Kids of all ages are welcome; Capt. Wade 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. Captain Wade Osborne strives to make every fishing adventure an enjoyable experience.

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 Tampa Bay. 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. He’ll even recommend a restaurant that will cook your catch.

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