About the trip

This trip is the captain's personal favorite. Hit up the nearshore reefs and wrecks and engage in some bottom fishing, while you'll also have the chance to head further offshore and explore the deep waters. Drop right down to catch the bite of some monster fish, so get ready for a thrilling, intense workout to land these beauties. Snapper, Kingfish, Amberjack, and Cobia, among others, will all make for a thrilling struggle and a delicious treat at the end of the day.
