Fantastic Family Fishin!!!
3/4 Day Trip on November 15, 20253 adults1 child

We had the best day fishing with Captain Jeff. We took a 3/4 day trip and he had us on fish almost the whole time.. We caught so many fish, specifically a Mangrove Snapper, some trout, tons of grouper (all too small to keep- :( oh well) a sheepshead, 2 triple tails, and a bonnethead shark. Overall it was a great day that our family will remember forever. Would definitely go out with Captain Jeff and Salty Charters again.

Reported catch:
Mangrove Snapper
Speckled Trout

Tough day
Half Day Trip on February 28, 20254 adults

The tide was low, water was a little cold, red tide had moved out not long ago. It was a tough day fishing, only had a couple keepers but still a great day on the water!

Highly recommend this charter for your outing. Captain Jeff was personable, knowledgeable and his vessel was properly equipped. No frills fishing, my whole family caught multiple fish on this trip, even though my wife did not get the Tarpon she has been wanting. Had a great time!
