Fish the productive waters of the Upper Florida Keys and Biscayne Bay with Captain Kevin Cornell, born and raised locally and dialed into the inshore Waters, Everglades Backcountry, and Reef / Reef Edge Systems year-round.

We prioritize Inshore, Reef & Backcountry fishing first, keeping runs short and lines tight.  On weather permitting days we may venture past the reef edge or into the Gulf for a chance at larger game.
