Highlights of Oriental Fishing

Captain Dave knows these waters intimately, from shallow grass flats to deeper channel edges where fish concentrate.
The protected waters around Oriental make it an ideal launching point for both novice and experienced anglers. Weather conditions are generally favorable, and the shorter runs to productive fishing areas mean more time with lines in the water.
