I had an awesome time with Tom and little Captain Walker today! What started as a 4 hour off shore trip turned into an absolute catch fest.

I can honestly say this was one of the most fun trips we've had all year. Walker kept everyone competitive by making up a point system where different species were worth different points... except Grandpa claimed the rules weren't exactly fair!

We spent the day laughing, catching fish, and making memories. Hopefully we got little Captain Walker hooked on fishing for life!

P.S. Walker took home the win with 20 points!

Another solid day on the water with Captain’s Experience! Redfish have been fired up, crushing baits along the banks and around structure. Trout bite has been steady on the moving tide with some quality fish mixed in, and flounder are starting to show up in the usual ambush spots. Live bait and light tackle getting it done across the board. Great summer pattern shaping up—book your trip and get in on the action!

Nearshore Report Thursday, May 21
Ran about 8 miles offshore Thursday and found clean water with temps around 78°F. The kingfish are definitely showing up and the Spanish mackerel bite was solid with good numbers around.If the weather stays decent, the fishing should only keep getting better over the next few weeks

    Frank was a very knowledgeable guide and put us on the fish, even in less than perfect weather. Being a native of the north Florida coast, his knowlege of the local waters is a great asset!

    Frank was the best captain! He has great knowledge of the area and offers many different fishing experiences. He was also very encouraging and helpful when reeling in our monster of a fish! We definitely plan on taking another trip with him as our captain soon!

    Trip: Half Day Bull Reds

  • ★★★★★
    Captain Zac is incredible! His local knowledge and expertise of the waterways, flora, fauna and alligator behavior are unparalleled. He's smart, professional, incredibly hard working, kind, funny, easy going and LOADS OF FUN for Hunters of all ages. My family of 4 and I booked him and everyone had an amazing time from the 60 yo, down to the 12yo. Book Captain Zac, you will not regret it!

    Trip: Any Size Central FL Gator Hunt

  • ★★★★★
    We have been on a few charters, but this one was, by far, the best! Joe was AMAZING in every way. We caught so many fish, despite the season being a bit behind, (which he was very upfront about), he was personable, kind, friendly, knowledgeable, fun, entertaining - literally everything you could want or need in a guide. We will not choose any other guide whenever we are here - which is every 3 months due to our Mayo visits. As some may know, Mayo can be exhausting and stressful, but after our appointments, our time spent with Joe out fishing, honestly made all of the stress, worries, and cares disappear. I could not recommend him enough!!

    My husband and I had a great fishing day with Captain Frank. While the weather conditions, and tide, wasn’t fully cooperating, that was completely out of anyone’s control. Captain Frank is a great guide, very patient, calm, and easy going. It feels like you’re out on the water with an ole friend when you’re with him. We caught some speckled trout and we were very happy with day. We created new memories.😊
