These waters are known for Redfish, Spotted Seatrout, Permit, Mangrove Snapper, Sharks, and more – with any luck, you'll have tight lines in no time.
You can expect to do some spinning, popping, drifting, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.
Families making a day of it will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise you should bring your own. You're welcome to bring snacks for a boost of energy when needed!
Capt. Eric runs a 23' Majek 22.6 illusion 2 flats boat that can carry up to 4 passengers. It comes with all the essentials. Your captain will provide rods and reels, along with lures. Live bait is included, but you should ask the captain whether 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 never a bad idea to bring a hat, sunglasses, and sunblock (non-spray). There will be water on offer, but let the captain know if you wish to bring your own drinks. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, so long as you avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Our family of 3 booked an afternoon inshore charter. We fished briefly with lures targeting trout. No luck with trout, but we caught a jack that was fun. A manatee came and hung out off the bow for several minutes. We switched to live bait and targeted snook along the mangroves. There wasn't a lot of water moving that afternoon, so the bite was slow, but we caught several snook. Eric was a great captain - knowledgeable and personable. He kept us baited up and moving to fresh water. Eric was very patient with us consistently getting hung up in the mangroves, and he stayed out with us longer than the trip we booked. He was great with my 13 year old son. We had a great time!
thank you so much , I had blast with you guys.... you son is a great kid.. thanx again! hope to have ya on board again.
Had a great day fishing reefs with Capn Eric. Caught my biggest snook ever at 34" and five shortnose sharks all about 3 feet long. Terrific fights. Will be back for another trip soon! Eric does a great job mixing it up and changing strategy to catch fish. Almost caught a barracuda prowling the boat!
another fun trip with you aboard.. had a great time and great conversation… lots of fun watching you handle the fish like a pro.. looking forward to doing it agian!
Captain Eric made us feel like family on his boat! We found some fish and beautiful scenery. Firsthand experience and an even better guy leading your trip.
