Red snapper season is in full swing and they are biting well. We are catching limits on most trips with a few mackerel and jacks in between.

Here are some 5 and 6 hour trips we've ran this week while dodging the weather! Snapper bite still good. A few king mackerel showing up with some Bonita and occasional Mahi Mahi!

Fishing in Gulf is great. And the bay fishing for goldfish has been quite good even on the two hour kids trips for our bay trip going after gulf fish like mango, snapper and flounder, and so forth is producing at least a good catch, if not better. I tend to angle towards the goldfish because they’re better eating, even when I’m going in the bay but if you want to go after the speckle trout and redfish, like the other, the guides I do are as good as they get, we’ve been doing quite well.

    Captain David was really friendly and had the knowledge it took to catch fish. He took extra time to show/teach 9 year old grandson how to catch 4 different species of saltwater fish. Thanks again captain.

    We did the 5 hour trip. It was a blast. The only thing I would chance is taking a longer trip so we could go and catch some of the more “sport fish”. Also I would also recommend the morning! An amazing crew and couldn’t of had a better time!

    We had a great time and caught what we were after, red fish. Even got two keepers! David is a good captain because he didn’t waste time in spots he knew would not get any fish. Kept us on the move and eventually to the spots the fish were at.
