1st time on Crappie
Half Day Trip (AM) on March 2, 20262 adults

We had a great time. We said we wanted to catch Crappies and Captain Rick put us on them. We landed 10 crappie and a Bluegill. We landed even more big bass, but released them. Great Day!!!

Captain Rick is a native Floridian, and one of his first fishing memories is going after Bass in the Everglades. He's been fishing the offshore waters near Sebastian since the seventies and has learned quite a lot in that time.
