Had a nice 4 hour trip today, sadly we couldn't keep the Red Snappers (out of season). but got on some big Vermillion Snapper.

Sharks and wicked thunderstorms are reining terror on the gulf coast. Vermillion snapper bite is great. Some king mackerel getting caught close as well. Red snapper are plentiful enough to catch a few but the bite is not on fire

Redfish are beginning to show up in big schools in the bay. Offshore the Vermilion, snapper, triggerfish, red snapper bite, is still strong.

Well it's the end of September and fishing has been outstanding. There is a variety of species still being caught offshore. Snappers, triggerfish, Mackeral, and Mahi are still actively chasing baits. Stopping to sabiki for live sardines and cigar minnows has been effective for targeting those offshore species. We can expect as the waters continue to cool down to see a slower bite as those big fish move further out. Therefore, bouncing around from spot to spot seems to be the key to pick up those big ones still lurking around.
Inshore, the mangrove snapper and sharks are still plentiful on the bridges in the bays and any structure you can find. The big bull reds are starting to push inshore and we look forward to targeting those big schools as we progress into October and November.
There is still plenty of fish to be caught so don't put up those rods yet and let's get out there for some great fall saltwater action.

    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.

    Mitch was a great guide and boat and equipment was top notch! Been fishing with alot of guides and his care for equipment and gear was unreal and he was a great guy to spend the day with my son and father! If I could give him 10 star we would! Got to go fish with him!

    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.
