Fishing has been pretty good for big trout not a lot of fish but large ones - last 6 trips we have released 16 speckled trout between 20-28.5" . A few flounder here and there and the redfish have been hit and miss.

we had such a wonderful time on our charter. Jordan our guide was so patient with our group and everyone had a memorable experience. We really appreciate the crew actively seeking places to maximize our chances to catch fish. And we came away with a few keepers. The sign up was very convenient and I appreciated Dale reaching out to answer any questions we had before the charter.

Despite challenging conditions from a tropical storm moving through the area, we had a great experience with Patrick. He worked hard throughout the trip, staying in communication with other guides and doing everything he could to get us into the best fishing spots possible. While the weather and rough water made fishing difficult, Patrick was knowledgeable, professional, and a lot of fun to spend the day with. Even though we didn’t catch as many fish as we had hoped, our group had a great time together and thoroughly enjoyed the experience.

It was a good fishing trip. The weather was rough but we still caught fish none were keepers. Probably missed a nice catch due to lack of experience.
