Capt. Gary will do his best to make sure you have a fun day full of fishing. This involves 4 to 12-hour trips, mainly fishing for Redfish, King Mackerel, Cobia, Tarpon, Sheepshead, and bottom fish depending on the season and conditions on the day. On these trips, you can expect to use techniques such as light tackle, heavy tackle, bottom fishing, trolling, fly fishing, and spinning. The captain can customize a trip any way you’d like.

Your fishing adventure starts on a 25’ Pathfinder center console that can safely take up to 4 anglers. It’s powered by a 300 HP Yamaha engine to get you to the fishing grounds quickly. Also available is a 17’ Maverick flats boat for backcountry and inshore trips. We can accommodate 2 anglers on this boat. We go up into the creeks, ICW, and St. John’s river in search of redfish, trout and flounder.

Your trip will include all the necessary fishing licenses for the day. The crew will clean and fillet your catch for you to take home at the end of the trip. The boat will be supplied with drinks and ice for your pleasure, be sure to let the captain know if you have any questions or want to bring your own.

Come aboard the LineCrew for a fun-filled day on the water.

    Join us for a unique experience in the north Florida marshes. Usually starting in July and running thru October, near the full moon, we get extremely high tides. Normally called a spring or king tide. The reds will push up small feeder creeks onto the flats that aren’t normally accessible looking for crabs. We pole across these flats looking for the telltale sign of a redfish “tailing “. We throw crab pattern flies or spoons on light tackle. A chance to do a little north Florida sight fishing.
