Join Fishy Business on an unforgettable journey and capture the true essence of inshore and nearshore fishing with Captain Rick Gross. You can count on your guide to hook you up with some pretty impressive fish, while you enjoy a relaxing day coasting through the unspoiled waterways and flats of Bradenton, Florida.

Your trip will take place aboard the captain’s Dorado center console, powered by a 250 HP Yamaha engine. It comes with navigational equipment, a wireless trolling motor, and safety gear. It fits up to 4 people comfortably, allowing all guests to fish at the same time, and kids of all ages are welcome aboard.

Captain Rick will take you through backcountry flats and secluded coastal waters to battle some hard-fighting, shallow-water species such as Tarpon, Redfish, Snook, and Cobia. You’ll also have an opportunity to bottom fish over a few beautiful underwater structures along the Gulf Coast. Here you’ll be targeting bottom-dwellers like Gag Grouper and Mangrove Snapper. Depending on the season, you might also encounter Permit, King and Spanish Mackerel, Sheepshead, and more!

State-of-the-art Shimano, Daiwa, Penn, and custom Bull Bay rods are available on each trip. Live bait will also be prepared for you prior to departure. Capt. Rick will take care of your fishing license for you as well, so you can just relax and focus on fishing! You can also have your catch clean and filleted so it’s ready to be thrown on the grill once you get home.

Luckily, Bradenton is an all-year-round destination for fishing, so your choices are endless. Capt. Rick will make sure to put you on to some awesome fish while showing you a great time out on the water. Book your fishing trip today, and expect the unexpected with Fishy Business!

Had a great morning catching snook after snook! Capt. Rick put us on a lot of fish and was extremely knowledgeable, helping us with anything we needed. It was an excellent experience that I would recommend and will definitely be doing again soon myself!
