The fun has just begun as you now fight and play your fish to the boat. Oh Yeah, all this is done in calm shallow water which means NO SEASICKNESS.

Both flats fishing boats available are stable, dry and a fast ride. Powered by new Yahamas means you get there fast, increasing YOUR fishing time. Our boats were designed by confident fishermen for the shallow waters of Florida. The hulls eat up a chop while others may leave you wet and sore. Join him for an exciting day stalking bonefish, battling tarpon, casting to barracudas or one of the many other species of fish the Florida Keys backcountry has to offer.
