FISHING IN CRYSTAL RIVER

Crystal River and the Nature Coast isn't only known for it's world class fishing with the multiple fish species that make the clear water and endless mangrove islands their home, it's also known for its pure old Florida views. The experience starts when we leave from the dock with the breath taking views of the Crystal River then cruising through the remote mangrove islands in the St. Martins aquatic preserve to find clean, clear water with fields of sea grass beds and healthy, colorful coral reefs.
