These waters are known for Snook, Spotted Seatrout, Redfish, Sheepshead, Largemouth Bass, Bowfin, Crappie, and more – with any luck, you'll hook into a few!

During the trip you might be spinning, popping, jigging, or maybe something more specialized in the area. Capt. James also offers fly fishing, but you may need to bring your own fly gear.

Feel free to bring home any fish you catch, assuming they meet regulations. Catch cleaning is available, so you can take your fish home without any hassle. Your next meal doesn't get any fresher than that!

Families who love fishing together 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 get one from Captain James. Customers are encouraged to bring snacks to maintain your energy throughout the trip!

Your adventure begins aboard a 18' Hewes Redfisher flats boat that holds up to 2 passengers. It comes with and all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. You'll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you, as well as lures. Live bait is included, but be sure to ask about it so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.

A 15-20% tip is customary to show your appreciation for their hard work.

Fishing license is included. Some species may be off limits or require a special tag, so make sure you know what to expect.

It's recommended to bring sunblock (non-spray), and sunglasses. Water is included. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, so long as you avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Fun morning trip
3 Hour Trip (AM) on June 30, 20262 adults

James was a great captain, he safely operates his boat while maintaining good communication. You’re not guaranteed to catch fish but with his local knowledge we were fortunate to find snook, trout, and tarpon. If a spot isn’t producing bites he will eagerly switch to other options. James was great with younger kids as well. Look forward to our next trip with James!

great trip
4hr trip on June 26, 20262 adults

unfortunately the fish weren’t bitin on our particular day, me being an avid angler I completely understand that no one can guarantee any fish. though it was a slow day on the water the captian was very knowledgeable and was able to talk my daughter into holding her first fish. we had a blast even without much action!

Great time on the river!
4hr trip on April 1, 20262 adults

We had a great time on the Halifax River with Captain James. He took us around to multiple spots to try our luck. We took home a flounder, which Captain James filleted for us. Captain James did a great job guiding me and my 13 year old son.
