The rich waters of Florida offer an extensive list of target species. Closer to the shore, aim for Tarpon, Snook, Spotted Trout, and Mangrove Snapper. Venture a few miles further to encounter Kingfish, Amberjack, Cobia, Grouper, Red Snapper, and Skipjack Tuna. Benefit from a catch-and-clean service provided by the first mate.

As a delightful bonus, you can keep your catch, and Captain Richard ensures it's cleaned for you. Your fishing experience is enhanced with quality Penn and Shimano rods and reels, live bait, and fresh water.
