Ultimate Angler’s Rush
Just minutes from the inlet you are in the Atlantic Ocean fishing for Kingfish up to 50 lbs, Barracudas up to 40 lbs, Amberjacks up to 50 lbs, Tarpon 30 to 200 lbs, and also Tuna, Dolphin, Wahoo, Sharks, and the occasional Billfish.
We also have great bottom fishing as well for Snapper, Grouper, Seabass, African Pompano, and you just don’t know what else you might hook up unless you are fishing with AC Charters Inc.
When fishing the flats of Cumberland Sound to Nassau Sound aboard the “Kodak Moment” (22’ Pathfinder Powered with 200 hp Yamaha) with Capt. Allen Mills, you will know you have accomplished the Anglers Dream, whether on a Fly Rod or Ultra Light Tackle.
The oyster beds are the home of many fish: Redbass, Trout, Flounder and many more. The river system holds big game as well: Tarpon, Sharks, Cobia. You will find the best sight fishing on the grass flats for Tailing Reds, Sheepheads, and Drum on the spring tide.
Average size of the Redbass are 3 to 14 lbs; Trout range from 1 to 10 lbs; Tarpon range 30 to 200 lbs; and Sharks range 10 to 250 lbs (Blacktips, Dusky, Bonnethead).

Meet Capt. Allen Mills
Capt. Allen has an extensive fishing history from Fernandina Beach, FL down to Mexico and the Bahamas. For the last 42 years, he has been guiding at home (Amelia Island, Florida) from backcountry to blue water.
Capt. Allen loves sight cast fishing (whether it’s for Redfish in the Backwater, or Cobia offshore). With a fly rod or light tackle, the thrill of seeing the fish before you catch it is one of the best highs in life. Capt. Allen also holds a current World Record (held for 18 years!) for Bonnethead Shark (check out our Shark fishing tours).
