About Your Trip

Step aboard our 16-foot custom poling skiff for a true South Florida inshore fishing experience through the protected waters of Delray Beach, Boca Raton, and Boynton Beach. Designed for just 1–2 anglers, this trip gives you a private, hands-on fishing experience where we can reach shallow water, canals, mangrove shorelines, docks, bridges, and other areas that larger charter boats simply can’t access.
Depending on the season, tides, weather, and current bite, we’ll target species including snook, tarpon, jack crevalle, snapper, sheepshead, barracuda, ladyfish, bluefish, and sharks. We may fish live bait around docks and bridges, cast artificial lures along structure, sight-fish cruising fish, or quietly work shallow water using the trolling motor or push pole. Every trip is customized around current conditions and your experience level.

The skiff is equipped with a trolling motor, push pole, casting platform/cage, quality rods and reels, tackle, and all necessary fishing gear. Your captain will provide the bait and tackle and help with everything from casting and rigging to fighting and landing fish. Beginners and kids are welcome, while experienced anglers will appreciate the ability to fish technical shallow-water areas and target specific species.
What makes this trip special is the small-boat experience. Rather than spending your charter making long runs offshore, you’re fishing productive water close to home and getting into places most charter boats can’t reach. With only one or two guests aboard, you’ll receive plenty of individual attention and fishing time. Whether you’re hoping to catch your first snook, battle a tarpon, introduce your child to fishing, or explore South Florida’s hidden backcountry waters, we’ll build the trip around giving you the best experience possible.

This was hands down one of the highlights of our entire trip! We had an absolutely amazing fishing experience and caught a TON of mahi-mahi! 🎣🐟 The boys had the best time and are still talking about how much fun they had.

Chris and Robb were incredible—so friendly, patient, knowledgeable, and educational. They took the time to teach the boys throughout the trip and made the entire experience fun and memorable for our whole family.

Afterward, they filleted all of the fish for us, and we were able to take it home and cook it that very same day for the entire family. It doesn’t get much fresher than eating the fish you just caught! It made the experience even more special.

We made so many wonderful memories that day, and it’s something our boys will remember for a very long time. If you’re looking for an unforgettable fishing experience, we absolutely recommend Chris and Robb. We would do it again in a heartbeat! Definitely the highlight of our trip! ❤️🎣
