Explore some of the most productive waters off the coast of Florida with Top Knotch Fishing Charters! Captain Trae Sorensen is a fourth-generation captain in the Tampa Bay area who will show you all the best spots to get a hot bite.
You will be fishing aboard a 36’ Contender center console boat powered by triple 300 HP Suzuki outboard engines. With top of the line electronics on board as well as a huge livewell, you will be in a good position to tackle the monsters the Gulf of Mexico has to offer.
During your trip, you will be fishing with top quality gear and live bait provided by your captain. After a great day on the water, he’ll make sure to clean and fillet your catch, so that you can prepare a nice meal upon your return.
There’s a variety of species you can target – Hogfish, Grouper, Snapper, Amberjack, Shark, Mackerel, and Barracuda. Whether you want an intense battle with an Amberjack over the reefs and wrecks, or you would rather troll for Kingfish, Capt. Trae will walk you through the techniques necessary to land a big one.
Feel free to bring your kids on an amazing adventure, and spend some time with your family in these pristine waters. Make sure to bring some food and drinks to stay refreshed, as well as some sunscreen, and you’re all set!
