When Tarpon season picks up (May - July), don’t miss the opportunity to enter into battle with this world-famous beast. If you’re lucky enough to land a monster one, you may be fighting for 3 hours. Keep an eye out to see him leap out of the water. Just make sure to be in contact with Captain Scott in the days leading up to your trip, as pick-up locations may vary depending on conditions. Please, have in mind that 735-pound is the weight limit combined for guests, which is usually equal to 3 adults or 2 adults with 2 kids.

Scott is a knowledgeable fisherman and great guy who want his customers happy! Not a big operation that takes your money and runs through the motions like we’ve had in the past. The weather wasn’t great, but Scott worked to put my son and I on some fish. ...Read More

If you have a chance, take it. As an avid muskey and walleye fisherman this trip changed my outlook and future travel plans. Sight fishing and hooking into one of these giants is unreal. Counting the days until the next opportunity.

Captain Scott couldn’t have shown my family and I a better time! We caught a ton of fish, saw a bunch of dolphins, listened to great music, and witnessed an amazing sunset. On top of it all, Captain Scott saved a pelican that was caught on a line by another ...Read More
