We had a really great day on the water with sean! We learned a ton, got to see so many cool things and catch everything we wanted too. Genuinely the best charter we have done so far and would definitely recommend. 

November fishing trip

Start the year off right by heading into the Crystal River's flats for the likes of Spotted Seatrout and Redfish. It's also the perfect time to take a swim with migrating manatees spending the winter here.

The inshore fishing continues to shine as we ease into February. Trout and Redfish are additionally joined by Sheepshead, Tripletail, and Flounder.

If you came to freshwater fish for Largemouth Bass and Crappie – now's the time to do it! For you Crystal River enthusiasts, the Redfish and Spotted Seatrout bite picks up.

One of the best times to be in Crystal River! You'll have the waters all to yourself before the tourists arrive, as you target the likes of Black Seabass, Redfish, Trout, and Snook.

We're deep into spring and the waters are finally warm enough for Florida inshore favorite, Tarpon, to show up! This is also a great time to head into deeper waters in search of Amberjack and Hogfish.

Grouper season is finally open and this is one of the best times to go shallow water fishing for Gag and Red varieties. There's also Tarpon, Redfish, Snook, and Trout to keep your hands full.

Deeper waters hold delicious Red Snapper! For you folks who'd like to keep things closer to home, Scallop season is officially open and the rivers are full of tourists looking to take home a treat.

We wish it could be August in Crystal River forever. Redfish peak again, the last of the Tarpon give you a run for your money, and the nearshore fishing heats up.

This is your last chance to get your hands on some delicious bay Scallops in the river. Inshore, the Tarpon may be gone, but you can still hook into Redfish, Spotted Trout, and Snook.

Hit the waters for delicious Black Seabass, Gag, and Red Grouper. Other backcountry residents include Redfish, Sheepshead, and Spotted Seatrout.

If you came to town with a Bull Redfish in mind – November is your month! The area's famous manatees also barrel into town mid-month. Head to Three Sisters Spring to spot these cute creatures!

Fishing in Florida is a year-round sport, so why not end the year with some incredible inshore fishing? Redfish, Spotted Seatrout, Sheepshead, and Snook keep your lines tugging in the backcountry and flats.
