The Skiff
18' Ankona shadowcast
Simply a great preforming, hand-built skiff equipped with comfortable seating & backrest, storage, Yeti cooler & large casting deck with lean bar. The Shadowcast — with it’s extremely shallow draft & quiet hull — is the ideal boat for fishing the ultra shallow backcountry creeks & flats here in Northeast Florida. It offers a good ride in a chop with the forward "V" entry at the bow. It's surprisingly stable, quiet, spins on a dime and most importantly, offers world class poling performance. Poling the boat is where Capt. Tim will stand on the poling platform on the back of the boat and push the boat through the water using a push pole, which allows us to get up close to fish in the skinniest of shallows others can only dream about.

Grab bar on front casting deck is available for anglers with balance issues & for windier, rougher days when there’s some chop on the water.
