About Your Trip

Experience an unforgettable inshore fishing adventure with Brad and his team, who bring years of expertise navigating the waters and uncovering the best fishing spots. Whether you're chasing Snook, Speckled Trout, Mangrove Snapper, or seasonal species like Redfish, Bonnethead Shark, and Spanish Mackerel, this trip promises excitement for anglers of all levels.

Step aboard the 19’ Glasstream center console, a well-equipped fishing machine that accommodates up to four passengers. It’s designed for comfort, featuring an onboard toilet for convenience, and comes ready with high-quality rods, reels, lures, and live bait. Your fishing license is covered, so you can focus on the thrill of the catch. Depending on the season and conditions, you’ll explore various fishing techniques, from spinning and jigging to bottom fishing.

This charter is perfect for families, and children are more than welcome to join the fun. Be sure to check with the captain about life vest sizes for younger passengers, and pack plenty of snacks to keep everyone energized. For the adults, moderate alcohol consumption is allowed, but leave the hard liquor and glass bottles at home.

To make the most of your adventure, bring sunscreen (non-spray), sunglasses, and bottled water. Brad and his team are dedicated to making your day on the water memorable, with options to keep your catch and have it cleaned and filleted for you. If you're looking to explore, snorkeling equipment is also available to add another layer of excitement to your trip.

Whether you're an experienced angler or simply looking for a day of family fun, this inshore fishing charter offers the perfect blend of expertise, adventure, and relaxation.

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.
