Last year snapper was the target for most of February - and this year is producing even better results. The cold front (with winds and higher seas) have made it challenging to get offshore - but when we do - the results are great. Lane snapper is back in season and producing much larger fish this year and the mangrove snapper have been everywhere. New for 2025 is our federal permits allowing us to get offshore (12 - 30 miles) and really getting into some memorable fish - specifically keeper hogfish, lane snapper and red grouper. Inside of 12 miles has also been producing - with snapper, big white grunts and flounder (yes flounder, lol). Cobia has been spotty across the board - and water temps have been keeping the kingfish to the south. Book today - if we can't make it offshore we can change to nearshore (and adjust price of charter for nearshore) - and catch some fish!

The offshore action is in full swing with snapper, hogfish and gags (release - proper descending gear used at all times). The 3/4 day offshore trips have been providing plenty of opportunity to fill the icebox with some memorable catches! January looks to be full of action between cold fronts and February looks to be calmer than January (less cold fronts - better seas). White bait has been the spark to get the snapper active while shrimp continues to attract the big hogfish! Grouper crash the party when you least expect it - and makes for great memories!

Ledges have been producing some nice snapper catches - and the hogfish bite has been steady. Getting offshore between fronts has been producing some impressive catches of hogfish, snapper, porgies (along with some big grouper - still out of season) and big redfish creating some excitement! Goliath catches are a nice distraction when you catch your limit!
