We booked a 1/2 day trip with Captain Cory Russell.  Our party was made up of 2 Husband/Wife couples. We were staying at Gulf Waters RV park and the ride to and from including using the ferry was easy and quick.  Cory was ready and waiting when we arrived. We quickly loaded up and headed out to the bay.  Cory took his time explaining the method we would be using for speckled trout.  Keep the pole upright and requires quick twitches of the croaker bait fish.  Within 2 minutes we were...

We scheduled a half day (morning) charter with Capt.

Captain Corey was awesome! It was my wife’s first time fishing along with my 2 year old and 8 year old boys, and he made it such a great experience for all of us. He was very patient, especially with the kids, and stayed engaged the whole time making sure we were having fun. We all had a blast and made some great memories.

We started the day slow, but thanks to Captain Russell’s experience and determination, we filled our limits before lunch! Not only did we end up with the best guide and an unforgettable experience, but we... Mehr
