  • “Wow. What a great time. Andy has the perfect boat for the backcountry. He knows where to go and what to do and you end up catching instead of just fishing. I highly recommend him, just leave me some open dates for my return.” -Ronald Frank, Client

  • “Had a great day out on the water with Captain Andy. He found plenty of fish giving us ample opportunity to catch all day. Andy worked hard moving our boat around and giving us instruction, all while carrying on good conversation. Will fish with him again next time I’m, in the Florida Keys.”

  • “Captain Andy is very experienced and knowledgeable. He put us on fish all day long. Brought us to the most beautiful places I’ve ever seen. Definitely a bucket list trip and my son and I walked away with some amazing memories. We will be back again to fish with Captain Andy.”

Guided Fishing Trips

The species you will be chasing include: Tarpon, Snook, Redfish, Permit, Jack Crevalle, Mangrove Snapper, Pompano, Tripletail, Sheepshead, Cobia, and more.
