A Unique Fishing Experience

Kings Bay, fed by constant 72-degree fresh spring water and inland tributaries, provides the ideal conditions for world class fresh and saltwater fishing. The surrounding area is home to resident snook, redfish and tarpon that are refreshed with migrating fish. Just seven miles from Crystal River is the Gulf of Mexico and its uncountable islands and channels with miles of shoreline and mangroves for the best snook, redfish and seatrout inshore fishing imaginable. Other saltwater species popular in the area are grouper, cobia, barracuda, jack crevalle and amberjack.

The fishing boat pilots are Coast Guard six-pack licensed and excellent, experienced fishing guides knowing how to put you on the fish for an exceptional outing. Tackle is top notch - Abu Garcia/PENN, Berkley and St. Croix - in excellent operating conditions. Baits will be artificial and/or live (price of live bait not included). Most angling will be considered inshore in shallow waters, the best place-to-be to catch more fish.
