Perfect for families, beginners, and anglers who want action close to the coast.
These trips take you just outside the inlets and up to a few miles off the beach, where the nearshore reefs, ledges, and bait lines hold fast-moving predators and steady bottom action.
🎯 What We Target
Nearshore waters are loaded with seasonal species and nonstop opportunities. Depending on conditions and time of year, we commonly target:
- Spanish Mackerel
- King Mackerel
- Red Drum
- Grey Trout (Weakfish)
- Atlantic Bonito / False Albacore
- A mix of bottom species (Black Sea Bass, Grunts, Porgies, etc.)
This trip is ideal if you want a high-energy morning or afternoon with plenty of bites and fast-paced fishing.
🎣 Fishing Techniques We Use
You can choose the style of fishing you enjoy most — or we can combine techniques for maximum excitement:
- Trolling for Spanish & Kings
- Bottom Fishing over reefs & structure
- Drift Fishing to cover water and stay on the bite
- Or a combo of them all
Your captain will adjust the plan based on weather, tides, and where the fish are biting that day.
