was taken care of. All we had to do was catch the fish! We got a little bit of a history tour as well. If we hit a spot with no luck, we kept moving until we did. My family will most definitely be back, hopefully in the fall.

    We had an absolutely amazing day on the water! Captain Charlie was the best—he put us on some really big fish and made the whole experience one we’ll never forget. made lots of wonderful memories, and truly enjoyed every minute of the day. His Southern hospitality, manners, and professionalism were spot on. You can tell he genuinely cares about his customers having a great time. If you’re looking for an incredible fishing experience with a great captain, I highly recommend him. We’ll definitely be back!
