Live Bait is an additional expense. We use live shiners, which range from $15 to $20 a dozen. Live bait prices fluctuate with demand and availability. Artificial trips are limited to two anglers per boat for safety reasons.
You should bring your own light weight rain gear, suntan lotion, sunglasses, beverages, and snacks or lunch. You will need a hat or cap, and maybe a light jacket Dec-March.
Guides provide ice and cooler, rods, reels, hooks, line, bobbers, and sinkers. You do not need any tackle for live bait fishing. We use bait casting reels and rods with 17 to 25 lb. test line due to heavy vegetation. Guides will provide assistance and instructions as required to make your day a success. A life vest will be provided for each client.
If you want to fish artificial baits and want to bring your own rod and reel, that's great. Let us know what you want and we'll do everything possible to make it happen.
Our guides are Florida residents.
Please plan your trip well in advance, and feel free to call for additional information or changes to your plans. I look forward to meeting and fishing with you.
