April Proves To Be Even Better Than March for Offshore Fishing

Oops… He did it again! Captain Morgan limited out in Red Grouper by Noon on only two stops and a box and a half of bait! This charter is one for the books and would have made even the most experienced fisherman jealous. Fish after fish was pulled on board including some pretty impressive Reds along with some yummy Lane Snappers. These guys were gassed as they made their hour and a half ride back to Maximo Marina where Captain Morgan beautifully filleted these trucks and sent everyone home with a care package!

Yacht Fishing at it’s Finest. Huge Gag Grouper Caught Inside Tampa Bay Near Skyway Bridge.

Who says you can’t haul in some big fish on a yacht or that you have to go offshore to do so. Captain Morgan ran the sleek and sexy 72 Princess Motor-yacht, known as the ‘Jaguar’, to one of his secret inshore spots where he knows Grouper like to hide. This kid was ecstatic as he got to reel in this monster Gag Grouper! Sadly, we had to return this beauty to the bay but we finished the night by preparing and serving one of his other catches (a hefty Red Grouper) to his family for dinner! What a day! Book your personal fishing adventure with Captain Morgan NOW!

Captain Brian Morgan headed up 2 back to back off shore trips to fish for Red Grouper, Gag Grouper, Triggerfish, Sea Bass, Mangrove Snapper, and Gray Snapper. He took guests 9-11 miles out and allowed everyone on board an opportunity to reel some fish and bring home dinner!

“We came all the way from Minnesota to fish in the gulf. Captain Morgan did a great job ensuring that we had a perfect trip and that even our 12 year old was able to catch fish. We will definitely be chartering him on his personal boat in the future.”

–Graham W. (Minnesota Tourist)
