About Your Trip

Get out on the beautiful waters near Holmes Beach, FL, and haul in an incredible catch with Captain Jimmy! You can search out a range of species on this trip, including Amberjack, Cobia, Gag Grouper, Barracuda, Kingfish, and Jack Crevalle. This trip is an incredible opportunity to explore the bountiful fishing grounds in the Gulf of Mexico and should be a blast!

You'll go after these fish using a variety of techniques including Trolling, Bottom Fishing, and Drift Fishing. Captain Jimmy is an experienced guide who is more than happy to help you hone your skills, so get ready for an experience unlike any other. Whether you're already a confident fisherman, or still learning your knots, this trip is a great opportunity to catch a personal best!

Aboard Captain Jimmy's 26’ Donzi center console, you will be provided with everything you need for a great day. As the 225hp Mercury engine fires up, you can sit back in the fighting chair and enjoy the ride. Keep your rods in the outriggers as you troll along, and store your catch in the icebox so it stays fresh for a delicious dinner. Your captain will bring the rods, reels, bait, and tackle, so all you need with you are snacks, drinks, and a smile!

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.
