Based out of Crystal River, Windy Day II Fishing Charters is your ticket to a fun-filled day fishing these waters!

Capt. Misty is on a mission to show you an excellent experience and share all of her knowledge. Depending on the trip and species, you’ll be using techniques like trolling and drift fishing. You’re looking at 5 to 8-hour trips, where you’ll usually go after the likes of Redfish, Snook, Snapper, Sheepshead, Flounder, and Black Drum, depending on the weather and time of year.

Your fishing adventure starts on a 21’ Express boat that can safely take up to 4 anglers. This boat features an ice box and a wireless trolling motor. The price of your trip includes all the rods, reels, and terminal tackle you’ll need for a productive day on the water.

Your trip will include all the necessary fishing licenses for the day, and you can keep anything you catch as long as it’s legal to do so. This is a children-friendly charter, so you’re welcome to bring your kids on for a fun fishing adventure.

As a second-generation captain, I was blessed to grow up with constant fishing. I've been fishing since I was a toddler, originally in Key West, FL, where my father captained. My family and I moved here permanently in 1994. With over 25 years of saltwater fishing on our beautiful coast here in Crystal River, FL, this is my passion, and I will show you everything I know about catching and do my best to put you on fish and have a fantastic time!
