Well temperatures in Everglades National Park are back to normal and their fish are starting to behave as they're supposed to starting to see a lot of trout redfish, snook, black drum, sheep, head, and snapper all over the Everglades and in the interior of the park on the outside Florida Bay and the Gulf of Mexico. I have reports of really big cobia about 20 miles out in the golf. Also big snappers and mackerel are biting pretty hard out in Florida Bay and the golf that's my fishing report for February 2 February 4 February 7, February 8 and I have a trip on February 12.

The fishing has been decent. There's a biomass of trout in the bay right now and they're hungry the water temps are equalizing and thusly the snook have started bighting again the red fish we were blessed with a few weeks ago have seemingly left, mackerel in the outer bay and gulf are chewing the bottom paint off and if you can make it out there the cobia are bighting in the gulf. Around town small snapper can be found pretty easy and plenty of Jack action as well.

With the cold fronts in the past, the winter months have produced warmer water temperatures and even hotter fishing.

Trip: South Florida Inshore Fishing
★★★★★
Chris was outstanding as a captain. Aside from is plentiful fishing knowledge and keeping us on bites all day long he was good to talk to and kept us on the fish the entire time we were out there. Even with a shorter half day trip Chris made sure to get us as much fish as possible in the shortened amount of time. The boat was very well kept and gave us many pointers as to how to prepare and cook the fish we caught. Would definitely recommend and hope to be back very soon!

Paul and first mate Gary worked hard all day on our 8 hour trip offshore. Targeting Blackfin Tuna, Mackerel and Sailfish all day and keeping us over the fish with consistent bites. Would definitely recommend to anybody who wants a good experience offshore and will hopefully be back again in the future.

It is always the right thing to trust professionals. Captain Pete and his mate Chuck are such. The day started kind of slow, but they were able to adjust in time and turn it into a success. We caught a variety of tasty fish which Chuck skillfully filleted. 👍👍👍👍👍
