Fishing has been good on artificial baits, trout, and flounder along the Intracoastal waterway. Redfish have started showing up in schools on the flats and are eating artificial and fresh cut bait.

The trout bite has been good with the occasional redfish- should get even better over the coming months.

    Trip: 1/2 Day Fishing Adventure

    My family of 6 (3 teens,3 adults) booked a 6 hour deep sea fishing trip with Todd and Fernando. They were very knowledgeable and so helpful considering we had zero experience with deep sea fishing and half of us were a little sea sick. My husband and I had an amazing time. Todd knew just where you take us to get the fish and if it was a miss he'd move us along to the next spot . Fernando was so hard working and helpful with myself and the kids. I never once had to bait a hook or remove a fish. He was patient with my family and thoroughly explained how to manovour the reel and exactly what to do. There was a bathroom and air conditioned room if needed. I'd definitely book again.
