We've been back and forth between snook/redfish and snapper/sheepshead fishing. The cold front shut down the white bait, but the shrimp eaters remain hungry! If you're ready to jump on board and have some fun with us today!

The snook, trout and redfish have been on fire especially on the warmer days with some of the larger fish coming out to play! Docks ant mangrove tree lines have been producing well. With the docks also producing sheepshead which are great table fair.

We had a great trip Taylor!! He was a great captain! We caught LOTS of fish. Super knowledgeable and such a pleasure to be around. We will definitely be calling him when we come back to Florida again. Top notch experience! Caught mackerel, trout, groupers, Jack fish, lady fish, lizard fish, catfish and we saw a dolphin. Thank you for a great experience!

Trip: Gulfport Combo Classic

What can I say about this trip. Yes I'm sure we got a bit lucky, but Captain Jake got his own bait, put us on fish immediately and we had a blast. We caught 6 different species on light tackle from spanish mackerel, to catfish, to black tip sharks. It was already an amazing trip. Then we got the heavy tackle out and hooked into a hammerhead, more black tips, and the absolute icing on the cake was a giant 150 lb Tarpon. This was my dream, and Jake made it happen. I couldn't recommend him more. He is very knowledgeable, takes his profession very seriously and is fun and personable at the same time! Do not hesitate to pick captain Jake for your next trip

We had a wonderful time with Captain Andy. He was super friendly and put us on fish right away. This trip was my 9 year daughter's first trip and she was asking to extend the trip the first 30 minutes in. This was truly a family friendly experience. I would and defiantly recommend using Captain Andy again. Thank you Captain Andy for a wonderful time!!!!

Dustin and Mikie put us on the Grouper and snapper had a 6hr trip booked and from the time we stepped on the dock they were on top of their game . The boat was well maintained and equipped with everything you would need for a successful trip . Dustin is a local an knows the water like the back of his hand . I highly recommend them and look forward to our next trip in October. Thank you both for a great trip our wives even had a ball Lol 😝
