Skunk Fishing
Join Captain Josh for an exciting inshore fishing adventure focused on the thrill of actively casting and hunting for some of the Gulf Coast’s most rewarding species. With a 100% Skunk Insured guarantee, Captain Josh stands behind every trip and is committed to providing an unforgettable experience on the water.
This is not a typical bottom fishing or trolling trip. You’ll be actively casting for prized inshore species like Speckled Trout and Redfish, using proven techniques and local knowledge to maximize your chances of a great catch. Whether you’re looking for a trophy trout or a keeper-sized fish to bring home for dinner, Captain Josh will share his experience and passion for inshore fishing every step of the way.
Trips run for 6 hours and typically depart between 6 AM and 12 PM depending on weather and the best fishing conditions for the day. If the fish are being challenging, Captain Josh is happy to extend the trip to make sure you have the best possible experience. All rods, tackle, bait, ice, and water are provided, so just bring your favorite snacks, drinks, and sunscreen.
You’ll fish aboard a 24-foot bay boat built for inshore action. While fishing is the focus, there’s always time to enjoy the day your way, whether that means sightseeing, dolphin watching, bird watching, or stopping by a waterfront spot or sandbar. Book a Tuesday or Wednesday trip and you may even get the chance to take a break and watch the Blue Angels practice shows.
For safety reasons, children under 13 years old are not permitted on trips. Parking is available at the ramp kiosk for $5. Please note that GoPros and lengthy recording sessions are not allowed during the trip.

Josh was an exceptional guide on our recent fishing trip. We targeted large speckled trout and that's what we caught. Josh's boat is top notch and he has many years of experience and knowledge. I am looking forward to my next trip with Josh and I would give him the best possible reference for anyone looking for a really good time on the bay.

Water was choppy, winds out of the NE. Not idea conditions. Caught so many speckled trout we ran out of bait in the first 2 hours and had to go catch more. Captian Josh was great.
Had a great day on the water with Capt Josh. It is obvious he loves what he does and his passion to catch fish is contagious. The bite was off and on but Josh continued to find spots to give us chances to hook up. We took a little break and watched the Blue Angels which was awesome! Josh ended up staying out a couple hours past our scheduled time to make sure we caught more fish. We went home with some great memories and a cooler full of fresh fillets for dinner! Highly recommend Josh and Skunk Fishing! Highly recommend bay/inshore fishing over deep sea/outshore fishing! A lot more fishing and less “boat riding”. We will be back next summer and hope to get out on the water with Josh again!
From start to finish, this fishing trip was absolutely top-notch! The captain was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and made sure everyone felt comfortable—whether you were a seasoned angler or brand new to fishing. The boat was clean and well-equipped, and we hit some amazing spots. We caught a ton of fish and even saw dolphins along the way! It was clear they really love what they do and go the extra mile to make the experience special. Highly recommend booking—you won’t regret it!
This was the best fishing trip ever. Josh really knows the water and what he is doing he is definitely going to put you on some awesome fish!!! We caught many huge and beautiful trout and a one massive redfish. I will definitely book this trip next time around and also book a longer one. Josh definitely hasn’t going on it was an absolute blast and we were on fish the whole time. If you’re in the area you have to book a trip with Josh he really is an awesome guide.
We may not have been bringing in the fish as much but we had a wonderful time! Josh was very knowledgeable and tried everything he could to get us on the fish, we booked on a Wednesday and he knew exactly where to sit to see the Blue Angels Practice! That was a very notable part of our trip! We would recommend Capitan Josh for anyone who wants the experience of being on the bay and doing some good fishing!
It was just Josh and I out on the water with great weather. Not the easiest catching environment but Josh worked hard to get me on fish and was very instructional helping me to improve my technique so I could start catching them and on the last cast of the day caught a huge Redfish! Great day with a great guide and person. I highly recommend Josh if you want a fun, great day on the water.

My husband and I booked a quick evening trip and we had the best time! The weather wasn’t on our side but Josh made sure we got some fish anyway! He was such a nice guy and very knowledgeable! We highly recommend!!

Josh was great! Caught some really big trout that we had to release due to the size. Got to keep a few. Already booked another trip. Can’t wait to see how the next one goes!

Josh is an excellent captain! Very knowledgeable and easy to make conversation! I actually enjoyed this more than I have many deep sea fishing expeditions!! I would highly recommend!
