Just a good day on the water
5 Hour Trip – Nearshore on December 29, 20254 adults1 child

5 of us (65, 44, 17, 15, 12) Started the day off with a lot of action on grunts. After going through a gallon of shrimp in 15 minutes, the boys were looking for a change of pace, he put us on some grouper, hogfish, more grunts…. And a beautiful toadfish… ha! Great all around day, and Eric is a great conversationalist, and knowledgeable of the waters he works daily!
