Looking for something different? Come scalloping with us during the summer months! It’s a fun, family-friendly underwater treasure hunt in the shallow grass beds—great for all ages.

If you’re looking for something truly unique, don’t miss our nighttime flounder gigging trips—a thrilling coastal tradition ideal for families and adventurous guests.

Not into fishing? Our custom cruises and eco-tours are the perfect way to explore the barrier islands, shell beaches, and local wildlife. Options include dolphin-watching, island drop-offs, and laid-back sightseeing. Each trip is fully customizable for your group.

During fall and winter, we also offer fully guided duck, gator, and hog hunts for those looking to experience Florida’s wild side.

All fishing licenses, rods, reels, and terminal tackle are provided. We’ll clean and bag your catch at the end of the trip for an additional fee of $1.50/lbs. Just bring drinks, snacks, sunscreen, and a cooler for your fish.
