Fishing has been good but the high winds have kept us mostly inshore. Inshore the sea trout, spanish mackerel and snapper bite has been good. When we've been able to get off shore kingfish and bonitas have kept us busy. The sailfish are here and the bite will continue to...

The sailfish are starting to bite, great king Fish, action and wahoo bite before, and after the full moon with the cooler weather, the reef fishing has been great as well cooler temperatures bringing these fish to the shallow reefs, as far as the Peacockbass, we are averaging over 40 fish per trip in the southern Everglades the bite is on fire, And the Inshore fishing in the Florida Keys has been great catching snow, tarpon, trout, redfish, and tons of jack gravel, mainly on the outgoing tide or the incoming tide, trying to catch some movement to produce a bite.

We had a nice time with Taylor. Wish we could have caught more fish. We got one conus that we had to release. My husband is a very experienced fisherman and I believe if we would have gone to deeper waters it would of been more of a success, but still a good rime

It’s a shame that I can only give Captain Ron and Damien 5 stars because they deserve so many more. We booked a charter for four hours at 7AM and we were hoping to catch some Tuna and Mahi Mahi. Captain Ron delivered on both. We also caught a bunch of bonitos and a king fish. Captain Ron was very accommodating, friendly, and a professional. My family and I enjoyed ourselves and got everything we wanted out of this trip & more. A HUGE thank you to you Captain Ron and Damien and we are looking forward to booking again with you in the future!

What a perfect day to be out on the water! I may have gotten a little queasy and didn’t reel in as many fish as I’d hoped, but that didn’t take away from all the fun we had. The kids and our whole crew had an amazing time! Huge thanks to Captain Lucas and Mate Damian for making it such a great experience! 🎣☀️🚤
