About Your Trip

From hundreds of miles of creeks, rivers, lakes, and tidal marshes, to fifty-plus miles of white sandy beaches and Apalachicola Bays barrier islands. Nearly half of the local barrier islands are owned by the state or federal government, they are uninhabited, and very few people visit them keeping them in that sublime natural state that simply takes your breath away. They are wonderful, beautiful, pristine and waiting for you and your family to enjoy.

So head out with Captain Greg and get ready for a relaxing day exploring the surrounding water chasing these unpressured local fish like Reds, Pompano, Black Drum, Sheepshead and Speckled Trout. You can take a stab at it with a 12' fiberglass pole paired with minnows, or you can do some light casting and spinning tackle if that's what you're looking for. You can to sit back, relax, enjoy the sweet sea breeze, and rest your arms while you wait for the reel to start screaming or you can be as active and engaged as you would like, with years of guiding experience Captain Greg can cater your trip to your goals for the day. Captain Greg grew up fishing in Apalachicola and has a passion for meeting new people, so expect some expert guidance no matter how engaged you'd like to be!

You'll be fishing aboard an impressive 24’ Proline with a 225 HP Evinrude that can comfortably fit 4 anglers. The Evinrude engine can be cranked up to a top speed of 45 knots which makes it an ideal vehicle for inshore and nearshore adventures.

Captain Greg provides all rods, reels, and tackle, and live. All you need to bring is sunglasses, sunscreen, and any snacks, drinks and motion sickness relief you might need. Captain Greg will also clean any keepers for no additional cost. Feel free to take your young ones along; Captain Greg knows how to keep them entertained with some exciting fishing!

We vet our guides to make sure they are the best of the best. We want guides who not only put you on 'em, but show you a great time, keep you safe, and give you a memorable experience with your group.

Once you've paid your deposit at checkout, we'll send you a boarding pass. Just show your guide your boarding pass on the day of the trip, they'll scan it, the remaining balance will transfer automatically, and you'll be all set to get out there. Just make sure you bring a cash tip for the guide!

In the case of inclement weather, our guides will make the call and we'll work with you to reschedule your trip or issue a credit for the full deposit of the trip to be used on any of our trips across the country. Your safety is our top concern.

Each trip’s price is set by the guide and factors in all of their costs. A big determinant of cost is often the type of boat and associated fuel costs, but other guide costs include leases, marina / slip fees, bait costs, and the cost to provide and maintain all of the gear you’ll need on your trip.

Once you book the trip, we will connect you directly with the guide to go over any additional details. In the meantime, our team is always available to answer your questions via email, text, chat, or call!
