The fishing has been phenomenal lately, getting into our spring trends with higher tides and strong bite inshore. Snook, redfish, trout and tarpon have been the big targets along with Spanish Mackerel, Jack Crevalle, mangrove snapper and others. White bait is prevalent throughout the sound and that's what these predatory fish love to eat. Plenty of fun fights everyday fishing bar lines, grass flats and mangrove islands.

Starting to chase tarpon now
The harbor is still at 72°. The fish are fighting hard. They are big this year and a lot of them.

    My wife and I had an offshore trip planned but due to weather it got canceled. We adjusted and captain yani set us up with captain Kyle boner. We caught Snook, jack crevalle,catfish, mangrove snapper, needle fish, speckled trout, gator trout, Angie caught a shark and we both caught seagulls... we enjoyed a show from a dolphin who was waiting for us to release short Snook. Good fishing. Kyle told us about the temp. And they fried the fish he cleaned for us and it was delicious. Great communication between all. Highly recommend yani and Kyle.

    Alex was a great guide, knowledgeable, patience, we found the tarpon and snook but we just couldn't get them to bite. Some days you're the hammer some days you're the nail. Definitely be back again.

    Trip: Flats And Backcountry Fishing

  • ★★★★★
    We had 4 of us and two kids one was 5 Scott was so patient with the kids and very interactive with everyone explaining each fish we caught- we caught 10 different species of fish that we boated but also had a shark and tarpon on. I would definitely recommend Scott to anyone who is looking for a great fishing captain.

    Trip: Shallow Waters, Big Memories

  • ★★★★★
    Capt. Jacob put us on tarpon early and often. One hook-up and quickly gone after one nice leap from the water. We had our chances early with plenty of fish around. Jacob kept up the hunt and our lack of fly casting wasn't a problem for the Captain. After we got more comfortable, we were able to land this nice tarpon on a fly. Something I have dreamed about for a while. Thank you Captain Experiences.
