Trips start around 7:00-8:00 AM, meeting at one of the Charlotte Harbor area boat launches. Trips last 4-6 hours and are flexible and tailored to meet your needs.

Most trips are a combination of sight fishing and blind casting in shallow water, using floating lines. On occasions, we might use sinking intermediate lines along oyster reefs, banks, and holes.
