The past month has been absolutely on fire. Finding live bait such as cigar minnows and scaled sardines, along with squirrel fish have been the keys to getting limits. Dropping a Carolina rig with 30-50 lbs leader and 3-6 oz weights depending on the current has been the key to success. Can't find the live bait schools, no worries chum up the water real good and drop frozen cigar minnows and you should still pick up a few. If snapper is not in play, no need to worry, schools of Mahi have been swarming the deeper wrecks and you always have a chance to pull in a nice king Mackeral or some skip jacks on the troll. Amberjack season is opening up August 1st so get those poppers and plugs ready and hold on when those big AJ's start busting them.

Fishing has been on fire this week. Coming off the full moon and the bite has turned back on for us. Summer's temperatures are rising and so is the fish bite. Book with us to get on the action!

Spanish and King mackerel are in the area in large numbers right now. Red snapper have been the main target when we can fish for them on the weekends.

    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.

    Trip: Inshore Fishing Guide Service

  • ★★★★★
    Capt. James went above and beyond to make our trip the most memorable first trip for our 8 yr old granddaughter. Him and his first mate answer the 1000 questions every 8 yr old asked with a smile on there face . We caught plenty of fish and took time to take all the pictures with the dolphins . The catamaran style boat is smooth in the water helping to make this first experience a great memory.
