Trip Summary

We're following typical summer protocol still. Our favorite part about this time of the year is how quiet it is on the water. On most days we aren't even seeing other boats offshore, let alone on where we're fishing. Permit fishing has still been strong with nice numbers of fish still in our region. This fishery will remain solid throughout August so we are creeping up on the last call for them. On these same spots there are also plenty of Goliath's and Baracudas to pull on for anyone who is interested in that. Snapper bite has been solid offshore as well with some nice Mangrove's and Yellowtails being caught. The Snook has been the highlight on our inshore trips. They've been chewing nicely both inshore and nearshore. Over the next coming months more Redfish will begin to show up in our backcountry. Will also be a good time to fish for juvenile Tarpon in the backcountry as well. Lots of different options this time of the year. Please reach out to any of our captains regarding any questions.
