Nearshore continues to be productive with a variety of Snapper including Hog Snapper and Inshore proves to be productive with quality Red Drum and Speckled Trout. Book a trip and also ask me about "catch and cook" at local restaurants after I properly filet and package your catch. 🎣

    Wow! What a truly fun time. Charlie had everything ready and waiting when we arrived. He was kind, helpful, and most importantly fun. We had a blast trying to catch fish…they were stupid stubborn though. But no worries. Charlie would just move us to another spot. We will be back to Siesta Key….and we will be booking another trip w Charlie.

    Captain Charlie wasn’t nothing short of amazing! First time I took my teenage son with me fishing in salt water and it was one filled with life long memories. Captain Charlie ensure my son and I were at ease, and he made us feel like long time friends. Highly recommend!

    Bill is an excellent captain and under his guidance my 8 year old son and I had a blast fishing. I was hoping for a relaxing first big water trip for my son and Bill delivered exactly that. All fishing and safety equipment was provided and we had great conversations. The only bad part of the trip was that it had to come to an end.
