What types of snook fishing charters are common in Cedar Key?

Inshore fishing is the most popular type of fishing for snook in Cedar Key as well as flats fishing, nearshore fishing, and river fishing.

The most common fishing techniques in Cedar Key are light tackle fishing, live bait fishing, and artificial lure fishing but cut bait fishing and bottom fishing are popular as well.

How much do Cedar Key snook fishing charters cost?

Prices for snook in Cedar Key can range anywhere from about $500 to $1,345, but the average price for a half day trip for snook in Cedar Key is $697. The average price for a full day trip for snook in Cedar Key is $866.

Is booking a fishing guide worth the money?

Hiring a guide provides a number of benefits and many choose to book a fishing guide for a combination of experience, local knowledge, convenience, and cost-effectiveness.

Working with experienced fishing guides who know the best local spots and techniques can dramatically increase your odds of a great day. Having someone who is on the water every day and knows the area like the back of their hand is going to give you the best chances of success.

Booking a guide is also more cost effective, especially if you only get out a handful of times per year. When you consider all of the costs you would incur on your own such as the price of a boat, maintenance, insurance, gas, high-quality gear and tackle, repairs, and more, you’ll find that DIY is sometimes not worth the expense.

Even if you’ve got a great setup already in your home waters, booking a guide also provides a great opportunity to experience new techniques, new locations, or even a chance at a new target species to knock off the bucket list.

Do I need a Cedar Key fishing license for snook and what are the bag limits for snook in Cedar Key?

    We had 2 adults and 4 kids (2x11 and 2x16) and had a great day with Captain Teddy. We caught huge redfish and several black drum. He took us to a spot where we could pull a bunch of little guys up as well. The kids all rated it an A+.

    Although it was a slow day of fishing Captain Robbie worked his butt off to find us some speckled trout to eat and lady fish for fun. I highly recommend Captain Robbie to anyone who wants a guide with local knowledge of the area and knows where the best fishing spots are!

  • ★★★★★
    We really enjoyed our trip with Capt. Robert. The boat was well maintained and the rods were smooth. He was a pleasure to spend the day with and I would have no hesitation to recommend him to anyone looking for a guide. He was friendly, helpful, patient and knowledgeable about the local area and the how's and where's to put fish in the boat. My wife caught her pb trout on this trip and I almost broke mine. He started as our Captain and finished as our friend. When we come back down, there is no need to look for another Capt., we already found the best.

    My two sons and I fished with Capt. Kevin today and had a blast. Kevin worked hard to put us in fish. The day was a complete success. Caught everything from redfish to an 80lb shark with a few gag groupers a grunts in between. Don’t hesitate to fish with him. He knows the fishery and is helps that he’s a really nice guide…

    I’d give him a 100 stars if I could! He was fabulous! My husband and I are retired charter captains and we know the business well. Jason was great. We fished hard, he knew the area well and provided assistance when needed. We will definitely be chartering with him again. We highly recommend him to experienced and novice fishermen. He knew the right baits, had several rods rigged for different fish and different presentations for fishing. Could not ask for more!

    Trip: Inshore Fishing Charter

  • ★★★★★
    My wife booked a 3 person salt water fishing trip out of Tampa, Florida in Tampa Bay. Our Captain was John that day for 4 bours. The captain arrived early and we were on our way. He explained what we would be doing and gave us many pointers to increase our chanes of hooking up. Capt John was very friendly and knowledgeable about the fishing and the surrounding area. It was very hot that day with very little wind most captains probably would have called it a day but Capt John kept us out an extra 3 hours catching fish. He wanted us to have a great time which we did. We will be booking more trips with Capt John in the near future. I urge anyone who wishes to do some bay fishing to look up Capt John and book a trip and make some memories. Thanks to Capt John for going out of his way to make sure we had a good time.

    Trip: Tarpon Springs Special

  • ★★★★★
    The trip was perfect. Despite cold weather, Captain Kevin did everything to make sure the boys were catching fish, and they all did. He shared his knowledge about the local waterways and animals/fish, and the kids learned a lot. He was great with the kids! He was very patient and taught them a lot. We will definitely use Captain Experiences and Captain Kevin again when we return to Crystal River.
