After a phenomenol day of fishing the Gulf with this family we landed a minster Snook at the Cocohatchee River Marina dock. Talk about a great ending! Weโ€™ve been loading up on the Mangrove Snapper between 3-5 miles offshore, fighting the Barracuda regularly, and still catching some Cobia! Brought a Tripletail on the boat two weeks back and just overall have been having a blast with our customers!

Repeat customers Vern and Steve were in Naples for a fishing adventure this past week. Weโ€™ve been having better success at our 3 and 5 mile spots so stuck with near shore this trip and scored with a plentiful day catching Permit, Snook, Goliath Grouper, Cobia, and more. We did snag a loggerhead and we were able to safely release him back home!
