Bass N Bay Charters is here to take you on a light tackle adventure in the Anna Maria Island, Bradenton, and Tampa Bay. Join Captain Brady Nelson,Florida native, who's been fishing these waters for over 45 years. He caters to hundreds of guests each year and now is the time to meet you onboard! Join regardless of your fishing (in)experience and catch a fish of a lifetime!
You'll be fishing on a 25' custom boat that accommodates up to 5 guests. This center console is powered by a 300 HP Yamaha engine, has all the latest fishing and safety equipment on board, and is capable of long runs in choppy seas or will float very quietly in less than 10' on the flats.
There's a variety of fishing trips to choose from and it all depends on what fish you want to catch or which environment you prefer - from nearshore saltwater fishing, inshore bay area, or freshwater spots where you can go after Largemouth Bass. You can always count on Capt. Brady giving his best to put you on the fish of your dreams and teaching you all the tricks he knows.
The trips are family friendly and perfect for first-timers. All fishing equipment is included in the price, as well as your licenses. After the trip, Capt. Brady will clean and fillet your catch free of charge. All you need to bring is some snacks, drinks, and sun protection.
Bass N Bay Charters welcome you and your loved ones aboard. Join for a day of fun, relaxation, and good vibes.

we started on fish the entire trip, and Kasey couldn’t have been nicer or more accommodating
You will not find a better Captain. He is knowledgeable, funny, and honest. He put us on the snapper first thing. When we moved on we were nailing the red grouper. On the way back we even stopped for a dolphin tour. Skip the Posiden fishing charters if you can even call them that. Go Captain Brady 100%

Thanks trenton, i'm glad your group had a good time. I want people to be comfortable on my charters and have a great time. And I enjoy putting people on good fish. Thanks again.
Best fishing experience I’ve ever had

Excellent day on the water with Brady. Good fishing, really helpful and good banter with my boys. Enjoyed it all around, excellent experience!

Thanks Tom I always enjoy teaching kids how to fish. Good to see them excited About fishing as they are.

I grew up fishing grew up fishing with my Dad and my grandfather. Started tournament fishing at a young age and it took off from there. Fishing is a passion of mine and a way of living!
