About Your Trip

Looking to spend a day on inshore calm waters and reel in some big fish? Join Captain Jimmy on the inshore flats near Bradenton, FL! These waters are full of massive Mangrove Snapper, Sheepshead, Spotted Seatrout, Snook, and Redfish just waiting to be caught. Captain Jimmy will lead you on the trip of a lifetime aboard his 26’ Donzi center console.

The vessel is powered by a 225HP Mercury engine, which will make for a fast and smooth ride through the glassy inshore waters. It comes equipped with a fighting chair to battle with the big ones and outriggers so you can troll with several lines. There is also a large icebox to store your catches, which Captain Jimmy will clean for you at the end of the voyage.

Besides Trolling, you will be Drift Fishing and Bottom Fishing on this trip. Captain Jimmy will guide you to the best holes and help hone your skills. He provides you with all the equipment you need including rods, reels, tackle, and bait. All you need to bring are drinks, snacks, and sun protection. This trip runs for either a half day or a full day but regardless, don’t let a nasty sunburn ruin your experience. With proper sunblock, polarized sunglasses, and a really cool hat, this trip will be a blast!

First Time Booking with Us?

Captain Experiences is home to 1,600+ quality, vetted fishing and hunting guides across the US and beyond. Our mission is to Unlock the Outdoors by making it quick and easy to book the trip of a lifetime every time with our Damn Good Guides.

We vet our guides and only partner with the best of the best. Our guides do their very best to keep you safe, show you a great time, and send you home with a memorable experience shared with family and friends.

Once you've paid your deposit at checkout, we'll send you a QR Code boarding pass. Just show your guide your boarding pass on the day of the trip, they'll scan it, the remaining balance will transfer automatically, and you'll be all set to get out there. Just make sure you bring a cash tip for the guide!

In the event of inclement weather, our guides will check the conditions and make the final call on whether its safe to go on the trip. If they decide the trip needs to be postponed, we'll work closely with you to reschedule or provide a credit for the full deposit, which can be applied to any of our trips in the US and beyond.

Each trip's price is determined by the guide and reflects all associated costs. A significant factor in pricing is often the type of boat and the corresponding fuel expenses. Additional costs may include leases, marina or slip fees, bait, and the expenses involved in providing and maintaining the necessary gear for your trip.

After booking your trip, we'll connect you directly with your guide to discuss additional details. In the meantime, our team is here to answer any questions via email, text, or phone.
