Preciate it. Got one trip this year off captain experiences. Not a lot. Merry Christmas

Fall bite is good and will continue thru the new year.

Exciting time here along the forgotten coast. There's chrome in the water. In the last week, things have really turned around. Our weather patterns have gotten their act together, the water has warmed up and the early season tarpon are showing up. We are getting them dialed in and launching silver king rockets every chance we can. Fishing tarpon around the correct tide allows for some fun days fishing redfish then changing gears and chasing tarpon.

The weather is starting to break here on the Forgotten Coast. Just in time for spring break, redfish are invading the flats, and oh boy, are they hungry? Fish have been seen cruising the outside bars and chasing the tide up to the shoreline. A well-placed fly, soft plastic, or gold spoon has been getting the job done. Take a trip south to Apalachicola and let me introduce you to our hot inshore fishery.

This stud 31 pound redfish ate a soft plastic bounced on the bottom at a special spot we refer to as Jurassic Park.

Apalachicola fishing is heating up as the weather turns cold. Redfish are haunting the creeks and flats, foraging on everything they can find to eat. Soft plastics and flies make excellent offerings this time of year. Off the beaches Bull redfish are starting to invade the shoals and inshore sandbars, chasing schools of baitfish and shrimp. Poppers and topwaters have been getting smashed with explosive frequency. All in all, if you can brave the cold, the fishing is quite hot!

    Great day on the bay with Captain Dwayne. He was super patient with our grandsons ages 8 and 13. We had a total group of nine. I was in the boat with Captain Dwayne, my wife , daughter-in-law and two grandsons. We had a second boat which Dwayne had arranged with Captain Tommy, my two sons and two granddaughters ages 11 and 13.we kept 68 fish between the two boats!! We all had a fun time. Thanks Dwayne and Tommy!!!

    Trip: Bay & Flats Inshore Fishing Charter

  • ★★★★★
    We had an absolute blast on our charter with Captain Krista. She was amazing and went above and beyond to make sure we had the best experience possible from start to finish. We caught so many fish throughout the trip, and as an added bonus, we got to see tons of dolphins and sea turtles along the way. It was such a memorable experience and one we will be talking about for a long time. If you’re looking for a fun, exciting, and unforgettable day on the water, we highly recommend booking a trip with Captain Krista. We can’t wait to come back and do it again!

    Dwayne was awesome! He stayed in touch with weather and wind updates, took us out a day earlier than planned so we could avoid inclimate weather. Dwayne put us on trout and we limited out within an hour. Dwayne talked alot about the history of the area, my son has ambitions of being a fishing charter one day, Dwayne had alot of information about boating and fishing regulations. The boat is perfect and the equipment he has is perfect for this type of fishing. My son ended up catching the inshore "Grand Slam" trout, flounder and redfish. The best part of the trip was tripletail fishing, Dwayne put us on em and my son caught 2 really nice keepers, such a cool species. We had a blast this was the perfect inshore trip.

    Captain Krista was great to travel around the ocean with. She knew exactly where to go to find the fish. She was great with the kids and taught them exactly how to fish. We got a little sea sick during so we made a detour and found some amazing shells and got to see so many dolphins. Definitely a trip to remember! Can't wait to come back and do it again.

    Jared was awesome! He is super nice and very patient with us as being inexperienced. He knows the waters very well and we were able to get some really great catches, and plentiful fish. I highly recommend him to anyone.
