Returning Anglers Stack Steady Catches

Rocky Creek Charters wrapped up another productive outing with returning anglers Adam, Don, and Chris from the Kissimmee area. Conditions supported consistent action, and the crew released a notable number of fish throughout the trip. Redfish and sea trout remained dependable targets in the shallows, while cobia and false albacore added steady energy offshore. The group showed strong angling skills and filled the board with quality catches before releasing many back to the water. Their continued visits are appreciated, and this session delivered another successful day on the water with reliable late-season coastal action.

Checked off a bucket list item: Scalloping with Captain Frank It is the experience of a lifetime

November 6, 2025

First time to Steinhatchee and to Scalloping. Frank is a great boat captain, knowledgeable, fun to go out with and seems to truly care that you have a great experience. I loved being able to go out of the creek instead of Steinhatchee river, it saved us a lot of time. Highly recommend his company!

November 6, 2025

What an amazing time with the Family. Frank is as good a captain as they come. He knows the area well and put us on the fish.

November 6, 2025

Captain Frank was wonderful and our family had a great time. Beautiful location. No on was catching too much that day, and we caught 2, so we were ahead of ever around us! We will absolutely be back. Hooting to do some scalloping with Captain Frank this summer!

November 6, 2025
