Your trip begins on board a 18’ Dolphin Backcountry Pro that can fit 2-3 anglers. This skiff is designed with the need to run shallow while still offering a comfortable ride across large open stretches of water. The perfect blend of shallow water capabilities and comfort. The boat is fitted with an ice box.

All rods, reels, and terminal tackle are included in the price so you can focus on what really matters, fishing. The captain will supply all the needed fishing licenses for your trip. You can keep anything you catch, as long as it’s legal to do so.

Capt. John will do his best to make sure you have a fun day full of fishing. He specializes in fly fishing, drift fishing, popping, and spinning, all to get you on that bite. This involves 4 to 10-hour trips, mainly fishing for Barracuda, Tarpon, Snapper, Permit, Jack Crevalle, and Grouper, depending on the season and conditions of the day.

The boat will be supplied with drinks for your pleasure, be sure to let the captain know if you have any questions or want to bring your own. Purple Heron Charters typically departs from the Historic Charter Boat Row unless a different departure location is agreed upon with the captain.
