About Your Trip

If you're looking to introduce the whole family to fishing and spice up your vacation here in Bradenton, FL, this trip with Captain Brook has your name on it! He loved guiding families on inshore fishing excursions, and this trip can accommodate everyone. With 3-hour and a 4-hour option, you can choose the length of trip that fits your schedule and keeps everyone entertained. Plus, this trip has a flexible start time, so please talk to the captain after booking!

On this trip, you'll explore the inshore waters off Bradenton, looking to hook up all kinds of fun sportfish, including Redfish, Spanish Mackerel, Sheepshead, Speckled Trout, and even small Sharks! These fish are a blast for kids to fight, and you'll be able to stick 'em up on a good day.

These family-friendly charters are aboard Captain Brook's Pursuit center console, which is an ideal boat for fishing here. Plus, with twin 250-HP Yamahas, she'll get you off the dock and out to where the fish are in a snap. Brook will provide everything you need for the trip, including fishing licenses, waters, ice, and cooler space if you’d like to bring your own snacks and drinks!

Book a trip and show the family how fun saltwater fishing can be!

Great time with Brooke. Showed us a lot of the area while we fished. Had to change days because of weather. That was no factor. Glad all fit in. He is very interested in teaching the youth to fish. He got stuck with 2 old farts that still had a good time m

I booked this trip for my sister and brother in law visiting from out of state. They caught a lot of fish and had a great time. We defiantly would use brook in the future.
