End of October Fishing Report!

Well we got this place as a recommendation to cook our fish that we just caught! Great and staff super nice. The Conch Fritters were delicious. Our Snapper was cooked in a sautéed way. But be specific on how you want to cook "your" fish. We thought it was sautéed but actually came sautéed in a battered egg covering. We just wanted the delicious fresh fish taste which didn't happen.
Cole slaw God and basic salad was fine.
Would recommend this place. Good service, good fritters and of course my fish.

We booked a trip with Captain Tyler Valles to fish the flats and backcountry. Captain Tyler was very accommodating, extremely knowledgeable, and motivated to provide everything we wanted to experience. His experience and professionalism made this an outstanding trip that we will definitely book again the next time we are in the Keys.
