Experience world-class light tackle spin, fly or plug inshore sportfishing with 28 year veteran, Captain Wade Osborne. Catch snook, redfish, seatrout, cobia, sharks, mangrove snapper, Spanish mackerel, and more aboard Afishionado. Most charters are provided with spinning gear and live bait, but fly and bait casting tackle is available upon request.

When it comes to rods and reels, Osborne uses only the best. Premium brands such as G-Loomis, Bull Bay, Sage, Tibor, Van Staal, and Penn are included in the price. A Florida fishing licenses is provided for all passengers as well.

Fish in comfort aboard a custom built 24' Sheaffer boat with enough room for up to six anglers at any single time. There’s also a large fish box, cooler for beverages, and a fighting chair (available upon request) for the mobility impaired.

Kids of all ages are welcome, so Osborne encourages making lasting memories aboard Afishionado a family experience.

Few fishing guides provide Osborne’s level of customer service, and expert instruction to their clients. His 28 years of guiding full-time on Florida’s west coast has propelled him to be one of the top fishing guides in the Tampa Bay region.

Whether Osborne is guiding one or six anglers to some of the world’s best inshore fishing, you’ll never catch him fishing himself or sitting on his butt. That’s because he’s too busy chumming, rigging, baiting hooks, and releasing fish.

Osborne prides himself as being one the hardest working fishing guides in the industry. He remains on his feet tirelessly during your entire charter making sure you have the very best fishing experience available. Settle for nothing less!

Anglers are welcome to keep all legal species caught during their trip and Osborne gladly fillets them at no additional charge.

Note: Afishionado Guide Services also offers charters departing from Demens Landing in downtown St. Petersburg as well.
