Cut bait on the hook and free line back with the chum. On the flats, we’re using live and dead thread ins and greenbacks to catch bull redfish and snook. Mostly smaller snook in the flats. Dead Bait is working just as good as live bait. Bite has been good on the snook as well.

    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!

    Trip: Night Time Bridge Fishing

  • ★★★★★
    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!

    Best guide ever! Hitting great trout like we wanted all day, then my son landed a prehistoric grouper, reeled that sucker in for a while! Capn Dillon put us right on the beast’s door step, all we had to do was knock on the door, BAM!💥

    Dillion was really knowledgeable fishing the area, and some great conversation. We got a bunch of sea trout, sheepshead, and some black snapper. 10/10 recommend taking a trip with him
