Take a break from the beach and go fishing!
Depending on the season, you might hook into Amberjack, Great Barracuda, Dolphin (Mahi Mahi), Flounder, Gag Grouper, King Mackerel, Blacktip Shark, Red Snapper, Vermilion Snapper, Grey Snapper, Spanish Mackerel, Scamp Grouper, and many others willing to take the bait.
Depending on the species you’re after, you may find yourself trolling, drifting, jigging, bottom fishing, or free lining. You’re free to keep the fish you catch, so long as regulations allow it. Plus, your captain will clean your catch for dinner at the trips conclusion.
Your excursion begins aboard a 22’ center console Robalo with a deep V hull, repowered in 2023 with a 250 Yamaha. There’s a camper syle port-a-potty in the console for ladies/emergencies, and everything else you’ll need for a productive day on the water.
Capt. Brandon will supply rods and reels, as well as cut-baits and lures. Live bait can be caught on the reef, or you can opt to spend a little time in the morning and pre-load the live-well.
The charter boat covers your fishing license, just show up ready for a good time! Have in mind that you will release some fish due to regulations. Simply ask and your captain can tell you more.
Capt. Brandon is happy to take kids 6 and older, so bring ‘em aboard and get the kids hooked while they’re young!
You will want to bring sunglasses, a hat, sunscreen, plus anything you’d like to eat or drink.
Give yourself something to look forward to and book a trip with Saltwater Fever!

Great Captain, Great Trip!
5 Hours – Offshore Reef Fishing on June 27, 2025 • 3 adults • 1 child
Brandon demonstrated exceptional professionalism and dedication throughout our deep-sea fishing excursion. When storms threatened to cancel our trip, he proactively coordinated a two-hour weather hold that paid off with perfect conditions for the rest of the day.
At our first fishing spot the red snapper bite was outstanding, and we quickly landed several impressive fish. Although the action slowed later, Brandon continually monitored conditions—adjusting depths, relocating us as needed, and maintaining all tackle—to keep our group of four actively reeling in a variety of fish. His timing in moving on from areas where larger fish were stealing our catches was spot-on.
Brandon’s personable manner made the day genuinely enjoyable. At the end of the trip he expertly cleaned and filleted our catch. His advice on drop depths and real-time adjustments was consistently accurate. I highly recommend Brandon and Saltwater Fever to anyone seeking a well-organized, productive deep-sea fishing experience.

5 Hours – Nearshore Sharks on May 5, 2025 • 2 adults
We had an amazing time fishing with Brandon! My wife and I booked a 5 hour nearshore shark fishing trip but when we spoke to him on the phone we told him we aren’t dead set on sharks we just wanted to catch something that put up a good fight. Capt Brandon suggested we go a couple miles out and try for some amberjacks and it absolutely didn’t disappoint!! We started off catching bait fish then we went to the spot and immediately started catching them. Capt Brandon was all over the boat getting things rigged up and out of our way while landing these fish! We caught several amberjacks and many other species throughout the day and we had a great time. I’d recommend him to anyone and we will for sure be back the next chance we get !

Captain Brandon was an excellent guide. He told us from the start it might be rough in the gulf, but he kept us on the fish all morning, moving around if the bite or size wasn’t there. I got to reel in an out-of-season Amberjack and a pair of Triggerfish. We got our limit of Vermilion Snapper within just a few hours, and then went back into the bay and caught trout. I’d definitely book another trip with him.

We had a blast. Captain put us on more Amberjacks than we could handle, and still had time to catch dinner too! We had so much fun we booked the very next day to do it all over again. 10 out of 10.
