Depending on the time of year, you might hook into Cobia, Flounder, Red Snapper, Tripletail, Mangrove Snapper, Speckled Trout, Gray Triggerfish, Vermilion Snapper, Sheepshead, Black Drum, Redfish, and whatever else takes the bait.
Depending on the species you’re after, you may find yourself spinning, popping, trolling, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.
We welcome you aboard a 24' Bay boat with space for 4 passengers. It comes with all the essentials no fishing machine can run without.
Captain Joe welcomes families and children on board for a fun day on the water. Children must wear life jackets, so please check that the appropriate size is available.
We will supply rods and reels for you, along with lures. Live bait is available, but be sure to ask about it so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.
You might need to purchase a local fishing license before the trip. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species might be protected or require a tag to keep them, so make sure you know what to expect.
It's always wise to bring a hat, sunglasses, and sunblock. Water and Gatorade included, free of charge. Beers/Aluminum cocktails are allowed and also you’re welcome to bring your own snacks.
