OCEAN SPECIES WE CATCH       Scroll Down for Inshore Species

King Mackerel: These can be fished with live, dead or artificial baits. We can drift or troll. They range in size from 10 to 60 pounds. The strike is like a rocket has grabbed your bait and they usually fight hard and long. Very good table fair. (see A below)
Cobia: Cobia can be caught the same way as king mackerel, sight casting and bottom fishing. They range in size from 20 to 80 pounds. Very good table fair. (see A below)
Sailfish: Sailfish do not usually come through these waters in big numbers but we do occasionally catch a few, during the summer months. They range in size from 40 to 60 pounds.  Catch and release only.  (see A below)
Dolphin Fish (Mahi Mahi): Dolphin fish come through in the early spring, summer and again in the winter and are usually caught by trolling live, natural or artificial baits. These fish usually jump several times during the fight and are one of the most beautiful fish in this area. They range in size from 5 to 70 pounds. Very good table fair. (see B below)
Tarpon: Tarpon can be caught on live, dead, cut bait and lures. They jump several times and make long hard runs. Even the small ones are a hoot to catch. They range in size from 15 to 225 pounds. Catch and release only. (see A below)
Sharks: Sharks can be caught the same way as tarpon. We have several species including spinner sharks. These sharks jump several times and make runs that you think will never end. This is a great fish to catch and the table fair is good. They range in size from 10 to 150 pounds.  (see A below)
Grouper: We have pretty good grouper fishing in this area and they are caught while bottom fishing with live or natural bait. Great table fair. They range in size from 5 to 40 pounds. (see A below)
Red Snapper: We also have a pretty good supply of snapper and they are also caught while bottom fishing. Great table fair. Sizes are from 5 to 50 pounds. (see A below)
Sea Bass & Vermillion Snapper: These are a bottom fish that range in size from 1 to 4 pounds and can be a blast to catch as there are usually piles of them stacked up on the ledges and wrecks. They are taken on small baits, live, natural and artificial. Great table fair. (see A below)
Wahoo: These fish got their name from the first person that ever caught one. During the fight, he kept screaming WAAAAHOOOO and that is how they got their name. Very good table fair. Sizes from 30 to 90 pounds. (see B below) 
Barracuda: What a fish, they jump, tail walk, and scream line from the reel. This is usually a trolling fish but occasionally caught while bottom fishing. Smaller ones are great table fair. Sizes from 10 to 70 pounds. (see A below)
A= 4, 6, 8, 10, 11, or 12 hour trip

B= Gulf Stream Only

 INSHORE SPECIES WE CATCH

Trout Fishing:  We can trout fish with floats and live shrimp, casting jigs and shrimp along drops and edges, throw MirrOlures along drops and edges, toss soft plastics on jigs, top water lures, diving lures, the fly rod or maybe you have a way that you especially like. ( March thru January )
Red Bass Fishing:  We can do this with a mud minnow on a jig, a shrimp on a jig, top water lures, diving lures, a MirrOlure on the flats, a soft plastic, the fly rod on the flats, in the flooded grass on a fly, a live mullet on a carolina rig in the river or at the jetties or cut bait on the bottom or any other way that you like. (all year)
Flounder Fishing: Flounder can be caught almost every way that you can catch red bass. You can catch a few on plugs, but plug fishing for flounder is pretty tough. The best way is live bait of soft plastics fished near or on the bottom. (May thru December)
Tarpon Fishing: Tarpon can be caught on an assortment of plugs, soft plastics and live or cut bait or the fly. (June thru October)
Shark Fishing: Sharks are mostly caught on live or cut bait at the jetties. Some of the bad boys are pushing 150 pounds and are all that most anglers can handle. (June thru October)
Sheepshead Fishing:  Sheepshead are generally caught at the jetties using shrimp or fiddler crabs. But can occasionally be caught in the river or creeks while fishing with a shrimp and jig or on the  flooded grass flats using a fly or a shrimp on a bare hook. (November thru April)
Ladyfish Fishing:  Ladyfish are best caught on just about anything that you toss in their direction. The fly rod is a great way to catch them or if rod and reel is your ticket then a Clark Spoon is a great way to get maximum fun from these aerial fish. (June thru September)
Spanish Mackerel Fishing: Spanish can be caught on all of the ways as Ladyfish and trolling a Clark Spoon behind a planner.  When these fish are in, you can catch a cooler full of these very tasty Mackerel. (April thru June)
Black Drum Fishing: Black Drum are usually caught in the river or at the jetties, fishing your bait (shrimp, squid, clams, crab) on the bottom. These fish sometimes range upwards of 100 pounds. (October thru April)
Jack Crevalle Fishing:  This fish is by far the bulldog of saltwater fish and can be caught on just about anything. They range in size from 1 to 25 pounds. The smaller ones are a blast, the big ones can be an all day job. (May thru October)
We have many other inshore species that are available for you to catch. I just touched on a few. Some of these species are seasonal and some are hear year round.
