We had the best time. Captain Alex made sure to put us on some fish and even got to see some dolphins playing.

We booked a fishing trip, but unfortunately the original charter ended up being double-booked. Thankfully, they quickly helped us find a replacement, and Alex was able to take us out on the water. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience! The weather was perfect, the boat was clean and comfortable, and the fish were definitely biting. Alex was knowledgeable, friendly, and made sure everyone had a great time. It was an awesome day on...

Recent Fishing Reports

Early September 2026
September seems to be the magic month if you're looking for additional fish species to put in the box! Red Snapper and Triggerfish season is in full swing with Amberjack, Red Grouper, and Gag Grouper added to the list of fish to keep this month! Be sure to book a longer trip if you're wanting more time to tackle all of the species mentioned. Get a group of 6 people, whether family, buddies, or colleagues, and let's get out on the water for a fun-filled day!
/
Early August 2026
The trolling bite has been off this month, so we've focused on bottom fish species for the fish box! With Red Snapper still in season and Triggerfish season opened August 1st, our customers get to experience the tug action of both fish! Come join us for a fun filled day on the water and explore the beautiful Gulf views and its natural habitat!
/
Mid July 2026
The Snapper bite has been really good lately. We've managed to get our limit of Red Snapper on all trips so far, as well as picking up a "bonus" fish (Mangrove Snapper) occasionally. The trolling bite has been off due to the heavy rain water that we've recently gotten. Get a group of 6 together and Let's Go Fishing!
