About
Enjoy your day sight-fishing redfish around Northeast Florida's expansive saltwater flats and estuaries with a top local guide. Targeting redfish on fly or with the lightest of tackle provides a truly exciting and visual experience year-round. Capt. Jeremiah makes everyone feel confident with a rod in hand, whether it's your first time or you're a seasoned pro. Show up ready to fish, all of our top notch gear is ready to go upon your arrival. We suggest bringing polarized sunglasses, lunch and a camera to capture all of the beauty that this island has to offer.
In the warmer months (Apr.-Nov.) expect to sight-fish the flood tide around the new and full moon for tailing redfish. If a fly is presented correctly expect an aggressive eat as most fish are there to eat in the spartina grass.
In the cooler months (Nov.-Mar.) once the season starts to change and the temp drops expect to see large schools of redfish. This is incredible as we could witness redfish with their backs exposed down the muddy banks and grassy edges, tailing fish at any moment, waking fish in hunt of their next meal or schools of 100 fish.

Multi generational Florida native. I started fishing freshwater when I was able to hold a rod then fell in love with saltwater fishing when I was a young teenager. I love to share my passion with others. Whether they’re a seasoned pro or a beginner everyone feels welcome with a rod in their hand on my boat. I prefer to sight fish redfish in the shallow saltwater flats of NE Florida. In the summer it’s all about tarpon fishing off the beach, Fly or conventional.
