Make some memories in Crystal River and go fishing with Big 3 Charters. Captain Dylan will be your guide, which allows you to benefit from years of professional experience.
Redfish, snook, speckled sea trout, mangrove, snapper, sheep head, black drum,
grunts, grouper, cobia, and more are in the cards if you come at the right time of year.
You'll target your catch by light tackle fishing, popping, trolling, drifting, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area. For the more adventurous among you, there's spearfishing.
Planning a family adventure? Kids are absolutely welcome! If you don't have a child-sized life vest of your own, be sure to ask if there's one on board. Don't forget to bring snacks for a boost of energy when needed!
Your trip begins aboard a 25' Carolina Skiff with capacity for 6 passengers. It has all the essentials.
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.
Your fishing license for the day is covered by the charter boat, just show up ready for some fishing! Keep in mind that some fish may have harvest limits or closed seasons. Simply ask and your captain can tell you more.
It's always wise to bring sunglasses, and sunscreen (non-spray). Drinks will be available for you. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just be sure to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

we had a great Day the captain very helpful one of the best we will recommen Thank You.
Had a lot of options, patient and friendly. Looking forward to doing it again
Captain Dylan worked hard to put us on fisf and was successful caught rent, mangrove, snapper, red fish, and grouper is a great captain with loads of experience. Captain deserved every bit of his tip I would recommen this trip for two adults only.
We went to many different mangrove island areas and caught a lot of redfish. Capt. Dylan was super flexible with us to work around the weather and make sure we got out trip in during our short visit to Crystal River.
We had a fantastic trip of a lifetime, highly recommended for fishing or scalloping. Captain Dylan is very knowledgeable and high energy to assist his clients.
