Southern Cut Charters runs flyfishing and light tackle inshore trips out of Tarpon Springs and offers to show you what the local fishery is all about.
Capt. Gage will do his best to make sure you have a fun day full of fishing. He specializes in fly fishing to get you on that bite. This involves 4 to 8-hour trips, mainly fishing for Redfish, Snook, Tarpon, and other inshore fish depending on the season and conditions on the day.
Your boat for the day will be an 18' Ankona that fits up to 2 anglers at any one time. The boat comes with an ice box, and a wireless trolling motor.
When it comes to rods, reels, and terminal tackle, everything you need is included in the price. As for fishing licenses, everything will be taken care of by the captain so you don't have to worry about it. You can keep anything you catch, as long as it's legal to do so.
You'll find free water on the boat for your convenience, but you're always welcome to pack your own drinks and snacks should you want to.
Book your trip now and hit the water with Southern Cut Charters.

4 days with Captain Gage Vaughn
Full Day Trip on June 7, 2025
I recently fished with Captain Gage Vaughn of Southern Cut Charters for 4 days and had an amazing experience with him. It was my first time saltwater fly fishing and he went the extra mile to make sure I got the best experience. We fished dock lights at night, walked the beaches looking for cruising fish in the surf, and slid our way through winding mangroves and beach flats. His experience and knowledge of the area go back generations, and it stands out. The program he runs is dialed in and has something for everyone. Capt. Gage was well prepared and constantly working to make sure I was comfortable during our trip. His passion for guiding is refreshing and his dedication is far above most. 10/10 would recommend Southern Cut Charters to anyone of all skill levels. Beyond being an amazing guide Gage is a great conversationalist, personal hype-man, photographer, adventurous and just an all-around great person.

we are very satisfied with the guiding. Since there was a lot of wind, we were only able to see and fish for a few large fish in the mangroves. But our guide tried very hard and gave us other options. He also showed us many very beautiful natural features. It was a very successful fishing trip. Thank you very much
