Redfish Cowboys is your ticket to the stunning waters of Okaloosa Island. Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Alex can tell you all about the local fishery.

Species like Black Drum, Jack Crevalle, King Mackerel (Kingfish), Redfish, Speckled Trout, Crab, Permit, Flounder, Tarpon, Bonito, Pompano, Spanish Mackerel, and more inhabit these waters, depending on the season. During the trip you might be spinning, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area. For the more adventurous among you, there's bowfishing.

If you're traveling with the family, you will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! If you don't have a child-sized life vest of your own, be sure to ask if there's one on board. You're welcome to bring snacks to stay fueled throughout your trip!

You'll be casting lines from a 22' Blazer Bay boat that can carry up to 4 passengers. It has everything you need for a productive day on the water. Your captain will provide rods and reels, along with lures. Live bait is included, but be sure to ask about it so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.

The charter boat covers your fishing license, so all you have to do is look forward to your trip! Keep in mind that you may release some fish due to regulations. Your captain will help you follow regulations while you fish.

It's recommended to bring sunglasses, sunscreen (non-spray), and bottled water. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but you should avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.
