My wife and I took a quick morning trip with Captain Matt. He was very patient and we were able to boat a number of fish. My wife caught a snook and I got a number of really big speckled trout.

Great day
6 Hour Inshore Trip (copy) on March 23, 20252 adults
Really a fantastic day, started out catching some 35 to 40 pound black drum, if you wanna tug on your line, that’ll do it! Spent some time pitch and shiners for snook caught a bonus flounder and some trout also. Look for Tarpon but they’re not quite in yet will be booking again with him.
