About Your Trip

Located in Port Richey and offers to show you a memorable time in these waters.

Capt. Dustin will do his best to make sure you have a fun day full of fishing. This involves 6 to 12-hour trips, mainly fishing for Grouper, Hogfish, Snapper, King Mackerel, Amberjack, and Triggerfish, depending on the season and conditions on the day. On these trips, you can expect to use techniques such as heavy tackle, bottom fishing, big game fishing, drift fishing, jigging, and spinning.

Your fishing adventure starts on a 28’ ProSport boat that can safely take up to 5 anglers. This boat comes with an ice-box.

All rods, reels, and terminal tackle are included in the price so you can focus on what really matters, fishing. Your trip will include all the necessary fishing licenses for the day. The crew will clean and fillet your catch for you to take home at the end of the trip.

About Your Guide

Dustin B.

Independent Guide

Captain Dustin is a New Port Richey native who has been navigating this area since he could drive.

I work hard to provide my clients with the type of experience that they're after. Whether it is a family day on the water targeting quantity or chasing trophy fish with experienced anglers.

I am a staunch supporter of conservation efforts and takes every precaution to safely release fish and ensure a viable fishery for years to come.

I was one of the pioneers of hook-and-line hogfish fishing and am one of the premiere Captains on the Gulf Coast at catching them in state waters.

Outside of guiding, my family is the most important thing to me.

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.

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.

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.
