Go snorkeling, swimming, island hopping, sightseeing, and enjoy the sunset at the end of the day. Needless to say, you don’t need to be an experienced angler to join. On this boat, everybody’s welcome and everybody has fun!

It all starts on a 26’ Grand Island pontoon that accommodates up to 6 guests. With lots of cozy seating space, both in the shade and under the sun, everybody will have their spot to chill. But the center of attention is always on the water slide that throws you right into the sea. The boat also has a portable toilet and a cooler for your drinks.

You’ll be fishing inshore, targeting species like Spanish Mackerel, Barracuda, Mangrove Snapper, Grunter, Shark, and more. You’ll use light tackle and spinning, which are great techniques for beginners. You get to keep the catch at the end of the trip and the crew will clean it free of charge. If you enjoy a tasty fish meal, don’t forget to bring a cooler for your fillets.

All fishing equipment, licenses, bottled water, and snacks are included in the price. Feel free to bring anything you need and don’t forget your sun protection. Please don’t bring glass bottles and spray sunscreen.

Captian Gregory Fabrizzi has been fishing his entire life. He's a New Jersey native who has been exploring the waters of the Florida Keys for the past 10 years, during the winter months. It's safe to say that he knows these waters like the back of his hand! He started his charter operation in New Jersey, but relocated to Florida due to the incredible and diverse fishery that is on offer. Captain Gregory is a proud father of three children and spends as much time as possible with his wife and children, both on and off the water. Whether you're a seasoned fisherman looking to reel in your trophy catch or want to take your family on a truly memorable vacation, Captain Gregory and his crew warmly welcome you on board. Manic Sportfishing is available for tournaments and has a proven track record of tournament winnings.
