Our Inshore Fishing Matinee Special Charters are taken in calm protected waters and often feature several species of awesome saltwater fish fish on a one hour trip. While we do fish in areas where we do catch larger game fish, we most commonly target small, easy to catch species. The focus of our One Hour Fishing Matinee Special is fun so keeping fish is sometimes possible but not likely.
