Boat & TackleYour adventures IN THE WILD will be based on a 17’10" Traveler flats boat. This wide beamed boat at 94" is very stable with large decks fore and aft that should let you keep your mind on fishing and not about losing your balance or falling out of the boat. It floats in about 11’ of water which will allow you to sight cast to those skinny water redfish. At your option bass type seats are available depending on personal preference and the type of fishing you choose.This rig is powered by a 1998 model 115 hp. Mercury that will get you on and off the flat in a hurry when necessary, but will be operated with your safety and comfort in mind. All equipment, tackle, flies, etc. are supplied. Quality Redington, STH, Lamson and Scientific Angler products will be used for fly fishing. Conventional tackle includes ABU Garcia, Penn and Bionic Blade. I personally tie and provide the flies. Flies are available for purchase for your own adventures. Most all of the fly fishing opportunities are attempted with 8 or 9 wt. outfits that I supply. On non-windy days and open unobstructed flats it possible to use 5 and 6 wt. outfits. Your welcome to bring your own and give it a try. Also I provide 12 wt. equipment for attempting large snook around lighted docks at night. This is not to be confused with our regular night snook trips that target smaller 3-5 lb. snook in which 8-9 wt. is adequate. Twelve lb. class spinning
equipment is provided primarily for open flat fishing for mostly reds,
trout and sometimes snook.
14-20 lb. bait-casting equipment is provided for back country fishing where
its necessary to pull snook and reds
out of the mangroves.
