About Your Trip

If you’re looking for fish, friends, and family fun, you have picked the ultimate experience, with all three to be found in abundance on one fine fishing boat!

Captain Roy was born and raised in the Tampa Bay area and has spent most of his life on the waters of West Central Florida. As a third-generation native Captain, Roy grew up fishing with his father, grandfather, and brother, learning to truly appreciate the wonderful fishing of the Tampa Bay area’s Gulf Coast. He has devoted his career to sharing the ultimate fishing experience with you and your favorite fishing gang. Captain Roy can provide a fun day of family fishing as well as personal fishing guidance for the more serious angler.

You will fish aboard his 22’ Skeeter powered by a 250 HP Yamaha engine. Captain Roy provides Eupro rods, Penn reels, and Spiderwire fishing line. You are also welcome to bring your own fly fishing equipment.

While fishing inshore you can target a variety of species. Depending on the season you might reel in Redfish, Snook, Jack Crevalle, Cobia, Sharks, and more.

Without friends, fishing isn’t as much fun, and you will always find plenty of both friendship and fish when you fish with Captain Roy. A fishing license is provided for you and Captain Roy will clean and fillet any fish you’d like to bring home

The trip I had with Captain Roy was amazing! Being from out of town he was very helpful because I'm used to fishing for pan fish and fishing in Florida is a little different then that. My buddy, his 6 year old son, and I all had a lot of laughs and caught some fish. Caught my biggest fish and got to see a dolphin swimming around our boat. I'll definitely be planning on another...

My wife and i had a fantastic time with Captain Roy. He took us to an amazing fishing spot where we kept pulling up spotted sea bass. The spot was also very beatiful where we saw dolphins and even a manitee swimming around. I will surely do this again on my next trip.

Not sure why we didn’t have our original captain as I selected on the web site.

I would not recommend a trip through your services ever again. Very unprofessional operation and glad to provide the crappy feedback.
