Choose the format before reserving

Byron advertises instruction for different experience levels and offers spinning, baitcasting and fly options. His freshwater trips target peacock bass, largemouth bass and snakehead, while the saltwater listings include bonefish, permit and other coastal fish.

Freshwater and saltwater are separate environments with different equipment and license requirements. Some longer listings describe exploring more than one type of water. Have Byron explain the actual route and format of the package you select; a land-based trip does not include a boat simply because the business also owns a skiff.

Freshwater fishing without an offshore ride

Four-hour guided freshwater outings are advertised from $400. Beginner and more experienced angler versions appear in the booking list. The service describes moving among local canals and lakes as conditions and fish activity change.

The bank-fishing description lists equipment and instruction, with options to use different kinds of tackle. Ask about walking distance, shade, seating and transport between locations. Those practical details matter for a family or anyone who needs an easier approach to the water.

Saltwater options and the skiff

The current trip overview lists a half-day backcountry sight-fishing outing from $550, a six-hour option from $650 and an eight-hour flats charter from $750. Some trips are offered on weekends or from Friday through Sunday, so check the dates shown in booking.

A trip description identifies an 18-foot skiff and up to three anglers. A separate equipment panel displays a different capacity figure, so confirm the passenger allowance for your chosen trip. Do not apply the shore outing's group arrangements to the boat.

What is supplied and what needs checking

Boat-trip descriptions list tackle, bait and water. The website also displays a license-purchase prompt. That does not establish identical license coverage for every freshwater and saltwater package, so ask exactly what your booking includes.

Wear clothing and footwear suited to the outing. A shore trip may involve wet or muddy ground, while a flats outing needs preparation for extended sun exposure. Bring personal food and drinks if desired and confirm cooler space with the guide.

Booking Byron's service

The reviewed pages provide online trip booking and a contact route, but did not clearly confirm a direct phone number or email address. Use the operator's own booking contact to discuss availability, party size and your preferred fish.

Black Point Park and Marina is listed as a meeting option, while trip descriptions explain that the best launch can change. Get the specific meeting point in your confirmation. Request the deposit, cancellation and weather conditions before purchase, and clarify whether the quoted amount covers the entire party or requires additional guest charges.

Details checked October 11, 2026, using the operator’s published information. Rates, boats, meeting points and policies can change; confirm the final trip details directly. Listed species describe possible targets, not a guaranteed catch or an open harvest season.
