Our Milton fishing charter focuses on the rich inshore waters where redfish thrive among diverse structures.

The Avalon area offers ideal habitat for redfish year-round, but summer trips like this one benefit from stable weather patterns and consistent fish activity.

Captain Jamie's intimate knowledge of these waters means you'll spend more time catching and less time searching.
Milton's inshore waters feature a mix of flats, channels, and structure that hold redfish throughout the year. Summer conditions generally provide calm waters and cooperative fish, with partly cloudy days like we experienced offering ideal visibility without excessive heat. The occasional chance of rain actually benefits fishing by triggering feeding activity.
For the best results when targeting Milton redfish, we recommend light to medium tackle that provides both sensitivity for detecting subtle bites and enough backbone to handle these powerful fish. Live bait produces consistently, but we also have success with artificial lures, especially during active feeding periods. Weather patterns can shift quickly in this region, so we always monitor conditions closely and adjust our locations and techniques accordingly to keep you on fish.
Our 4-hour inshore trips depart early morning to take advantage of peak feeding periods. We provide a well-maintained boat with all necessary safety equipment, comfortable seating, and shade options for those sunny Florida days. All fishing gear is included – quality rods, reels, tackle, and bait optimized for the species we'll be targeting.
We recommend bringing sun protection (hat, sunglasses, sunscreen), weather-appropriate clothing, a camera, and any preferred drinks or snacks. Bottled water is provided on all trips. For the most comfortable experience, non-marking shoes and layered clothing are ideal as Florida weather can change quickly. Our goal is making your time on the water both productive and enjoyable, regardless of your fishing experience level.
