FAQs about Our Services
Do we need prior fishing experience?
Not at all. Captain Grant works with first-timers, kids, and pros alike. He adjusts each trip to fit your comfort level.
What’s the difference between inshore and offshore trips?
Inshore trips stay in bays and flats (calmer waters), targeting redfish, trout, and drum. Offshore trips go into deeper Gulf waters and focus on larger species.
