Still kind of rough (windy) out but caught some decent fish today. Amberjacks, red snapper, seabass and let a huge sandbar shark go. Soon the weather will be perfect for all kinds of anglers.

The Spanish mackerel bite is picking up everyday with the Atlantic bonita starting to show up! The Atlantic bonita bite should only get better in the next few weeks. These fish are very tasty…

We had a fantastic day fishing with Captain Cord. He found where the fish were hitting, was very friendly and took care of everything.

Drew was a phenomenal guide. Myself and a friend were able to smoke 3 redfish between us thanks to his tips. Drew was super patient and extremely knowledgeable. As a more novice fisherman, he was very good at teaching basic casting and presentation techniques with artificial lures. This was a great introduction to fishing from a vessel without the stress of a large multi-party charter. Worth every penny!

We had a fantastic time. Caught lots of fish and enjoyed talking to Jason. He put us on fish immediately and moved to another location if the fish stopped biting. Never had time to eat the snacks we brought. Will book with Jason the next time we go fishing
