    We (Elsley) caught 5 yellow eyed snapper and we’ll be dropping them off at Happy Lobster to cook them up for us! We had a wonderful day on the water! Elsley was very kind to us newbies and efficient. We each caught a huge one, but it got away! 😂

    Captain Clayton and Jay provided a great experience and excellent fishing. We've fished many charters and have had both good and bad experiences. This captain and crew are top notch and have a great, clean boat. Highly recommend. We caught a boatload of large triggerfish on our reef trip. Solid day!

    Captain and first mate were phenomenal. They had us on fish as soon as we got out on the water. We ended up keeping 25 fish of varying species. While we were snorkeling they made fresh ceviche out of the fish right on the boat. My kids loved it. Some of the best ceviche I’ve ever had. Highly recommend this guide and crew.

Explore these productive waters and test your skills against a range of tough-fighting and delicious species, such as Snook, Redfish, Trout and many more.

    Depending on sea conditions, this afternoon trip heads north or south to find the best action. We start by trolling for tuna, wahoo, and other pelagics, then switch to bottom fishing as the trip continues. The afternoon is ideal for deeper species, so we focus more on bottom drops while still mixing in some trolling. You'll also enjoy a beautiful sunset on the water. We have a tuna tube onboard, allowing us to use live small tuna as bait ,the most effective way to target big predators like wahoo !

    Perfect Fishing Trip!

    Gabe and Brett were great! The boat was as advertised and Gabe worked with me to customize the trip for what I wanted. I had an amazing 14-hr Gulf Stream trip with my nephews. Gabe was very knowledgable of the area and made sure we caught fish! Highly recommend this kind of trip for fishermen who want a memorable fishing trip and opportunity to catch a lot of different species.

About Snapper (Blackfin) fishing

Size
2–7 lbs
Food Value
Good
Game Quality
Good

Snapper (Blackfin) fishing targets a deep-water member of the Snapper family known for bright red color and a dark mark at the pectoral fin. Anglers love these fish for strong, steady fights and clean, mild fillets. They usually hold around reefs, rocky ledges, and drop-offs in deeper offshore water, which adds to the challenge and the fun.

The most common approach is bottom fishing with sturdy tackle. Crews drop weighted rigs to reach the strike zone and use natural bait like squid or cut fish. Deep-drop methods, which mean fishing very deep with heavy weights and sometimes electric reels, also work well. Slow-pitch and vertical jigging, where you move a metal lure up and down, can trigger aggressive bites.

Expect a ride offshore to deeper structure and a focused, patient style of fishing. Bites often come in bursts, followed by solid runs and dogged pulls. This suits anglers who enjoy technique and steady action rather than fast surface strikes. Wear sun protection, a hat, and polarized sunglasses. Pack snacks, water, and a light jacket. Most captains provide rods, reels, tackle, and bait, but check before you go and bring any personal gear you prefer.

Rules vary by location. Always check local license and permit needs, along with current seasons, gear rules, and harvest limits for your area before your Snapper (Blackfin) fishing trip.
