Captain Alex is a third-generation Clearwater native, and he's been fishing the Tampa Bay area for almost twenty years. Capt. Alex prides himself in offering fun and safe trips for his clients of all ages and skill levels, so whatever kind of fishing you're hoping to do, he's got you covered!
In addition, Captain Alex will have more than one recommendation on how to prepare your fresh catch—he's a trained chef who spent seven years working at Bon Appetite, a local hot spot for a good bite to eat! Get out there and set some hooks!

Alex is an awesome guide! Was on time and super fun to hang out with. But mostly importantly he absolutely put me on the fish! Will 100% book Alex again the next time I’m in Clearwater, and you should too if you want the chance to get hooked up with huge tarpon and monster snook!!! A+

Thanks, Jonathan! It was a great experience for me (although seasickness played a part in our trip!!) and my grandson. He definitely wants to do it again with you next year and we already booked our condo so we'll see you next year. By the way, we cooked some of the fish and let's just say, DELISH!! Thanks again, Terry & Max
