We enjoyed a half-day trip that combined offshore and inshore fishing, focusing on redfish. Travis delivered an impressive outing, helping us reel in a good number of snapper and other offshore species, followed by exciting redfish catches. Whether keeper-sized or not, the overall experience was fantastic, and we look forward to booking another trip—perhaps to target tarpon next time!
