About This Adventure
#Fish amidst the mysteries of shipwrecks, hard bottom reefs up to 9 miles from Shore.
##Duration 6 Hours
##About We will fish anything from wrecks, reefs, and hard bottom in the Gulf of Mexico. Depending on the time of year our targets will consist of Cobia, Grouper, Tripletail, and my personal favorite the Permit. I often describe a permit to my customers as a "Jack Crevalle on steroids." There’s just is nothing like sighting a 35lb+ Permit swimming by the boat, throwing a crab in front of him and watching him eat it. This is followed by that wonderful sound of the drag singing its sweet tune. All Above Species are Seasonal Species
