Bull Redfish Are Chewin!!

Oct 3, 2020 Jacksonville

This is about as much fun as you can have in one place. These bull redfish are big and strong and so much fun to pull in. Over the past 3 charters, we have landed and properly released over 60 of these bruisers. We'd love to have you join us to make some memories! We cost a little more, but our boats are the biggest and you will be treated like family!

Annual Bull Redfish Spawn is now!

Sep 27, 2020 Jacksonville

Catch and release some absolute beautiful fish! This is the time of year to really have some fun without going offshore when it's windy. Fun Fun Fun

King Mackerel Make for Serious Fun!

May 5, 2020 Jacksonville

I love this time of year! When the kingfish show up like they have now, it makes for extreme fun! Double digit fish that run 50 miles per hour on light tackle. Come with us and lets make some memories!

Grouper Season is here!

May 2, 2020 Jacksonville

Although grouper season is in, the grouper fishing we have on the east coast typically isn't that good truthfully. We have so many red snapper, it's really difficult to get to the grouper for the red snapper. The further offshore you get, 10hrs plus, the better your chances are for grouper. This is the best time of year for dolphin, but those are 60 miles plus offshore. The bottom fishing is phenomenal out there also for beeliners, triggerfish, red porgy, amberjack, etc... Regardless of what trip you choose, we will put together an enjoyable day for you and your crew! Come with us!

Grouper Season in full swing!

May 2, 2020 Jacksonville

Your safety is our #1 priority

Mar 30, 2020 Jacksonville

We are disinfecting out boats and equipment with a bleach solution following each trip. We also have disinfectant wipes for your use throughout the day. Your safety is our #1 concern. Showing you a great, fun, safe, memorable day on the water is our second. Come fishing with us. We will keep you safe! Capt. Chad

8 Hour Trip – Offshore

The trip was great. Four of went and 3 had never been offshore fishing before. Captain Chad and mate Zack were great they took time to show them the different things unique to certain fish and very helpful with showing how the reels operated. On top of being great with the guys they put us on fish. We caught a real variety from Trigger fish to Mangrove snapper, Vermilion snapoer, Albacore, Black Sea bass and several species that were unfortunately out of season but still great to catch Grouper...

Great Trip But

Had company come out, went bottom fishing, waters were a bit choppy. Out of town company ended up chumming the fish more than catching them. This of course is NOT the fault of the Captain, who went out of his way to try to find us somewhere ‘better’ to fish. Real class act here, I absolutely WILL be using them again in the future for when I go fishing again, which will be SOON. Thank you for the tirp. Aaron

Epic is the only word that comes to mind when thinking about this expedition. Our boat captain Kyle was amazing the time and care he took with each person , especially me because I had never been fishing before. Chad was very personable available via private phone line to answer any of my silly questions . I highly recommend these guys they treated me and my family like family that’s priceless.

We caught Barracudas, King Mackerels, Ring Tails, Trigger Fish, Sea Bass, and a nice Red Snapper (that was released.) We have been on several charters and Tommy (the birthday boy) said this was the best charter yet! Tommy caught a real large King Mackerel. Excellent charter!
