The Captain's Log

Greetings to all!  Things are picking up a little bit as we get closer to our season down here.  Most of the charter boats are finishing up there maintenance and starting to fish again here and there.  Some sailfish and kingfish have been showing up off the edge of the reef, and some good snapper, grouper, and mutton fishing is going on too.  There's been some good snook action in the everglades park as well as some redfish, trout, and some smaller tarpon.  Bonefishing nearby has been decent too.  Lots of action to be had, let's go fishing!  305-664-2461

Sawfish in the backcountry!

Capt. Jim Willcox along with some other guides here have caught sawfish a few days this past week.  These creatures are pretty amazing and have been making a comeback after being nearly extinct!  Jim's customers caught this 500 lber and got this great shot of it attacking the boat with its saw!!
