About Shallow Water Sight Fishing

---

I specialize in both fly fishing and light tackle spin gear with artificial lures.  My favorite thing to do is cruise the flats and mangrove edges looking for cruising or tailing fish in shallow water.  The most common species we target are redfish, snook, trout and tarpon, but sheepshead, jacks and flounder are also common visitors. 

I run an 18' Beavertail Mosquito skiff that can accommodate up to 2 anglers.  It's a great little skiff that can get into very skinny water and access areas that larger boats can't.  It's a comfortable boat to fish from and is very stable for its size.

Charlotte Harbor has an abundance of  natural scenery to experience.  Migratory birds, dolphin and manatees are frequently seen depending on the season. Crystal-clear flats and mangrove lined shorelines of the backcountry, offer two unique experiences on the water.
