Sport Fishing, Bottom Fishing, Trolling, Shark Fishing, Tuna Fishing, and Sword Fishing. With over 35 years of expertise, we offer a experience that delivers an unforgettable blend of adrenaline, strength, and salty air.

Whether opting for a half or full-day experience, Our charters guarantee top-tier rods, reels, and tackle, along with clean, comfortable boats loaded with GPS and fish finders, to provide a smooth, enjoyable day. Choosing to fish with us means you’ll be in good hands with a very experienced and passionate deckhand. Our goal is to ensure we have a safe day charter fishing on the West Coast of Florida and that you are provided with everything you need to reel in the big ones!

The cobia are starting to move into the bay pretty thick! And they are eating white bait and pretty much any other baits if they are hungry enough! Trout bite continues to stay consistent with many gator trout and keeper's being put into boat! And they are eating shrimp, pinfish and white bait in the flats! The night time gag grouper bite has been no stop and they are eating anything we throw at them! To many to count and we are getting them in all depths in the bay and bridges. Mackerel bite has been on fire with xxl macs eating all the white baits we throw at them at any depths! Snook action at night time and day time has been super consistent and they are eating jigs and live bait! Catching them in flats and on bridges.
