    (2 hour backwater pm)

    Short and Sweet!

    We booked a two hour with our 10 year old and it was perfect! We caught lots of snook, a grouper, and a red fish. Captain Fred knew a bunch of good spots and even cleaned our catch to take to a restaurant to cook. 10/10 experience.

    (6 Hour Trip – Bay Fishing (AM))

    lets go again!

    We booked a 4 party reservation for our 13 year olds birthday. Well, at first we were worried that the weather would be too cold/windy for our fishing trip. Our captain called us the day before to reassure us and make sure we wanted to continue. We are glad we did. Even though the first half of our charter was cold and windy we ended up catching up to our limit in fish. Our guide was professional, friendly and anticipated or needs for the trip. Would definetly do it again!

    First Charter Success

    This was our very first charter and it didn’t disappoint even with windy conditions. Trae made it fun and took us to the best spots to make it fun. Will definitely book again.

    (3/4 Day Inshore Trip)

    Bad weather but still good fishing

    It was a rough day, captain Bill had to pivot more inshore and we had at least 25 flounder, out of season by 2 days, huge reds and bull reds, some trout and more. My boys were happy. Would recommend captain Bill.

    Great Day out on the water!!

    Captain Ronnie at Another Fish Charters provided an incredible experience from start to finish. They knew exactly where to find the fish, kept us on the action all day, and provided top-notch gear, local expertise, and great conversation. Whether you are an experienced angler or a beginner, I highly recommend booking with Captain Ronnie for an unforgettable trip!

Food Value

Game Quality
Good

Redfish, also called Red Drum, are a favorite inshore game fish. Anglers love their power, golden color, and the bold spot near the tail. Redfish fishing is all about sight, stealth, and a clean fight. These fish patrol shallow bays, marshes, and flats, and they crush baits with fast runs.

Most trips use inshore fishing with light tackle. Spinning gear and fly fishing both work well. Live shrimp, mullet, or small crabs are classic baits. Spoons, soft plastics, and topwater plugs also produce action. A popping cork makes a chugging sound that calls fish in. Sight casting means you spot the fish first, then place the lure ahead of it.

Expect calm, shallow water and quick strikes. This is a hands-on style that suits kids, first-timers, and seasoned anglers. Tides and low light often bring the best bite. Bring sun protection, a hat, and polarized sunglasses, which help you see fish in the water. Pack snacks, water, and non-marking shoes. Your captain or guide usually provides tackle and bait.

Rules for Redfish change by state and area. Before your trip, check local license and permit needs. Review season dates, harvest rules, and size and bag limits where you plan to fish. When in doubt, ask your captain and follow best catch-and-release practices.
