About Your Trip
Join Captain Chris for a relaxed and exciting inshore and flats fishing experience in calm, shallow waters less than 5 feet deep. These trips are perfect for anglers of all ages and experience levels, especially families with small children or anyone who prefers a smoother ride without the worry of seasickness. Even on windier days, the protected grassy flats and mangrove shorelines provide comfortable fishing conditions and steady action.
This style of fishing focuses on
exploring productive shallow-water habitats where a wide variety of species feed and move with the tides. Despite the shallow depth, these waters are home to impressive fish and offer the exciting possibility of landing big catches in skinny water. Anglers often find that the visual aspect of flats fishing adds an extra level of excitement as fish appear in clear, shallow areas.
Depending on conditions and time of year, you may target Redfish, Snook, Flounder, Seatrout, Sheepshead, Mangrove Snapper, Cobia, Spanish Mackerel, shallow-water Grouper, and even small Sharks. These fish can be caught using a variety of techniques including live bait, soft plastics, and cut bait, giving anglers a hands-on and engaging fishing experience.
Captain Chris provides all tackle, bait, and fishing licenses, making the trip simple and hassle-free from start to finish. All ages are welcome, and the trip is designed to be approachable while still offering plenty of action for more experienced anglers.
Whether you are looking for a peaceful day on the water, an introduction to saltwater fishing, or the chance to sight-cast to fish in shallow water, Captain Chris delivers a fun and flexible experience tailored to your group.
Come enjoy the beauty of the flats and mangroves and discover why inshore fishing with Captain Chris is one of the most enjoyable ways to experience coastal waters.
