Backcountry is lit up with winter species such as trout, pompano, jacks and lady fish. Some tarpon lurking around in the muds and in the channels. Flats fishing is pretty good for permit and barracudas.

Reef fishing Grouper season is closed till May. Yellowtail, mangrove and mutton snapper fishing is awesome. Weather has been a challlenge.

Comfortable Seating

We chose the Tidewater 24 Bay Max for a few reasons. We needed another boat with a fully enclosed bathroom on board that floated shallow, rode well, was dry, safe and catered to more of what our anglers were looking for from us.

Powered by only Mercury Marine with the brand new Mercury 300 Pro Verado 4 stroke our anglers enjoy quiet smooth operation. With a safe cruising speed of 30 - 35 mph we get you out to the fishing grounds fast and easy.

Dry ride and comfortable safe seating is built into everyone of our boats and especially true with our Tidewater. Bench seat accross the back with a nice wide seat next to the captain as well as another wide seat in front of the console making seating for 4 anglers easy.

For our other bay boats with bathroom please see our Action Craft.

Flats fishign to reef fishing is easy with our Tidewater 24 bay boats. We can carry up to 4 anglers comfortably and pretty much fish anywhere the weather allows. A great boat for our signature All In Wonder fishing charter.

For backcountry fishing charters with more than 4 anglers please see our Center Console fishing boat.

Backcountry Fishing

Using our Tidewater Bay Max 24 ft boats for backcountry fishing has been very effective. Anglers have really enjoyed the shade and the simplicity this boats offers any day of fishing. Whether you are chasing tarpon, shark fishing or catching trout this boat does all of it very well.

Tarpon Fishing

The Tidewater is an amazing platform for tarpon fishing. Equipped with state of the art color electronics from Garmin Marine we have sonars that can spot a single tarpon or groups of hundreds. Using our MotorGuide xi5 trolling motors we can effectively stay in one place to keep our anglers on the tarpon longer and offering better shots. With the 10ft Blade Power Pole we can stay put where the bite is best.

Reef Fishing

A great way to enjoy the day is reef fishing for Yellowtail snappers and other tasty food fish. Our Tidewater makes a great reef boat. Just 6 miles to our south are some of the most bountiful waters around and we take you there to catch the tastiest fish around. Our captains are also happy to fillet your catch so it can be easily prepared at local restaurant.

Signature All In Wonder Fishing

Our "All In Wonder" fishing charter runs very well on board our Tidewater Bay Max 24 bay boat. Shallow for the flats and backcountry fishing. A great tarpon fishing boat and then makes an amazing reef fishing boat to round out this really fun day of fishing. Shade and bathroom with some island tunes make the day drift by nicely with no worries. The wives love these features almost as much as they like catching fish from this boat.

Flats Fishing

The Tidewater makes a very nice flats fishing platform for a bay boat. With a 12 inch draft carrying 2 anglers we effectively fish the flats of Key West and the Marquesas Keys for bonefish and permit just like our flats fishing boats. The added comfort of a bathroom and shade make a nice day for the sun sensitive and the ladies that need the facilities. Our Tidewater is outfitted with the brand new MotorGuide Xi5 digital trolling motors and Power Poles blade. Silent and deadly we can stalk the flats without making a mark or disturbing the fish and with the Power Pole we can hold you in place at a moments notice to get you that shot of a lifetime. All this is giving our anglers a serious advantage.
