We have been fishing and hunting w Captain Shawn for over 6 years now. Every time has been amazing. This past Thanksgiving we chartered him for a half day with my son and niece. He put us right on the fish and was very accommodating to our needs. Everyone had a great time - and caught a bunch of trout and mackerel! I highly recommend Cap Shawn/Salt River for all your inshore, hunting and/scalloping adventures in Crystal River.
