Shallow Seas Charters offers guided fishing trips that bring home various inshore species that Port St. Joe, Florida has to offer. Join Captain Lee and let him do all the work while you catch fish. Get your hands on whatever species call the Forgotten Coast home.

The company specializes in family-friendly fishing trips. Children are especially welcome to join in the adventure. Capt. Lee is a great teacher and enjoys working with younger anglers and seasoned professionals alike. Take your kids with you and let Capt. Lee introduce them to the art of fishing and help them catch their first-ever fish.

Your day on the water, be it a short trip or a full-day adventure, will take you exploring the bite close to shore. You will be using both live and artificial baits depending on what species you’d like to take off your personal bucket list.

Shallow Seas Charters and Capt. Lee will work hard to put you on Redfish, Speckled Trout, Flounder, Spanish Mackerel, and toothy Sheepshead. You will be fishing with light tackle, popping or fly fishing.

You will be fishing aboard a 21’ Champion Bay boat, built with comfort in mind. The boat comes powered by a 150 HP Mercury engine and is fully outfitted with everything you need for a productive day on the water.

Rods, reels, and tackle by Penn, Daiwa and Shimano will be provided to make a great catch possible. As well as that, all trips come with bait, lures, licenses, and a fish cleaning service. If you want to fish with a fly, you will need to bring your own equipment.

I grew up in South Florida and have fished my entire life. I spent my days on Lake Okeechobee and fishing the east coast of Florida. I served in the Army for 21 years and retired in Port St. Joe, Florida and continued to fish and provide clients with an outstanding outdoors experience on the beautiful St. Joe Bay. I fish inshore for Trout, Redfish, Flounder, and other various inshore species in the Port St. Joe, Florida area using both live and artificial baits.
