About Skunk Fishing
Lets Fish
100% Skunk Insured! If we don’t catch a fish, I will offer to refund the entire cost of your trip! This is my job, and I will do everything I can to uphold my reputation.
Hey everyone, my name is Josh, and I’m strictly an inshore fishing guide who has a passion for catching trout and redfish.
Trout and redfish are not easy to catch, but are undoubtedly the most rewarding inshore species. They take some serious patience and angling skill, and that’s what I'm here for. I love sharing my knowledge and techniques on how to hunt for these fish. We can go after trophy trout or slot trout/redfish that we can keep for you to fry up.
This is not some boring bottom fishing or trolling trip. You will be actively casting.
The day on the water…
We will start all trips at 6 am. My trips are a 6-hour minimum. If the fish are being difficult, I will gladly extend our time on the water to make sure we have a great day. I do not believe in rushing you back to the dock because our time is up. I enjoy being out on the water! We are here for memories and the experience, so let’s make the best of it!
We will be in a 24-foot bay boat. I will provide all rods and tackle needed to fish from the boat with lures or bait. I will also provide ice, water, and bait for every trip. Snacks and any drinks other than water will be on the customer. Alcohol is certainly allowed.
I do not mind taking a break from fishing and letting you enjoy the day, however you'd like. Sightseeing, bird/dolphin watching, going to a restaurant on the water or sandbar, and having a drink is certainly not out of the ordinary. I'm all for a good time.
Due to safety concerns, I do not allow children under 13 years old.
Book on Tue/Wed and we can go take a break to watch the Blue Angels practice shows.

Great Day Fishing
VERIFIED on June 24, 2025
Had a great day on the water with Capt Josh. It is obvious he loves what he does and his passion to catch fish is contagious. The bite was off and on but Josh continued to find spots to give us chances to hook up. We took a little break and watched the Blue Angels which was awesome! Josh ended up staying out a couple hours past our scheduled time to make sure we caught more fish. We went home with some great memories and a cooler full of fresh fillets for dinner! Highly recommend Josh and Skunk Fishing! Highly recommend bay/inshore fishing over deep sea/outshore fishing! A lot more fishing and less “boat riding”. We will be back next summer and hope to get out on the water with Josh again!

Unforgettable Day on the Water
VERIFIED on April 22, 2025
From start to finish, this fishing trip was absolutely top-notch! The captain was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and made sure everyone felt comfortable—whether you were a seasoned angler or brand new to fishing. The boat was clean and well-equipped, and we hit some amazing spots. We caught a ton of fish and even saw dolphins along the way! It was clear they really love what they do and go the extra mile to make the experience special. Highly recommend booking—you won’t regret it!

Had a Blast!
VERIFIED on July 31, 2025
We had a great trip with Josh. We caught a good many trout and 1 nice red. My son was so happy as he had wanted to catch a red for awhile. Josh was super nice and helpful and even when the bite slowed down (we were doing a trip during the hottest part of July so I wasn't sure how active the fish would be) we had fun and were always active. We even had a blast catching the live bait which was usually better than what we catch from the pier or surf most of the time. My son and his friend said this was the best charter they had been on and they're tough to please being impatient teenagers:) I highly recommend Josh for your fishing guide and will look to book him again when we return next year.

Trip of a lifetime
VERIFIED on August 1, 2025
This was the best fishing trip ever. Josh really knows the water and what he is doing he is definitely going to put you on some awesome fish!!! We caught many huge and beautiful trout and a one massive redfish. I will definitely book this trip next time around and also book a longer one. Josh definitely hasn’t going on it was an absolute blast and we were on fish the whole time. If you’re in the area you have to book a trip with Josh he really is an awesome guide.
