Spring time means all engines go! With constant warmer temps, all species are happy and settled into their regular behavior patterns. Plenty of opportunities to go after the many targeted species we have to offer both on fly and spin. Come out, book a guide and see what South Florida has to offer.

Big snook, redfish, sharks, and tarpon highlight the current fishing report. As we get into middle April, the fishing has been heating up weekly and becoming outstanding. With the water finally back firmly in the 70s and close to 80 degrees, the bait is plentiful. Lots of quality mangrove snapper, big jack crevalle, and sheepshead are also bring smiles, and pulling drags!

With plentiful bait comes big snook. We are hooking at least one really big fish on every trip, and on most trips we are hammering the mid size, and smaller snook. to put it into perspective, in terms...

With plentiful bait comes big snook. We are hooking at least one really big fish on every trip, and on most trips we are hammering the mid size, and smaller snook. to put it into perspective, in terms
of freshwater fishing back home for many folks, its like catching a dozen 2 – 3 pound bass or walleye, that fight twice as hard, with the opportunity to catch a huge one.

The big redfish have also been gobbling up bait bending rods, and ripping drags right along with the snook. We haven’t been doing anything specific for the redfish, they are just on the move with the warming water and the oncoming burst of life the water brings every spring and early summer. This time of year, the big reds seem to be in the same spots as the big snook, which adds to the intrigue when you see a huge boil and hear that drag start squealing.

This past week, the highlight for most trips, especially with the kids are the bonnethead sharks. Yesterday I believe we caught 10, and these young boys wanted nothing more than to see a shark. So how about 10?! Using light tackle with shrimp as bait, they put up a great fight and were great for the table as well!

    We had Dominick as our captain and he was fantastic. We didn’t catch a ton of fish but it wasn’t for a lack of trying it was just one of those things. We did catch fish just not a ton or anything large on this trip. Would definitely book again.

    Tyler is a great guide who showed up early with live bait he caught earlier in the morning. He checked to confirm what we were hoping to catch, snook and tarpon. He knew where to go in rookery bay, aptly rebaited the fishing hooks. We caught a snook, several young snapper and jacks, and then several athletic tarpon that put up a good fight. He told us fishing stories and we saw the beautiful Marco island and rookery bay islands where dolphins and sea turtles were swimming. He provided many opportunities for us to catch big fish! It was a great time for the family.

    Dominic was our captain. We had a wonderful time and caught a number and a variety of fish. I have a difficult time walking and getting out of the boat. Dom soent at least an additional 2 hours for my brother to locate a wheelchair and get me back on the dock. A true professional is Dominic!!

    Best fishing trip everrrrrrr! we got 9 snappers that we could bring home and eat! Besides those we could keep, we got countless amounts of small snappers we won a Guinness world record for the smallest snapper in our family history. Plus, we caught and released 3 catfish and a jellyfish! Thank you Captain Tim! (From the birthday boy :))
