We are transitioning from red snapper season to Amberjack, triggerfish and grouper fishing, fishing has been really good for us all summer. We are looking forward to the next few months with our favorite time of the year coming up, Fall fishing!

Spanish mackerel have made a large showing lately. Along with a few king mackerel. Red Snapper area target on the weekends when the weather allows me to get off the beach a little ways. Mangrove snapper are finally starting to show up in good numbers also.

We had a great time! I didn’t know rays were so resilient that you could get them with an arrow and the would heal within a few days. Our guide Colby was awesome. He found a bunch of rays for us and helped us after each catch. Hew was awesome!
