What anglers said about fishing in Heron Harbor

In spring and early summer, go for Spanish mackerel, kingfish, tuna, and red snapper. Local captains and crew (like Eric!) are usually happy to teach you techniques—from baiting a hook to reeling in your first big catch.

I would recommend they book a charter with 850 and Captain Phillip. We are very inexperienced and they absolutely CRUSHED it.

Do your research, talk to the captains to get the info you need. Find out what’s biting, and what you expect to catch. Most of the captains I talked too, didn’t have an issue relaying info

If you are looking to catch a particular species, Check for what is in season before booking your trip! We were one week out from being able to keep the red snapper

Let the captain know what you are trying to accomplish. They were very accommodating and really worked with us to customize the trip for our goals.

Definitely use Captain Jonathan. He’s knowledgeable and knows good spots. Within minutes he has pulling up fish. The weather in May can be tricky but book ahead of time and that way they can work with you and let you know the deal.

Trust that your captain knows what they are doing. They know the waters better than your average tourist. They want you to have a good time and enjoy your experience.

Windy weather can be a bit tricky but the good days are great! Lots of action. Temps were perfect. Not to chilly before sun up but maybe wear a long sleever just to be sure.

The main thing we caught were Spanish Mackerel. Hopefully there is more of a variety of fish you can catch during different seasons. We were not disappointed though! Sounds like Cobia have been fished out.

Follow the instructions that Justin gives you to prepare for the time on the boat. Sunscreen, rubber-soled shoes, hat, etc. I would suggest taking something for seasickness...it happens.

March is still warming up for the year so it can be a tougher chance at getting on fish.
