The horizon on a Blue Heron morning cuts a clean line between sky and Gulf Stream—salt on the air, gulls circling, and a steady aluminum hull set to drift. Passengers step aboard a roomy, USCG-compliant drift vessel and settle into cushioned seating while the crew runs through safety and bait rigs. In 20–40 minutes the boat slips over productive grounds: natural and artificial reefs that sit in 50–200 feet of water, where currents and structure call game fish close to shore.
