Fall season for red snapper is in September. Sharks are biting good, Mackerel are showing up, Mahi should be good in the Middle of August and September

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.

Well snapper season has been busy. We are staying bowed up out there. We are still catching some nice amberjacks, King Mackeral, and snappers. With the full moon and tides, the bite during the day has been challenging. However, there are still lots of fish out there showing up on the fish finder. The challenge to enticing a bite exists. We recommend scaling down on your leader size and floating some live bait out there to entice a nice hookup. If snappers aren't your thing, the sharks have been aggressive and there is a huge potential to hook up on an 8-10 footer. Mahi have moved in, if you see fish busting the surface throw a top water, or gotcha plug at the boil, you'll be surprised to what may be swimming below! It's been a hot, hot summer, stay hydrated and keep plugging. Now that the lunar cycle is changing, we expect the bite to get even stronger. Tight lines and we hope to see ya out on the water.

Well the season is finally starting to heat up. Through March and April you can expect a hot sheepshead bite. We have been catching tank sheepshead and redfish regularly fishing structure and the jetties on our inshore areas. The Spanish Mackerel have moved inside to the pass and inner bay areas for a great opportunity to pick them up on an inshore troll.
offshore the fishing has been spectacular with various catches of keeper Triggerfish, vermillion snappers, and seabass. Red snappers are abundant, however, they are catch and release at this time. We have picked up some great catches trolling baits to include Wahoo, and some heavy fighting amberjacks.
Although the water temps are cooler than normal, when you can find a good temperature break, you can expect some great hookups. As we progress through April, we look forward to warmer water temps and the fish to get more active.
April and May are some of the best times to fish in the Pensacola area as there are numerous opportunities to catch quality offshore action.
No matter what you choose, inshore or offshore, the action is hot and you will enjoy fishing with us!

Last week, the trout and Pompano bite was red hot. A few Sheepshead are starting to arrive. Also several black drum got a ride to the dock. Awesome way to finish out the year.

    Tough trip this morning. Got on a few big trout early, but tough fishing. Mitch was an absolute excellent captain. Took great care of our crew. We really enjoyed the day with him and look forward to another trip.

    Captain Mitch was fantastic and we had a great time. We caught lots of fish, had great conversations, and made memories my son will always remember. The boat was spotless and Captain Mitch knew where the fish were. Highly recommend to anyone looking for some good fishing.

    Excellent trip, got our limit of Red Snapper. Older boat but in good condition. Deck hand kept us baited up and after catch right back in the water. When bait slowed Dale moved quickly to different location and back on the bait. Good experience for my two novice 15 year old young men. Definitely recommend my experience with Dale. Just showed our “ boarding pass” and on our way Got our limit of Red Snapper. Dale put us on the bite and our deck hand kept baited up and handle our catch. Would use this service again. Thanks again to Dale and crew.

    I highly recommend Mitch. He's friendly, laid back and great with kids. He worked hard for us to find redfish. We moved around a lot as needed. I would definitely book with Mitch again.
