About Your Trip

Get out on the calm, productive waters of Tampa Bay and Sarasota Bay for a hands-on inshore fishing trip built around staying mobile and targeting what’s biting. From shallow grass flats to mangrove shorelines and oyster bars, each trip is tailored to the season, conditions, and your goals for the day.

You’ll primarily be targeting redfish, snook, and speckled trout, with opportunities for flounder, pompano, mangrove snapper, sheepshead, Spanish mackerel, jack crevalle, and more depending on the time of year.

The Experience

These trips focus on light tackle fishing with live bait, offering a fun, active style of fishing that keeps you engaged throughout the day. Whether you’re new to fishing or have plenty of experience, the trip is adjusted to match your skill level.

Trips are available in 4, 6, and 8-hour options, with flexible start times to take advantage of the best bite—typically early morning or late afternoon.

Inshore waters here are calm and protected, making this a great option for families and younger anglers. You’re also never far from shore, with access to restrooms typically within 10–20 minutes if needed.

The Boat & Setup

You’ll be fishing aboard a 24’ center console designed for both comfort and performance. The boat features a T-top for shade, elevated spotting tower, GPS, fishfinder, trolling motor, and live bait wells—everything needed to stay on fish.

All rods, reels, tackle, and live bait are provided, along with bottled water and ice for your catch. Fish cleaning is included at the end of the trip, so you’ll leave with your catch filleted and ready to enjoy.

Good to Know

Fishing licenses are included, so all you need to do is show up ready to fish. You’re welcome to bring your own food and drinks (beer and canned beverages are fine—no glass).

Pickup is flexible, with multiple convenient launch locations around Bradenton and Anna Maria Island to make things easy.

Whether you’re chasing your first redfish or looking to dial in your inshore game, this trip offers a well-rounded and productive day on Florida’s Gulf Coast.
