Captain James is a USCG licensed captain who runs a 2023 Pathfinder 2500 that is loaded to fish. The boat is powered by a 300hp Yamaha outboard.
This boat fishes 4 people very comfortable, and has seating for all on board.

Fishing licenses, bait and tackle are all included in the pricing so all you will need to bring would be food/drinks and snacks for your trip time.

Make sure to speak with Captain James to discuss what is biting best at the time of your trip!

I Look forward to spending some time on the water with you.

We may target, kingfish, tripletail, cobia, sharks, or tarpon depending on the conditions Offered for up to 4 People

Captain James Loisel grew up outside of Central Florida where he was on the water everyday. From a young age he was into fishing, whether it was chasing around Largemouth bass at the local lakes or fishing the Mosquito Lagoon for schooled up Redfish, I just loved the hunt and the thrill of the fight. I moved to the Historic Coast back in 2016 where I attended the University of North Florida. While I moved to North Florida for school, my priorities were very much focused on Learning the waterways in the Region. I started my Guide Service not long after that as I wanted to take people on an adventure and get to share the feeling that I first felt long ago that made me want to become a Guide. I strive for excellence everyday I am on the water and am very competitive to always want to do better, that means I will give you my 100% on your trip to make sure we have the opportunities to have the most success possible. I offer both Inshore trips on a Maverick flats boat as well as a Pathfinder 2500 depending on the trip and size of group.
