Fish with Max Fished with Max Gaspeny in the back country for snook, redfish and tarpon. He was a great guide. Fishing was good. And his boat is really comfortable.

Fishing Fun Day We always have a blast with the crew on this charter!! We would always love to catch more fish when we’re out there, but we caught a lot of porgies, some snapper and a hogfish that we couldn’t keep because it wasn’t in season, but it was a lot of fun to catch. Ray was great, as well as the captain when it came to, taking the fish off our hook and keeping track of them. This is something we plan on doing every time we come down! Lots of fun!!
