About Your Trip
Explore the Gulf with Captain Alex aboard a 30’ Wellcraft Fishing Machine!
Get ready for an unforgettable day on the water with Captain Alex as you hop aboard a fully equipped 2024 Wellcraft 30ft Center Console and head out into the rich, fish-filled waters of the Gulf of Mexico. Whether you're a seasoned angler or new to fishing, this trip offers the perfect mix of comfort, adventure, and big-time action just a few miles offshore
from Venice, Florida.
ou’ll target a wide range of prized species including Gag and Red Grouper, Mangrove, Yellowtail, Lane, and Mutton Snapper, plus Kingfish, Amberjack, Cobia, African Pompano, and more. Whether you're bottom fishing over wrecks and reefs or trolling along the nearshore, every moment is packed with the potential for an epic catch.
These 4- to 6-hour trips run just 5 to 10 miles off the Venice Inlet, making them ideal for families, groups of friends, or anyone looking for high-quality fishing without a long ride. Evening trips offer the added bonus of chasing the sunset bite while soaking in breathtaking views as the sun dips below the horizon.
Captain Alex offers a variety of fishing techniques to match the conditions and your experience level, including bottom fishing, trolling, jigging, spinning, and light tackle. Heavy tackle is available for battling those hard-fighting reef fish, and live bait is included—or you can even fish for it on the way out.
Your boat is more than ready for the task, outfitted with top-tier features like GPS, Fishfinder, radar, a wireless trolling motor, and a live bait well. There’s also a clean electric-flush toilet for your convenience, a refrigerator to keep drinks and snacks fresh, an ice box for your catch, and a multimedia system to keep the good vibes going throughout the trip.
Captain Alex provides everything you need for a successful day on the water, including all rods, reels, tackle, and lures. Fishing licenses for all passengers are covered, and your catch will be cleaned and filleted at the end of the trip—just don’t forget to tip the crew!
