8 hour bottom fishing trip during red snapper season

This trip could be an all around trip during red snapper season. We could do a half day offshore snapper fishing followed by chasing tarpon along the beach. It could also be a half day offshore followed by a half day inshore targeting redfish and speckled trout. There is plenty of opportunity for this trip depending on what is in season!
