Capt. Kyle is here to get you on some fish, and to make sure you have fun doing it.

As part of their 4 to 12-hour trips, you can target species like King Mackerel, Dolphin, Grouper, Spanish Mackerel, Cobia, and Wahoo, depending on the current season and weather conditions.

Your fishing adventure starts on a 30' Southport boat that can safely take up to 6 anglers. This boat features a toilet.

All the necessary fishing gear is included in the price of your trip. All that's up to you is to use it as best you can. Your trip will include all the necessary fishing licenses for the day. You'll be able to keep any legal species caught during the trip.

There will be a first mate on board to help you with anything you need. Tips for good service are always appreciated.

Captain Ryan runs inshore charters on a Jones Brothers & a Pathfinder.

Children are welcome aboard so you’re good to get the young ones started early.

Half Day Trip

Unforgettable offshore fishing trip with Captain KK and Mitch

VERIFIED

Had an absolutely incredible time offshore fishing with Captain KK and Mitch! Even though the waters were a bit rough, they experience and positive energy made the entire trip and enjoyable and safe. Captain Captain KK kept us on the Fish and Mitch was incredibly helpful the entire time- always ready with a tip or a helping hand. We came back with some great catches and memories. Highly recommend booking with these guys if you’re looking for a top-tier offshore adventure!

Captain Ryan was great! He knows how to interact with children well and is very willing to help them learn the basics. My son was able to catch some fish while also gaining wisdom from Captain Ryan about the area and how to catch various types of fish. We will definitely be booking with Ryan next year. Captain Ryan you definitely made this helicopter mom completely comfortable and that’s no easy task when the ocean is involved.

If I could give 10 stars I would! Captain Ryan was awesome and very knowledgeable about where all the good spots are. He was friendly and had a lot of patience with our (four🙈) kids. It was such a fun trip and the fish we caught were delicious! We will 100% be booking another trip. The price was well worth it and a lot of good memories were made.
