Inshore — Year-round

Inshore on the flats.

Half-day and full-day charters for speckled trout, redfish, and snook on Florida's Nature Coast.

01 The Trip

Sought-after species in classic Homosassa style.

Experience the thrill of inshore fishing with our guided charters on Florida's Gulf Coast. Whether you're a seasoned angler or out for the first time, our expert guides put you on some of the region's most sought-after species — snook, speckled trout, and redfish. Trips are built around the tides and seasons for the best shot at your dream catch.

Choose between two classic rigs: the fully restored 1968 Flatback AquaSport 222 for a smooth, nostalgic ride, or the sleek East Cape Vantage for quietly poling the flats. Half-day (4-hour) and full-day (8-hour) trips are available and tailored to your goals.
