Family Fishing Trips

One of the true joys of my job is teaching and sharing fishing with the next generation. I love taking families out to our beautiful waterway and am happy to customize the trip to exactly what your group wants to do for the trip. 

The waves are never bad, and we can stay very close to the harbor and have an amazing time. With over 30 years of experience in Backcountry fishing, we can be targeting popular Floridian catches like Redfish, Permit, Tarpon, Blacktip Shark, Mangrove Snapper, Mutton Snapper, Goliath Grouper, Speckled Trout, Snook, Bull Shark, Yellowtail, and Pompano. I offer special trips for military veterans, so be sure to reach out for more details.

Your trip includes all premium fishing gear and a fishing license, so all you need to bring is a positive attitude and your sunglasses. Join me for a day of incredible fishing memories!
