Choctawhatchee Bay Fishing Report
It’s a great month to go out fishing as the catches remain strong. Let’s get into the water and experience the bites of Spotted Sea Trout and Sheepshead. Other than the two, Redfish is at its best! Went out and caught a beauty, after measuring and weighing, all I can say is wow! 30” & 10#. They are fattening up for winter and fishing is at its best for the year! Join me and book a trip.

Bulls are showing up early!
Pretty awesome timing with fall break getting underway! Still have a Jack Crevale popping up. Hook into either species and it'll be a trip that you'll never forget!

Ratings & Reviews Summary
December 3, 2025
We had an AMAZING experience with Trey! Trey grew up in the area so he definitely knows where to go. He told stories and kept us entertained throughout the whole trip! We ended up landing a couple of nice fish and had fun doing it! He has an obvious passion for fishing and was just as happy as we were to catch fish. I can not recommend him enough(:
December 3, 2025
We all had a great time fishing with “Cap’n Trey”!!! Boys got a little tired and hot but Trey found us some shade to keep on fishing in for a while. Think the boys loved riding on the boat and seeing some dolphins more than reeling in the cats. All in all was a great day on the water. Thank you for a good time!
December 3, 2025
Capt Trey was great with the kids. Got to see some local spots and bring in some nice fish!
December 3, 2025
My son and I went on a trip with Rising Sons Expeditions while on a family vacation. Capt Trey was great and very knowledgeable about the fishery and local area as well. Caught a bunch of Redfish and thoroughly enjoyed our time on the water. We will certainly book again when we are back in the area. Thanks Capt!
December 3, 2025
Captain Trey accepted a same day. booking within hours of departure. Told us we would be trying for redfish and trout, the wind was not cooperating so we hit the backwaters where we used live bait caught by Cpt Trey prior to our arrival. We caught a reds, stingrays, and trout. Boat was real nice and stable being a catamaran hull.
December 3, 2025
Captain Trey was the best! We got 3 boys and 2 adults on the water. Several redfish, a catfish, even a dolphin sighting! Good day on the water and Trey went above and beyond!
