Reeling in Adventure: A Thrilling Inshore Fishing Expedition
It was a beautiful June morning when Alex and their crew joined us at Milton, FL for a 4 Hour Trip – Inshore (Day) with Addicted to Scales & Tail Charters. The weather was partly cloudy with some afternoon rain, but we were determined to make the most of it and get them on some quality inshore fish. The waters around Garcon Point are known for their diverse population of Spotted Weakfish, Redfish, and even the occasional Atlantic Sharpnose Shark, especially during the summer months. We started the day off with some jigging and fly fishing, targeting the deeper channels and structure where the Weakfish and Redfish like to hang out. It didn't take long before one of the rods started screaming—Alex had hooked into a nice Spotted Weakfish that put up an impressive fight. After getting that fish in the boat, the action stayed steady, and we started picking up a few more Weakfish, as well as some nice Redfish. The fly rods got in on the action too, with a few Reds smashing the flies we were working. As the afternoon rolled in, the weather shifted a bit, and we decided to switch over to some heavier tackle to target the larger predators. And boy, were we glad we did! One of the anglers in the group got absolutely spooled when a big Atlantic Sharpnose Shark hammered their bait. After a lengthy battle, we were able to leader the fish, snap a few pics, and send it on its way. The rain held off just long enough for us to enjoy the excitement before we called it a day. If you're looking to experience some of the best inshore fishing the Florida Panhandle has to offer, the 4 Hour Trip – Inshore (Day) with Addicted to Scales & Tail Charters is a must. Whether you're targeting Spotted Weakfish, Redfish, or even the chance at a hard-fighting Sharpnose, we'll put you on the fish and make sure you have an unforgettable time out on the water.

Exhilarating Inshore Adventure: Avalon's Redfish and Weakfish Bonanza
Avalon, Florida is a prime spot for inshore fishing in May, with the warming waters and abundant baitfish drawing in some of the best gamefish the area has to offer. That's exactly what we set out to experience on this 4 Hour Inshore Fishing Private Trip with Addicted to Scales & Tail Charters. As we launched the boat at 2306 N 14th Ave and headed out, the partly cloudy skies and calm waters had me feeling optimistic about the day ahead. We started off slow, working the flats with some light tackle and fly fishing, but it didn't take long before the action started to pick up. I saw a big Redfish smash a topwater lure, and Brian was quick to hook into it, putting up an impressive fight before we got it in the boat. That first fish set the tone for the rest of the trip - we found the schools of Spotted Weakfish busting baitfish, and Brian was on them, working jigs and heavy tackle to pull in fish after fish. The back and forth kept us on our toes, but that's what makes these inshore trips so much fun. You never know what's going to hit next, and having to adjust your techniques on the fly is all part of the thrill. Between fish, we'd take a quick break to admire the beautiful Avalon scenery and talk about the day's highlights. It was shaping up to be one of those trips you just don't want to end. If you're looking to experience the best inshore fishing Avalon, Florida has to offer, I can't recommend Addicted to Scales & Tail Charters enough.

Reeling in Redfish and Trout: 3 days of Unforgettable Inshore Adventurri
What an awesome 3 day trip on the water with Scott out in Milton, Florida! The weather was a bit iffy early on, with some light rain, but it cleared up nicely and we ended up having a great time chasing Spotted Seatrout and Redfish (Red Drum) on our 4 Hour Trip – Inshore (Day) with Addicted to Scales & Tail Charters. March is a prime time for inshore fishing around these parts, with the warming waters bringing the fish up and actively feeding. We started off slow, working some shallow flats with jigs and fly gear, but it didn't take long before the action picked up. Scott made a perfect cast, and his line went screaming as he hooked into a feisty Redfish. That fish made some great runs, but he kept his cool and landed it like a pro. We switched up tactics, trying some heavier tackle in deeper pockets, and it paid off – he boated a nice fat Spotted Seatrout that put up one heck of a fight.The bite stayed steady throughout the day, and we managed to get into a few more quality fish. In between catches, we just enjoyed being out on the water, taking in the Avalon scenery and having some good laughs. That's what makes these inshore trips so much fun – the constant action, the beautiful surroundings, and getting to share it all with a fellow angler.If you're looking to experience the best inshore fishing Milton, Florida has to offer, be sure to book your 4 Hour Trip – Inshore (Day) with Addicted to Scales & Tail Charters.

Pensacola Bay Inshore Slam: 4-Hour Fishing Thrill with Addicted to Scales & Tail
It was a beautiful day to get out on the water with the crew for our 4-Hour Inshore Fishing Private Trip with Addicted to Scales & Tail Charters in Pensacola Bay, Florida. March is a prime time for inshore fishing in this area, with the warming waters bringing the Spotted Seatrout and Redfish (Red Drum) shallow and hungry. We met up at the marina at 9:00 AM, ready to chase some quality inshore species. As we headed out, the water was calm and clear - perfect conditions for sight-fishing and working the flats. We started off with some light tackle, casting and working our way along the shoreline. It didn't take long before Steve had a heavy hit, and after a spirited fight, he landed a nice Redfish. That really got the juices flowing, and the rest of the group started dialing in the bites. We switched it up, adding some fly rods and heavier gear to our arsenal, working different presentations to trigger more strikes. The Spotted Seatrout were stacked up, and we had a blast watching them smash our offerings. It was nonstop action, with everyone getting in on the fun. The trip had a great vibe - lots of laughs, high fives, and friendly competition as we worked to outdo each other. But at the end of the day, it was just about being out on the water, enjoying the beautiful Florida scenery and the thrill of the hunt. Even when the bite slowed down a bit, we still had a great time, taking in the sights and relishing the experience.
