Luck O' The Irish Fishing Charters
Half Day Trip – Back Bay (AM) on February 18, 20262 adults
I booked my fishing trip through Fishing Booker. I immediately received a text from Captain Richard. Great guy on the phone wuth a lot if enthusiasm! My Captain was Captain Frank, this Dude is on it! I had a buddy with me, Captain Frank was all over the boat making sure we had bait, fishing the right spot and fishing the correct method. we we're fishing for Sheephead, probably the most difficult fish to to catch I have ever experienced, they are known as a bait thief. These fish fight so hard I had to put the pole under my armpit to get leverage to land them on the boat. I landed 7 fish, doesn't sound like a lot but I was worn out after 4 hours. I ended up with about 8-10 pounds of filets. It was a Great trip and I 100% recommend Luck O' The Irish Fishing Charters! T Reddington, Indianapolis, Indiana

Half day - Back bay. Pm charter on April 6, 20262 adults2 children
Fishing SW Floridas back bays is always fun . But when you get a guide like Ken who’s ready to pull out all the stops sometimes you get” reel lucky “. Trying to make sure my grandson would get a casting lesson in with our trip ; he managed to lure up a 41/2 ‘ nurse shark. Great fun, memorable day on the water! And had our smaller catches grilled up for dinner at Bimini to boot. Thank you Ken ! For a “Lucky Day”!

We had the “Luck” on our side today!!!
Half Day Trip – Back Bay (AM) on February 19, 20262 adults
Had an amazing half-day inshore fishing trip on Luck of the Irish! Captain Kenny was outstanding — incredibly experienced and full engages the entire trip! He had us on sheepshead and snapper within 20 minutes of leaving the dock. The equipment was top-notch qnd the trip was very reasonably priced for the quality of the experience. If you’re looking for action, professionalism, and a captain who truly knows the water, LOTI charter is the one to book. Highly recommend!

Half day - Back bay. Pm charter on January 6, 20262 adults
My boyfriend and I went fishing with Kenny for a fun excursion while visiting Florida. We went in the morning around 8 AM and ended at noon. We caught so many different varieties of fish and had a wonderful time! Captain Kenny was so helpful and was always ready to help us with our bait or help us with any issues we ever had. He was so relaxed and made it a great chill time. We even were joined by two dolphins for around 20 minutes. It was such a cool fishing experience. Highly recommend!
