Been banging reds. That's about all I have until the water warms and the migratory fish show up. Cobia should be around and the triple tail around Jekyll island should be going good now with the water getting in the upper 60's.

Had a trip last week and we got on the sheepshead pretty good. They are great for eating and a 5 hour trip is usually perfect to get plenty for dinner.

Reds are chewing and happy when sun is out. Stripers are the go to on cloudy days. I haven't been out on the water too much so as of late it has been so nasty out.

Lots of big sea bass and a few big 30-40 pound red drum still hanging around. The water is chilly but it's usually worth it for the dinner table. We are also in the perfect months for the 8 hour offshore trip to catch trigger fish, sea bass, snapper, amberjack, and all sorts of good eating stuff.

One of the bigger redfish from today. Redfish bite has been really good. Caught 43 on a four hour this afternoon from 12 to 34 inches. Should be plenty of slot limit fish in a couple of weeks. Shark bite is wide open. Bunches of 3 to 5 footers with a lot of 6 to 8 footers.

    We had a great trip with Capt. Tyler. He was extremely knowledgeable of the waterway and had key locations that put our entire family on fish. He was also great with our 12 year old son and 10 year old daughter. Keeping us all entertained between the bites. Would highly recommend!!

    We had a fantastic time seeing the dolphins come right up to the boat. And watching my grandson and granddaughter in their glory catching some sharks and other fish. Cory really knew his stuff… we couldn’t have asked for a better guide.
