Bradenton Beach Weather Forecast
Fishing reports straight from our guides in Bradenton Beach
We’ve been putting some serious fish on deck lately — cobia, mangrove snapper, gag grouper, and red grouper have all been chewing.
We’re mixing it up and staying on the bite, using live bait, cut bait, shrimp, and throwing jigs, depending on what the fish want. And it hasn’t mattered whether we’re fishing daytime or after dark — the action has been steady.

Fishing the beautiful waters of key west
It's always an experience getting down here to key west to do some fishing and diving, and this year has not disappointed. I would have to say the theme is less people more lobsters. We are into our regular lobster season now catching our limit. Every single day conditions have been so beautiful.
We ran out to 1860 feet of water this past Tuesday landed right in a school of beautiful mahi. After we had our way with them trolling, we busted out the top water plugs and we're catching 10 to 15...

We ran out to 1860 feet of water this past Tuesday landed right in a school of beautiful mahi. After we had our way with them trolling, we busted out the top water plugs and we're catching 10 to 15 pound fish on topwater.
The following day we decided to get into some 1000 foot deep bottom fishing. The golden tiles were on it along with some beautiful snowy grouper.
We're going to be here for a few more weeks so come see what this beautiful paradise has got to offer. The water is so clear if you look, you're going to see something beautiful.
Get your trips booked with Captain Experiences and we will definitely bow some RODZ and get you underwater for a amazing experience tight lines for now Captain Phil

Bite is getting very good. All this rain has dropped the water temperature significantly and has made both Instead and nearshore fishing start to fire off. Big snook, redfish and tarpon inshore. Cobia, flounder, snapper and grouper nearshore
