About Your Trip

Join Captain Brett for a premier inshore fishing experience led by a highly experienced guide with a lifelong passion for boating and fishing. With two decades of service in the Coast Guard, Captain Brett brings an unmatched level of knowledge, safety awareness, and on-the-water expertise to every trip, ensuring anglers of all skill levels enjoy a productive and comfortable day on the water.

These guided trips focus on some of the most sought-after inshore species in the region, including Speckled Trout, Redfish, Sheepshead, and Flounder. Each outing is tailored to current conditions such as tides, water temperature, and seasonal fish movement, allowing Captain Brett to put you in the best possible position for success.

Depending on the day, you may be working grass flats for trout, targeting structure and docks for sheepshead, or easing along channels and drop-offs where redfish and flounder are known to stage. A variety of techniques may be used throughout the trip, including live bait presentations, artificial lures, and bottom fishing rigs. Captain Brett’s hands-on instruction makes these trips accessible for beginners while still engaging for more experienced anglers looking to refine their skills.

Safety and professionalism are at the core of every trip thanks to Captain Brett’s extensive background in the Coast Guard. Guests can feel confident knowing they are in capable hands while focusing on enjoying the fishing, the scenery, and the overall experience on the water.

All necessary fishing gear is provided, and Captain Brett works hard to make each trip smooth and enjoyable from start to finish. Whether you're introducing someone to fishing for the first time, planning a family outing, or simply looking to spend a relaxing day chasing quality inshore fish, this trip delivers a well-rounded and rewarding experience.

From hard-fighting redfish to delicious sheepshead and classic speckled trout, Captain Brett’s inshore trips offer a great opportunity to explore productive coastal waters with a knowledgeable and safety-focused guide.

Brett was excellent, we headed out, hit a few places and he found the fish! My daughter was with us, he was patient and let her reel in after he hooked them, she even caught a couple herself. Great day, thank you

My wife, grandson and I had a wonderful trip with Brett. Brett was ready to go waiting for us at the marina st the appointed hour His boat is amazing. Over the course of the morning he put us on speckled trout and black drum. The big specks avoided us but the black drum made up for it. You never know what the fish are going to do. Brett worked diligently to ensure we had a successful day. What is more important is that he catered to our grandson who had never been bay fishing before. We have great memories now due to Brett’s skill and knowledge of the water. We will use him again and refer him to others.
