Our Boat - The Bad Habit
Been taking advantage of the weather lately. Red snapper have been the target since they have reopened through the end of the year. We have also been blessed with a few special guests along the way with some black grouper, African pompano, cobia, mutton snapper, and even got to tug on some goliath grouper for those of you interested in the “BIG” fish. We still have opportunities available to catch your fair share of these fish. We offer split party charters and whole boat bookings. Our next dates of availability are as follows:![]()
