Aquaholic Charters is a family-owned, family-friendly company, offering a wide variety of fun trips for all types of anglers! Captain Brad is a Master licensed captain with years of experience fishing the local waters and is eager to share his knowledge with his guests.

This charter is very kid-friendly. The captain loves working with young anglers and seeing kids land their first catch, making this charter a great choice for families and first-timers.

You’ll spend your fishing trip aboard a 2018,  27’ Sea Hunt center console boat. The vessel has a max capacity of 6 guests, who are all able to fish together. For maximum comfort, however, the captain recommends groups of up to 4 guests. The vessel is new and very well-kept, providing anglers with a reliable and comfortable fishing platform. It’s powered by dual 200 HP Yamaha engines and features all the necessary equipment and a full toilet.

The charter will provide everything you’ll need to fish including top-notch Canyon and Fin-Nor tackle and any bait that’s required to go after your target. Also included in the price is your fishing license and catch cleaning so all you need to focus on is catching fish.

Aquaholic Charters’ trips will typically take you about 10 miles offshore and it normally takes the captain 30 minutes to reach a good spot. No minimum age for children, but for infants’ parents should bring their own life vests. All trips will have a first mate to help you with anything you need throughout the day. Gratuity is appreciated.

You’ll also be provided with water and light snacks, but you’re welcome to bring any other food and drinks you’d like to have on board. The captain has plenty of cold storage for food and drinks. Also remember to bring your sunglasses, sunscreen, and dress for the weather.

Now check the captain’s calendar for an opening that works for you, find a trip that suits you, and start planning your next fishing adventure today!

Birthday Trip

We are out of state and my fiance has always wanted to go out on a charter. I searched thru many charters and none grabbed my attention until I ran across this one. When I tried to book the trip it said it had to be approved because the trips were all booked but I tried anyway. I listed my reasoning for wanting the trip and in less than 10 min it was confirmed, we were accepted! I tried so hard to keep it a secret but that didn't last very long! When we got there EVERYTHING was ready, all we had to do was enjoy! My daughter, a teenager, of course wasn't interested at all but captain Brad was determined to make her smile before we were done! We got to our 1st spot and captain Brad tested the waters and of course hooked one! He gave the pole to my fiance and he brought in his 1st fish! He got the rest of us ready and within seconds we all had one! Guess wat, my daughter was smiling!! After that the fish just kept biting! We moved to several places just to try to see what all we could catch. We even did some dolphin viewing. We caught what we needed for supper and even some to take home. Captain Brad did all the cleaning, all we had to do was watch. We all had an AMAZING time and will be doing it again! I can honestly say, this was my fiances BEST BIRTHDAY all thanks to this wonderful trip! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this trip for ANYONE especially first timers that want to have a great time!

Great day on the gulf.

VERIFIED

Had a great trip with Cap. Brad. I would highly recommend Capt Brad having used him several times. My wife and oldest daughter plus 2 grandchildren had a wonderful time. Brad is extremely knowledgeable in gulf fishing will have you on the fish in no time. It helps with the twin 200hp evenrudes pushing you along.

Half day fishing and exploration trip

VERIFIED

We booked a half day eco tour to start, as we have a 10 year old girl who wants to save the world, and a 6 year old boy who wants to catch it! Captain Brad managed to give them both a great day with a couple of hours fishing and then some adventure exploring! We caught enough snapper for dinner, and went to a great site for some swimming. He even cleaned all our fish so it was easy to cook up in a hotel kitchenette. Will definitely rebook when we come down next!!
