We arrived at the dock a bit early, but were greeted by the captains and actually left a bit early. Aldon put us on fish almost immediately. We fished several different spots, including many that most boats drove right by—all of which had fish on them. We caught trout all day long and a few bull reds as well. Aldon was great with our kids, ages 13 and 9. He is very low-key and personable. A real treat to spend the day with. We’ll be back to fish with them again.

We fished with Capt’n Michael and had a great trip catching Redfish. On board was a fishing group with ages of 5, 8, 40 and 65. All ages had a great time. The Capt’n was great with first time fishermen, and experienced anglers. Book your trip, you will enjoy.
