Fall fishing is as good as it gets right now. We are catching a nice variety of fish and in good numbers. Most days we are seeing speckled trout, redfish, black drum, and really big bluefish.

fall inshore fishing is well underway with an amazing mixed back bite. We are still seeing a lot of redfish, but the speckled trout and black drum have made a strong showing as well. Additionally the old drum bite is still well underway for those that are seeing a trophy...

Captain Joseph and Captain Chaz were excellent guides and have expert skills in fishing! Captain Joseph has so much knowledge with a bonus of loads of personality! We could tell that he truly enjoyed being able to put us on the fish! It was a wonderful experience that we would gladly race to experience again and again! Captain Chaz is also a wonderful guide and worked tirelessly to keep our poles going and the fish into the cooler! Because of his efforts we headed back to Indiana with a cooler full of fish! Thank you so much, Captain Joseph and Captain Chaz!

Captain Joe and Chaz will put you on some fish! We had a terrific time reeling in bluefish and spanish mackerel. I highly recommend booking your next trip with them.

We had an awesome time with capt. Joe. He worked extremely hard to put us on the fish. Water conditions weren't to our favor, But we will be back next year. Can't wait to fish with our new found friend again. And have another great day on the water. ☆☆☆☆☆

Coordinating this trip was a nightmare. I got passed around 3x. Lacking clear communication & response time. Would rather have used another service or booked directly with captain
