What types of whiting fishing charters are common in Florida?

Inshore fishing is the most popular type of fishing for whiting in Florida as well as flats fishing, nearshore fishing, and jetty fishing.

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

How much do Florida whiting fishing charters cost?

Prices for whiting in Florida can range anywhere from about $375 to $803, but the average price for a half day trip for whiting in Florida is $517. The average price for a full day trip for whiting in Florida is $719.

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 whiting fishing in Florida?

The most popular season for whiting fishing in Florida is spring, and most anglers book their trips 7 days in advance.

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

    Capt Matt put us on the fish and we smashed it. Thanks Capt!

    Max was a great guide. Made the trip fun and was friendly and knowledgable. We’d fish with Max again.

    We were looking for a different kind of fishing trip and found it - we loved the surf fishing experience with Capt Max! He is a professional in every sense - he reached out to ensure we knew what to expect and where to meet. The beach location was easy to find & park and he had chairs & water waiting for us. Capt Max is very personable - loved hearing his story! The surf was very rough so we didn’t have high expectations, but Capt Max worked hard to find fish! We caught three nice pompano which he cleaned for us on the beach (they were delicious by the way!). Plus, we were treated to a beautiful sunset! What’s not to love?! No early morning, no bouncing around on a boat, spending time on the beach, great sunset, and a tasty dinner - perfect start to a beach vacay! Can’t wait to do it again and a big thank you to Capt Max!

    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!

    What a great Captain! Great boat! Easy going and just what we wanted! Can't say enough about a Captain that puts you on a 26 inch trout!! Can you say gator! Thanks for a great day!

    Bill M. with Robert D. of Tarpon Springs, Florida

  • ★★★★★
    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.

    Bill M. with Robert D. of Tarpon Springs, Florida

    We slayed em. Had our limit in trout plus one pompano in an hour. Sport fished for the rest of the time and caught about 50 more large trout. Great trip!!!

    Super cool and nice had a great time.

    Danyel M. with Robert D. of Tarpon Springs, Florida

  • ★★★★★
    With a huge storm the day before and winds still keeping most boats off the water we did very well. 12 fish total with 2 being sharks. One fish we caught was bit in half! Great day on the beach! Learned so many new skills as well and Kathy is too notch at sharing her techniques and working diligently to keep all three of us busey with four rods. You won't find that from a boat. Honestly with four poles soaking, most double rigs totaling 7-8 baits in the water at all times seems much more productive than one rod per angler getting snagged on a reef or baits getting stripped. Being an avid angler myself I'm very impressed with my first time surf fishing under post cold front conditions when many fish get finiky and tuff to commit to feed. Thank you Kathy!!! I'll be back!
