About Your Trip

Jump on board for an unforgettable 4-hour sport fishing adventure along the beautiful waters of Flamingo! This trip is perfect for anyone looking to experience the excitement of fishing while enjoying a relaxed and fun time out on the ocean.

During the trip, you’ll enjoy an easygoing day on the water with ice-cold beers, refreshing drinks, tasty snacks, and fresh fruit included to keep you comfortable and energized throughout the adventure.

We will be targeting some of the most exciting inshore species in the area, including roosterfish, red snapper, rainbow runner, blackfin tuna, grouper, and powerful jack crevalle. And if luck is really on your side, you might even hook into a mahi-mahi! Every trip is a little different, which is part of what makes fishing so exciting.

With years of local experience, our captain knows these waters like the back of his hand and will take you to some of the best fishing spots around. In fact, he didn’t earn the nickname “Captain Rooster” for nothing—roosterfish are one of his specialties!

Whether you’re an experienced angler or trying sport fishing for the first time, this trip is designed to be fun, relaxed, and memorable. Come enjoy the ocean, the scenery, and the thrill of the catch while creating an experience you won’t forget.
