Hi, I'm Capt. Scott Pierce. For over 30 years, fishing has been more than a hobby for me, it's been a way of life. That lifelong passion led me to become a professional fishing guide, giving me the incredible opportunity to share the thrill of the catch with fellow anglers, friends, families, and newcomers alike. I specialize in chasing some of the most exciting reef species, Snapper, Tuna, and Amberjack, and there's nothing more rewarding than helping others reel in the fish of a lifetime. Whether you're a seasoned fisherman or just getting started, I'm here to make sure your trip is fun, safe, and unforgettable. I've been blessed with an amazing family, married for 24 years with three wonderful kids, and we all share a deep love for the outdoors, hunting, and fishing. Faith and family are at the heart of everything I do, and I consider it a true gift to be able to use my knowledge and experience to serve others on the water.

    Amazing trip with top quality results

    8 Hour Offshore – Catch Guranteed! • 6 adults

    Reece Cummings was our Captain and could not ask for a more energetic and focused professional during our 8 hour deep sea fishing trip. Fish were not cooperating at first, but crew stayed attentive and helpful. All caught our limit of Red Snapper. Had a fantastic time catching Mahi Mahi with 17 “chickens” and 2 large. Never pass up a chance to have this dynamic experience. All fish were cleaned exactly to our requests. Strongly recommend this company and will be coming back!

    Awesome day on the water

    8 Hour Offshore – Catch Guranteed! • 6 adults

    Scott, and his son Drake, did a fantastic job in putting us on the fish in tough conditions. We hit our snapper limit without a problem. Very personable and helpful throughout the whole trip. No need to look elsewhere.

    Scott is the best.

    4 Hour Trip – White Bass (PM) • 3 adults

    We booked for a different lake and a different fish, but Scott suggested another place that we would be more successful so we agreed. We caught some nice big mouth bass and it was like fishing with a buddy you’ve known for years. Can’t recommend him enough.

    Response from Charter operator

    thank you hope to see you guys in April fir the best Catfishing ever

    It was a tough day of fishing where we saw many boats fishing and nobody catching anything. Were after white and hybrid bass but they were just off the bite. Captain Jordan tried his best and I am sure any other day we would have caught fish. We learned a lot of different ways to fish for them and hit a lot of different places. He was knowledgeable and made the trip worth it. We will be booking with him again! Mike
