Testimonials

My wife and I have been fishing with Kyle out of Crystal River and Homosassa for several years. Besides always putting us on the fish, his outgoing personality and patience make fishing with Capt. Kyle a real pleasure. We would highly recommend him to anybody interested in fishing the Nature Coast.

– Jim and Marsha Phelps, Dunnellon, FL

If you want to learn the joys of fly fishing or you are already converted, Kyle’s experience and knowledge will still impress even the most skillful. The variety and number of fish in the area is quite surprising. If you want numbers then 20 to 30 fish a day is reasonable. If trophy fish is your goal Kyle can put you on them.

– Jinchang Sun, China

I have hunted and fished from Alaska to New Zealand and places in between, Captain Kyle is without a doubt the best fishing guide I have ever been with. We had an exceptional day on the water and this is due to Captain Kyles, knowledge of the waters, fishing tactics and willingness to teach the skills necessary to catch the fish.

– Rey Fortney, Boston, MA

Another Great day on the water with Captain Kyle. We spent the morning fishing as Kyle does not disappoint. He had us on fish all morning and we managed to landed numerous Redfish and Trout all before our afternoon of scalloping. Our afternoon of snorkeling for scallops was equally as successful and we all had a blast. We highly recommend him and will return to fish and scallop with him again in the near future.

– Peter Hough, Charlotte, NC

I cannot recommend Captain Kyle Messier enough. He is extremely pleasant and patient but most importantly he knows where to find the fish!! My family and I had an excellent time fishing with him, and catching 10 different varieties of fish (I actually lost count of the total numbers of fish caught) was a blast. If you want to fish in the Crystal River area, Captain Kyle is the guide for you.
