Half Day "Turkey Point Trout Shootout" Fishing Trip (4 hrs)
The "Turkey Point Trout Shootout" is a shallow waters fishing trip. Turkey Point is just west of the marina making for a quick short ride. It's somewhat protected waters, so its a great trip for those that don't have their sea legs yet. We have substituted this trip for the "Reef Runner" when the seas are rough and the customer still wants to fish. Trout is the target species we fish for. We fish by drifting in shallow water, casting (shootout) light tackle with artificial lures on floating poppers. You slowly retrieve your lure, the fish will strike and the fight is on. We also will have a live bait out there just waiting for something big to strike. Bluefish, Ladyfish, Spanish Mackerel and Shark are other fish that are often caught on this trip. During this trip the boat will be drifting close to shore at most times.
This trip is available March-October only, no licence is required.

Half Day "Dog Island Drop" Fishing Trip (5 hrs)
Gag Grouper Season Opens 9/1/24. We can fish this trip all year but must release gag grouper when not in season. There are other types of fish that will be caught and can be kept.
The "Dog Island Drop" trip is a run of about 14 miles from the marina and about 9 miles offshore of Dog Island. This area has a great natural bottom in about 35 feet of water. There are also some artificial reefs in the area. Summer months we will stop on dog Island reef and catch some pinfish to use as live bait. We fish by drifting, trolling or anchoring and dropping weighted lines to the bottom with cut squid and LYs as well as a flat line with a live bait on the surface. Our target fish is Grouper, there will be an abundance of other fish that will be caught. Rock Bass, White Grunt, Big Spanish Mackerel, King Mackerel and if lucky enough Cobia. It is literally a smorgasbord of fish species in this area. During this trip the boat will be drifting or anchored at most times.

Half Day "Reef Runner" Fishing Trip (4 hrs)
The "Reef Runner" trip is a run of about 3 miles off shore to Dog Island Reef. The reef is about 7 miles long and carries a depth of 2 to 6 feet with the surrounding waters steeply dropping off to near 20 feet. This makes for amazing fish habitat. We fish by trolling lures behind the boat while skirting the Reef. Our target fish is the Spanish Mackerel, a good eating hard fighting and abundant species during the season. Other Fish that are caught are Blue Fish & Lady Fish, these are quickly identified since they are real jumpers when hooked. Fun to catch but not the best for table fare. Last but not least is the chance you may hook into a Smoker Kingfish. During this trip the boat will be on the move at most times.
This trip is available March-September only, no licence is required.
