The ultimate Flats trip for the solo fly or spin angler. Whether you're a seasoned pro or a "first timer" looking for that 'Catch of A Lifetime'- the flats of Indian River is where you'll find it. Fishing as a solo angler will maximize your catching potential. Making that 'Inshore Slam' you've been hoping for- much more attainable. The fish on these flats will test your ability to be quick and accurate. By fishing with Capt. Mark one on one you have the potential to capitalize on each and every shot you get. Safety, weather conditions, less boat weight, and better interaction between you and your captain are some additional reasons a solo angler trip is recommended. Capt. Mark's skiff allows us to take advantage of the shallow flats while also providing a silent and stealthy approach to the most wary of fish. It has been constructed to get us into mere inches of water enabling us to pole easily within close casting distance of fish tailing in as little as 6 inches of water. Aside from our targeted redfish, snook, trout, and tarpon- you can also expect shots at barracuda, jacks, snappers, and sharks. Our service will provide all of the necessary equipment; Fly Rods, Spinning Rods, lures and/or bait. However, you are welcome to bring your own equipment. **Guide fees include bait, water, fuel, ice, tackle and expertise. Other beverages, lunches and tips are not included. Deposit is required**

Shark fishing provides an adrenaline-pumping experience for anglers seeking a true test of skill and strength. Various shark species inhabit coastal and offshore waters, offering diverse challenges. From the powerful bull sharks of Florida to the thresher sharks off the Northeast, shark fishing is an unforgettable adventure.

Effective shark fishing demands heavy-duty tackle. Use a conventional reel with 80-pound test or higher, a sturdy rod, and a wire leader to withstand their sharp teeth. Popular baits include mackerel, bluefish, and tuna. Chumming is crucial to attract sharks. Employ circle hooks for responsible catch and release. Target areas with strong currents, drop-offs, and structure where sharks hunt.

Shark fishing seasons vary by species and location. Generally, warmer months bring sharks closer to shore. In Florida, winter can be productive for species like hammerheads. In the Northeast, summer and fall offer opportunities for makos and threshers. Check local regulations for size limits and protected species.

New to shark fishing? Start with an experienced captain or guide. They provide essential knowledge of local waters, bait, and techniques. Safety is paramount. Handle sharks with care and follow responsible catch-and-release practices. Focus on areas with deep water and strong currents. Be prepared for a challenging fight and respect these apex predators.
