about our fishing trips

​

our location on the nature coast of Florida offers world-class fishing experiences. We will be fishing in the heart of the Nature Coast where seven spring-fed rivers lead into the Gulf of Mexico and offer crystal clear water and a unique ecosystem. Whether you are looking to sight-cast in the mangroves or head out to the rocks to target grouper, there are numerous opportunities to choose from.

​

A few days prior to your trip, your captain will contact you to discuss details of your trip. Your day will begin at pick up from one of the local marinas.  We will spend the day fishing the flats, mangroves, and backcountry waters targeting species such as redfish, snook, tarpon, black drum, trout, sheepshead, and many more. Just let your captain know if you are looking to catch a certain species, and he will help you find it (in season). 

 

Our 20 foot custom flats boat is designed for the best shallow water and flats fishing. The unique design of the boat with a surface drive engine allows access to hard-to-reach fish in the most shallow waters. Our 24 foot Carolina Skiff is perfect for larger parties and is the best all-around boat for fishing inshore, offshore, scalloping, and everything between.

 

Inshore fishing in Crystal River also lets you experience some of the most interesting wildlife that Florida has to offer. We will likely see alligators, turtles, manatees, dolphin, roseate spoonbills, ospreys, and many other unique species, so don’t forget your camera! At the end of the trip, we will return to the marina where Capt. Justin will clean your fish so you can cook up your delicious catch.
