Did a half day morning trip with captain Scott and didn’t have to even move locations, we were on em all morning! Caught sheepshead, permit, some released grouper and snapper, and even a Hogfish! Captain Scott was very informative and we had a blast! Already booked 2 more trips!

Half day trip with Cap’n Josh

Josh was well prepared and on top of his stuff - took us right to where the fish were, while keeping us out of the red tide. Boated a Permit, a Cobia and a bunch of other fish - everything was great, and we would definitely go out with Josh again!

Had a great experience with Captain Scott! My wife and I caught fish all day; trout, snapper, all capped off by a nice permit to end the day! Truly the highlight of the trip, and a fish my wife will never forget! I would definitely recommend Captain Scott and we will surely book with him the next time we are in town! Thank you for a great day on the water!
