About Your Trip

Get ready to head offshore and drop lines on some of the Gulf’s tastiest bottom-dwellers! This 8-hour Grouper Trip with Captain Robert out of Belleair is the perfect deep sea adventure for anglers looking to bend rods, fill the cooler, and have an unforgettable day on the water.

You’ll kick off the trip bright and early at 7:00 AM, hopping aboard a 36’ Cape Horn center console—a powerful, comfortable fishing machine rigged with triple Yamaha
engines pumping out 750 HP. With a smooth ride, room for up to 6 anglers, a private restroom, and space to relax between bites, this boat is built for serious offshore action without sacrificing comfort. It’s kid-friendly, too, so feel free to bring the whole crew!

This trip is all about bottom fishing with a mix of cut bait and live bait—all included and prepped by Captain Robert. With years of experience dialed into the deep structures, ledges, and reefs off Belleair, he’ll put you right on top of the fish. You’ll be targeting a mouthwatering mix of Red Grouper, Lane Snapper, and Vermillion Snapper—three hard-hitting, great-eating species that love to strike down deep.

Whether you’re a first-timer or a seasoned angler, Captain Robert’s got you covered with all the rods, reels, bait, and tackle you need. He’s all about doing his best to get everyone in on the action—and once the bite turns on, be ready for some steady reeling and plenty of photo ops. Want to enjoy the ride even more? Bring your favorite drinks and snacks, connect to the boat’s Bluetooth sound system, and enjoy a cold one (just no glass, please!) while the fish come calling.

So whether you’re after a limit of Grouper, a family day offshore, or just a salty getaway with good vibes and tight lines—this Grouper Trip checks every box.

Once you’re back at the dock, Captain Robert will clean and bag your catch, so you can bring home fresh fillets
