What a day! We started the morning targeting tarpon and ended up landing two nice blacktip sharks. After that, we caught several quality snook, a redfish, and finished the day with some trout. I highly recommend fishing with Captain Taylor. He knows exactly where to go and puts you on fish. He does an excellent job explaining everything—from casting techniques to properly working your lure—making the experience enjoyable and productive for anglers of all skill levels. The trip is 100% kid- and adult-friendly, and I definitely recommend booking the 8-hour charter if you want the best opportunity to experience a variety of species and fishing techniques. 5/5 stars — an unforgettable day on the water! 🎣🦈🐟
Awesome time today out on the water and thank you for the opportunity to get you out there. Excited for our next trip together!
Captain Taylor was awesome and gave me ample opportunity at bone fish and tarpon. A better fly fisherman than me would’ve landed many bones and tarpon! I’ll 100% go back.
Thank you Taylor! Looking foward to getting you back out there sometime soon!
Taylor laid out the perfect day for a 10 year old and parent. Even with some breezy conditions and knowing that the 10 year old would get motion sickness, he worked his magic for calm rides and great fishing. From seasoned fisherman to novice child, perfect fit all around. His bay boat is set up perfect and brand new. Great day.
Thank you Rob! Had a great day with you and Emmet. Cant wait to get you boys back out there!
