Been catching snapper and Key west grunts and taking the smaller ones and going out to the reef and as of late. We’ve been catching monsters snook out on the Reef! All my clients think they need to book a full day trip but we can usually get all the fishing you’d like done in 4 hours with how hot it’s been!

In the bay we’re catching mangrove snapper and grouper. We’ve been using a #2 circle hook with 14 pound leader for the snapper and 30 pound leader for the grouper. Cut bait on the hook and free line back with the chum. On the flats, we’re using live and dead thread ins and greenbacks to catch bull redfish and snook. Mostly smaller snook in the flats. Dead Bait is working just as good as live bait. Bite has been good on the snook as well.

    Dillon knows his stuff and is a great dude, also great with the kids (teenagers). We hooked into a bunch of trout, mackerel, grouper. I would definitely head out with him again and would recommend him to others.

    FIVE STARS!!! Pick him every time! I got the trip for my husband for Father’s Day and Dillon was awesome! He took us all over and we had so many fish to choose from for our hotel grill! He knows these waters well! Ladies I didn’t have to bait the hook either!

    Got us on the fish right away. Cannot tell you how many trips I have been on where just catching a few is a problem. Dillon knew exactly where to go and moved when the fishing changed. We caught so many species I cannot recall them all. Way over 20 fish on the trip with at least 5 Keeper mangrove snappers. Highly recommend this captains experience!!!

    Captain Dillon was awesome! As newbies to fishing, he spent a lot of time teaching us about the ins and outs of fishing, equipment, tricks, bait, fish… it was an amazing experience and we can’t wait to go out with him again!
