What types of redfish fishing charters are common in Florida?

Deep Sea fishing is the most popular type of fishing for redfish in Florida as well as inshore fishing, nearshore fishing, and flats fishing.

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

How much do Florida redfish fishing charters cost?

Prices for redfish in Florida can range anywhere from about $550 to $1,700, but the average price for a half day trip for redfish in Florida is $862. The average price for a full day trip for redfish in Florida is $1,165.

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.

What month is best for redfish fishing in Florida?

The most popular season for redfish fishing in Florida is spring, and most anglers book their trips 21 days in advance.

Do I need a Florida fishing license for redfish and what are the bag limits for redfish in Florida?

See here for more information on fishing licenses in Florida, bag limits for target species, and fishing season regulations in Florida. When in doubt, your fishing guide will always know the right rules and regulations in Florida.

    Believe all the good reviews Andrew has. We had such a great time in the Everglades catching sea trout, jacks, snapper, snook, a bull shark and a nurse shark. Couldn’t have been more pleased with this captain and deckhand. Very polite and prompt on getting you baited up and back in the water. If you are reading this review and wondering who to book a trip with, do not hesitate to book with Andrew.

    I had a great day in the Lower Keys with Capt. Robert. It was my first time salt-water fly fishing. He gave me lots of good advice. The fishing was excellent — and his knowledge of the area and technique is extensive. As a lady fisher, I appreciate some guidance on how to and Robert gave enough without over doing it. We landed five bonefish on a half day’s trip — and several were big! All gave a good fight. I missed several permit by being not fast on the draw but really stoked to have had a shot. Loved it!! I am already planning my next trip.

    Kenny was AMAZING! The fish weren’t biting but we had such a great time! Richard was unable to take us out due to a scheduling conflict but Kenny was there to take us out. He took us to several different spots and tried all the tricks but they just weren’t biting. Had the BEST time with him and would definitely book with Kenny again!

    Captain JT was awesome! Boat is super clean. Our day was very windy, so JT improvised and kept us close to the shore. Still caught a bunch of fish, even a couple big Red Fish. Kids had a blast. Would definitely recommend.

    Bert Weber I did not have Cameron as my guide due to a scheduling mix-up. I did have Josh as a fill-in and he did a fantastic job finding some nice redfish. Luckily, I had flexibility as far as my time and the afternoon trip worked out well. My original request was for a fly fishing experience...Josh informed that this was not a viable option due to water conditions. All considered...it was a good day of fishing and I would recommend Josh to anyone.

    Trip: Coastal Clearwater Charter

    Had an excellent morning catching multi-species of fish. First time ocean fishing with my four sons during spring break. 4 hour trip start to finish yielded a total of 40ish fish. Highly recommended. Capt Cory cleaned our catches right at the dock.

    Trip: Summerland Key Flats Action

  • ★★★★★
    Fishing was tough today with wind and a lack of current, but we managed to grab a few snook away from the hungry lemon sharks and some jack crevalle. Captain Nick was a great, easy-going quide, and I look forward to fishing with him again perhaps when Mother Nature is a little more accomodating!
