Here's some from today's trip. We were back in Flamingo again, catching snook in the 17- 26in range. Had a slot red pull hook at the boat. We ended up with 14 Snook to hand.

Peacock Bass and Clown Knife Fish bite has been excellent! Live bait and morning light have been producing the best bite!

It can be overwhelming looking for the right fishing Captain coming from out of state. Let us save you some time. I would highly recommend Captain Dave. He knows where you put your on fish. He was a lot of fun to share fishing stories with and it was the best fishing day ever for my son. 5 stars!

Highly, emphatically, and wholeheartedly recommend Justin. He is THE BEST. Not only is Justin uber knowledgeable, but he is a fantastic instructor. I learned so much from a day on the water with Justin, caught some epic fish, and had an absolutely wonderful time. I can not recommend Justin enough. I am already looking forward to getting back on his boat and fishing with him again. He is a phenomenal guide—and it is so clear that he loves what he does, and does he ever do it well!

Roy was an absolute blast to spend time with on the water. Many fish were caught including largemouth bass and some sunnies. I got lucky with a cancellation and it was a 1:1 experience. We both fished and talked about everything under the sun. Good times!

Trip: Everglades Peacock Bass/Largemouth
★★★★★
Absolute blast with Captain Steve! We went a few miles offshore and fished for Goliath grouper. Caught several in the 30-50 lb range, one 85+ lb, one 185+ lb, and hooked a world class Goliath Grouper but ended up breaking the line on structure! Couldn’t recommend a better guide to go out and land some huge fish. We will definitely head out with Steve again when we come back to town, highly recommend!
