About Smitty's Surf Fishing | Navarre’s Only Florida Friendly Fishing Guide

---

 Welcome to Smitty’s Surf Fishing—Navarre’s only Certified Florida Friendly Fishing Guide. As a Florida Friendly Fishing Guide, I’m committed to protecting our fisheries while providing unforgettable surf and inshore fishing adventures along Florida’s Emerald Coast. Whether you want to cast from the sand or explore the bay by boat, I’m here to make your day fun, relaxing, educational, and full of fish. 

 Hi, I’m Smitty—owner, guide, and lifelong fisherman. After retiring from the Air Force, I followed my passion to the water, helping locals and visitors experience the excitement of surf and inshore fishing along Navarre’s beaches and bays. I’ve spent years learning these waters and love sharing what I know. Whether you’ve never held a rod or want to level up your skills, I’ll guide you every step of the way with patience, humor, and local know-how. My trips aren’t just about catching fish—they’re about creating memories, learning something new, and enjoying Florida’s beautiful outdoors. 

Most guides focus on either surf or inshore fishing - but I believe both offer something special. That’s why I give you the option to fish from the sand or explore the bay with me by boat.

✅ Want to experience the thrill of landing a pompano or redfish from the beach? I’ve got you covered.
✅ Want to chase speckled trout, snapper, or sharks in the bay? Let’s hop aboard and find them.

Many guests choose one; some try both. Either way, you’ll get a hands-on, educational, family-friendly adventure tailored to your skill level and interests.
