***** Redfish & Snook are catch and release only on my charters to allow our fishery to continue to flourish. Many guides are doing the same thing as we all share the same interest in the fishery here in Southwest Floirda. We can keep a few Trout and possibly some Snapper or Sheepshead but thats about it for Inshore. If your looking for a meat trip then book a offshore trip.
