About Your Trip

Welcome to Clearwater, Florida—the perfect place for a fishing adventure! Join Captain Alex onboard his 22' Pathfinder bay boat and get ready to experience some of the best fishing the area has to offer.

As you set out on the sparkling waters of the Gulf of Mexico, you'll be surrounded by breathtaking views and the sound of waves gently lapping against the boat. Keep an eye out for dolphins and manatees, as they are often spotted in these waters.

With Captain Alex's expert guidance, you'll be fishing for a variety of gamefish species, including Gag Grouper, Hogfish, Jack Crevalle, Sheepshead, and Mangrove Snapper. These gamefish are known for their fighting spirit and delicious flavor, making them a thrill to catch and a treat to eat!

As you cast your line, you'll feel the excitement of the hunt and the rush of anticipation as you wait for a bite. When you finally feel that tug on the line, it's time to land in your catch and enjoy the thrill of the fight. Whether you're an experienced angler or a first-time fisherman, Captain Alex will make sure you have a memorable and enjoyable experience.

Thanks, Jonathan! It was a great experience for me (although seasickness played a part in our trip!!) and my grandson. He definitely wants to do it again with you next year and we already booked our condo so we'll see you next year. By the way, we cooked some of the fish and let's just say, DELISH!! Thanks again, Terry & Max
