Reef fishing has been consistently good with constant action on the yellowtail bite and a few good groupers. Inshore fishing has been steady with the lane snapper bite this week. We have had some fun night fishing trips catching sharks and loading up the cooler with snapper as well.

January has been hot and cold! And by that I mean hot fishing despite the cold weather! Most of our fish have been resilient of the colder water temps and still very happy. When the sun is out, so are the fish and that's what makes our winter months fantastic for fishing.

Jason did a fantastic job hosting our fishing trip! He was friendly, helpful, and attentive throughout the entire experience. He kept all of our reels baited and ready to go, making the trip easy and enjoyable for everyone. Our group of four had a great time, caught plenty of fish, and brought home plenty of fish for dinner. Jason worked hard to make sure we were successful and having fun. We highly recommend booking a trip with him and look forward to fishing with him again in the future!

Had a great time with Captain Mike. He worked hard to help us catch fish. Which we caught all kinds including 9’ sharks. Ended with dolphins play behind our boat as we headed back in. Thank you Captain Mike

My dad and I were able to squeeze in on a charter with Captain Eric fairly last minute which was awesome! He got us both on some sea trout first thing in the morning, lined us up on some tarpon but before I was able to take any shots on the fly rod, we spooked a tarpon and in came the bull sharks. We buzzed over to a different flat where I had shots at both snook and redfish. I didn’t end up making any of my shots with the fly rod but this was also my first saltwater fly fishing experience as well as my first guided trip so it was all pretty new to me. I’m just stoked we were able to get out in the first place. But I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Captain Eric and I certainly wouldn’t turn down another opportunity to have him guide us! He’s quiet but very focused and knowledgeable about the marine life and was able to give me casting tips as well with the fly rods. Thank you again for squeezing us in Eric!

We went out on a day when weather conditions were less than ideal and honestly I wasn’t sure we’d see much action at all. Despite the conditions, Captain Bill’s fishing and boat knowledge kept us in the game. The highlight of the trip was catching a 140lb lb Tarpon, the fight of a lifetime. If you are looking for a local guide who knows his craft, works hard, and has an easy to talk to personality, I would highly recommend Captain Bill.

Book with Captain J!! We had such an amazing time. Me and my aunt got lucky and had the boat to ourselves, he brought us out to great spots. I am beyond overjoyed with the outcome of the charter. We got 14 good eating fish, yellow tail and snapper. And I caught a giant 10ft nurse shark! Definitely the best fight of my life, my body was a wreck the next day lol. We had such an amazing time because of captain j, he baited our hooks for us and took off all the fish. He was ready for everything, and cleaned and prepared all our catches
