Birds are working with some nice speckled trout being caught using live shrimp or plastic, water temp holding in the uper 80's, and morning tides are extremely high so fishing on top of reefs and structures.

Trout and redfish have been good up until mid morning while drifting using live bait. Anchor fishing the potholes while using fresh cut mullet has also been producing when we have some wind.

Mark was a great guide. I’ve been on many charters but Mark definitely took things to a whole new level. He made sure we caught a fish and helped us the entire catch. Mark is very knowledgeable in his craft and I’ll definitely be returning to him in the near future.

Captain John, put us on fish even though a cold front moved through the night before and wind was screaming from the north east. Had a blast. Look forward to booking a trip with him again in the fall
