Melissa Fain

Outfitter
Captain Melissa loves the water. She grew up fishing, swimming, and otherwise enjoying all that the Gulf has to offer, and decided to pass that experience on to her clients! She's reeled in everything, and now runs charters from inshore to offshore; if it's on your bucket list, Captain Melissa will do everything she can to help you hook it!
She also loves the nature beauty of Florida's Big Bend area, whether it's the magnificent sunsets, dolphins jumping beside the boat, or the sea turtles that sometimes pop their heads up to check you out.

5 Stars to Melissa and Shady, they put us on the scallops and we limited out. Would highly recommend them for anyone looking for a fantastic time. We will have to try them on the off shore fishing trip next. Thanks for Everything Melissa & Shady.
