About Your Trip

Head out with Captain Leon for an awesome inshore fishing experience in the rich waters off Crystal River, FL. This area has a huge variety of different fish species, from classics like Redfish, Drum, and Trout, to gamefish such as Cobia and Snook! You name it, Captain Leon will help you land it!

To hook these fish, you will be mostly fishing the inshore bays and flats in the King's Bay area. These flats are
a perfect place to practice sightcasting to tailing Reds, so bring your A-game. There is nothing more rewarding than spotting, stalking, and making a perfect cast to an unsuspecting fish. The rush of that hook set is an experience you won't soon forget. Captain Leon is adept at teaching new fishermen these techniques, so whether you're a seasoned veteran looking for your next trophy or a beginner looking to learn the ropes, Captain Leon will work his hardest to make sure you have the best possible experience out on the water!

You'll fish from the deck of his 21' Carolina Skiff bay boat—an ideal vessel for these waters. She's powered by a 115 HP Yamaha, so you'll be on fish smoothly and comfortably. Everything for your trip is included, but you're more than welcome to bring any of your own gear if you like. Otherwise, all you need to bring are your favorite snacks and drinks, and Captain Leon will take care of the rest!

He's a firm believer in getting kids outside and showing them what nature has to offer.

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!

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!
