Sun screen, motion pills, don't take much food, long sleeves and hats, textile gloves eventually.

This is the most likely place to catch a shark if you are going to catch a shark.

We caught 7 sharks, landed 6, during a 3 hr trip- ideal length for kids in my opinion.

If you've never fished here for reds, get ready for a different redfish experience.

The sand gnats get pretty bad at night and bite like crazy. Long pants and shirts help a lot.

The bite is tough this time of year but it makes the catches that more worth while!

Get a trip as early as possible in case of weather cancellation. Also gives you chance to go again!

Inshore fishing over offshore due to calmer water. Offshore seas are rougher this time of year

We enjoyed the intracoastal option for big fish without the seasick risk of the ocean.

Keep in mind that the most common catch is red snapper, a lot of fun, but not in season to keep.
