Background
CRO runs trips out of Apalachicola, Carabelle, St Marks, Shell Point, and Lanark. These waters are known for the incredible inshore and nearshore fishing opportunities. With excellent knowledge of the area, we definitely have a trick or two up out sleves, and the only way to learn is to join us out on the water!
Techniques
Chumming with live and cut bait for cobia, snapper, and sight fishing tripletail.
