Capt. Billy offers a variety of trips depending on what style of fishing you prefer. Trips are available for everyone from the seasoned fly fishermen to the novice spin fisherman. No matter what type of fishing you like to do, Capt. Billy can put you on fish. Many anglers prefer to use spin tackle to target saltwater gamefish, and some types of fishing during certain seasons requires it. Capt Billy offers top of the line spin tackle for these anglers, coupled with the right techniques to put fish in the boat. With spin tackle, a combination of lures and live baits are used depending on the scenario, allowing for a wide variety of opportunities in targeting different species. Spin tackle is also a great choice for the novice angler, Capt Billy has put many people on great fish using this tackle even if they’ve never fished before! On some trips, a combination of both spin and fly throughout the day works best for anglers who are able to use both types of tackle.
