Not sure which trip? Take the Trip Finder →Inshore fishing is our bread and butter. We work the NSB Intracoastal, the NSB backwaters and the Edgewater mangroves, from grass flats to bridge pilings and dock lines. The water is sheltered and calm, so it's the best choice for families, first-timers and anyone who'd rather skip the ocean swell.
What will we catch inshore?
Redfish, spotted seatrout, snook and black drum year-round, plus sheepshead in winter. Book the 6-hour trip and we'll pole the backcountry flats for tailing reds on sight.
Can we keep redfish?
Not right now. Redfish in the Indian River Lagoon management region are catch-and-release under current FWC rules. Trout, black drum and sheepshead can be kept in season within the limits. See what's open today on Seasons & Regs.

For first light, the Sunrise Strike (4 hours, $600, 6:30 AM). For a full day with a lunch stop at a waterfront restaurant by boat, Hook, Line, & Lunch (8 hours, $1,000, food not included). With young kids, the Family Quick Bite (2 hours, $375). After dark, the Night Bite (4 hours, $600).
