    Awesome afternoon of fishing!

    Half Day Trip – Inshore - 12:00 PM on March 20, 2026 • 4 adults

    This was our second time fishing with Bryan and it did not disappoint! He had everything lined up for us…literally! We caught grouper, vermillion snapper, trigger fish, and several others! We had a nice calm day and he brought us right to where the fish were biting. His boat was super clean and was perfect for four adults. Highly highly recommend!
