Based out of South Florida, Captain Patrick runs an incredible inshore experience through two of the most iconic fisheries in the region—Biscayne Bay National Park and Everglades National Park. These waters are teeming with life and offer everything from technical sight-casting to drag-screaming battles with some of the hardest-fighting inshore species around.

About Your Trip

Based out of South Florida, Captain Patrick runs an incredible inshore experience through two of the most iconic fisheries in the region—Biscayne Bay National Park and Everglades National Park. These waters are teeming with life and offer everything from technical sight-casting to drag-screaming battles with some of the hardest-fighting inshore species around.

Depending on the trip length you choose and what’s in season, you’ll be targeting a wide range of prized gamefish including Snook, Tarpon, Redfish, Bonefish, Permit, Jack Crevalle, and Great Barracuda. You might also hook into Mangrove and Mutton Snapper, Cobia, Spotted Seatrout, or even a feisty Blacktip Shark. Captain Patrick is dialed into the local bite and will adjust the game plan based on the best fishing conditions for your trip.

He brings a wide range of techniques to the table—fly fishing, drift fishing, jigging, popping, and spinning—so whether you're a seasoned angler or just getting started, he’ll match the approach to your goals and experience. Fly anglers especially will love the opportunity to stalk Bonefish or Permit in ultra-clear shallows, while spin fishers can go after Snook or Tarpon along mangrove edges and channels.

You’ll be fishing aboard a 17’ Maverick flats boat, perfectly built for inshore and backcountry waters. Its shallow draft lets you slip into skinny spots most boats can’t reach, and it’s an ideal platform for up to three anglers to fish comfortably and efficiently.

All gear is included—rods, reels, terminal tackle, lures, live bait, and fly fishing equipment—plus your fishing licenses for the day. Captain Patrick also provides complimentary snacks and drinks to keep you refreshed, and he’ll clean and fillet any legal keepers you’d like to take home.

Born and raised in Buffalo New York grew up fishing the Great Lakes and lower Niagara river. Move to Southwest Florida. I never look back. Spent most of the time guiding in the Gulf of Mexico and the and the Florida Everglades Chokoloskee! Moved out to Hawaii for a couple years fished for bonefish and offshore species then move back to Miami where I’ve made my home working at the Fly Shop of Miami Orvis Ocean Reef and guiding for the last 15 years. I specialize in inshore sight fishing both fly and spin! Love the sport more love sharing it with people from all across the world. Nothing beats fishing with kids and their parents watching the smiles on their face and creating lasting memories they’ll never forget!

Each trip's price is determined by the guide and reflects all associated costs. A significant factor in pricing is often the type of boat and the corresponding fuel expenses.

After booking your trip, we'll connect you directly with your guide to discuss additional details. In the meantime, our team is here to answer any questions via email, text, or phone.
