About Your Trip

If you've been want to reel in some big fish on the calm inshore waters of Anna Maria Island, FL, then this trip is your ticket! Join Captain Taylor and chase classic Florida gamefish including Redfish, Snook, Snapper, and Trout on the flats and in the river channels of this rich fishery.
Each of these species is widely known as a terrific gamefish that fights hard and will really test your strength, skill, and stamina. You'll go after these fish using light tackle techniques, so bring your A-game—when one of these aggressive fish hits the line, you'll feel it! Captain Taylor is also full of expert tips and tricks to help you land that record fish, so whether you're a beginner or an advanced angler, you'll leave this trip a better fisherman than when you started.
On this trip, you'll be fishing from the deck of Captain Taylor's 24' Century center console. She's ideal for these inshore areas, with a relatively shallow draft and a 250-HP Suzuki engine so you can get on the fish in a hurry.

Captain Taylor provides everything you need for a stellar trip, including rods, reels, bait, and tackle. All you need to remember is proper clothing, sunscreen, and a pair of polarized sunglasses to spot fish. You can also bring a cooler with some drinks and snacks. Get ready to whack 'em!

We had the opportunity to take our four kids on their first fishing charter while visiting Sarasota. We booked with Ultimate Fishing Adventures and Henry was our guide. I don’t think we could have asked for a better experience. Henry was amazing with the kids. He put them on fish right away and our son landed a snook on the first cast. Henry even got us up close to some manatees which was so cool....
