5 red fish, 9 bonnethead sharks.

Big reds! Big snook! Even some sharks in just 4hrs !

So my client (who caught that 37” snook a few weeks ago) told me after the charter: “Chris, I’m going to book with you every few weeks if that’s okay.” My response—absolutely, it would be a pleasure. Well… like the tide, he came right back. This time he had a new challenge: “Chris, I’ve never caught a redfish. I want a trophy… and maybe one for dinner.” Challenge accepted. First fish of the day—31” red (pinched tail) ? 26” red harvested 26” red revived and released 4 snook from 24”–26” 7 keeper trout, all revived and released Keeper flounder released Done by 11am. Book it. I’ll do my best for you.

Man, days like this are exactly why we do it. Absolute lights-out fishing from start to finish. In just 4 hours we put together a killer mixed bag—multiple big snook, a solid redfish, a flounder, and a handful of trout to top it off. The bite stayed consistent the whole trip, and when you can stay tight on quality fish like that, you know everything lined up right. On top of it all, the weather couldn’t have been any better. Clean conditions, beautiful skies, and fish that were ready to eat—it doesn’t get much better. These are the kind of trips that remind you how special our fishery really is. Tight lines.
