The tarpon bite has been on fire. 🔥 Lots of migratory fish showing up, makes for a lot of options on where and how we can target them. Cut and live bait in the mornings, and crabs around the last full moon in the afternoon/ evenings. We have some nice mangrove snapper around if you are looking for table fare, and the snook redfish and trout have remained steady if you are looking for a fun easy catch and release bite.

The water temperatures are perfect and the bite is on. Everything is biting snook and redfish are exploding on scaled sardines, large trout have been in good numbers. The mackerel bite has been great with fish up to 27 inches!

Tarpon and permit fishing is on fire right now, and it’s the perfect time to get on the water. Big tarpon are rolling and feeding hard, giving you a real shot at an unforgettable fight, while nearshore permit are showing up in numbers and ready to eat.
This is prime time—these opportunities don’t last long, and the bite has been as good as it gets. If you’ve been thinking about chasing tarpon or checking a permit off the list, now’s your window.
Spots are filling fast, so don’t wait. Reach out and lock in your tarpon and permit trip while...

The spring bite is on! Snook, trout and redfish are biting on the inshore seen and rock piles out in Tampa bay are producing sheepshead and large mackerel.

Dillon knows his stuff and is a great dude, also great with the kids (teenagers). We hooked into a bunch of trout, mackerel, grouper. I would definitely head out with him again and would recommend him to others.
We had a great time on this trip. Booked this for my brother’s bachelor trip and couldn’t be happier I chose Dillon and his crew. Great guides and great people! Thanks for having us.
FIVE STARS!!! Pick him every time! I got the trip for my husband for Father’s Day and Dillon was awesome! He took us all over and we had so many fish to choose from for our hotel grill! He knows these waters well! Ladies I didn’t have to bait the hook either!
Got us on the fish right away. Cannot tell you how many trips I have been on where just catching a few is a problem. Dillon knew exactly where to go and moved when the fishing changed. We caught so many species I cannot recall them all. Way over 20 fish on the trip with at least 5 Keeper
mangrove snappers. Highly recommend this captains experience!!!
Captain Dillon was awesome! As newbies to fishing, he spent a lot of time teaching us about the ins and outs of fishing, equipment, tricks, bait, fish… it was an amazing experience and we can’t wait to go out with him again!
We had a great time! Captain Dillon is professional, knowledgeable, and he helped us the entire time. He was ready when we arrived and had everything we needed for the trip. We will definitely book another trip with Captain Dillon!
