Fishing has still been a lil tough with high pressure and high winds but the last 2 days have started picking back up. These boys had never caught a redfish but we managed a few with the best being 27 1/2

Ladies have been giving the new Bubba rods a workout! Trout are good on croakers, bull reds have been solid with a good incoming tide, and slot reds are finally showing up. Flounder gigging is also heating up!

Fishing has been hit and miss with all the different wind directions, super high then super low tides and the swing in temps and cold fronts that seem to be hanging around. Once we have normal temps,wind directions and keep normal tides the fishing should really turn on here in...

    Captain Pat went out of his way to make sure our trip a huge success. He even went a few minutes over our time just to make sure my 13 year old daughter was able to put that one last fish in the boat. She will remember that moment for the rest of her life thanks to Pats hard work and dedication. I can’t recommend him enough!

    One of the hardest working fellows I have ever seen. I cannot believe he was not completely exhausted. Not a great night, but not for lack of effort. We corralled a few flounder and, before dusk set, we caught a few drum and trout. Fine fellow.
