Extreme Fishing Habit Charters and Tours operates out of Homosassa, Florida, a true fisherman’s paradise both inshore as well as offshore. Its remarkable bay with crystal clear waters and fish-rich rocks and reefs basically make the area God’s own aquarium. Whether you are fishing or diving, USCG Captain Jimmy Lee and his crew will give you the best experience on or in the waters!

You will fish aboard a 21’ Tidewater center console that can fit 4 guests. It runs on a 200 HP Yamaha engine and uses GPS, fishfinder, and radio navigation technology. It also features an iPilot wireless trolling motor for steady anchoring and a livewell. To ensure a great but safe day out on the water, the crew maintains the vessel in tip-top shape.

In the fall and winter months, fishing in the bay, inshore, nearshore, river as well as offshore soars and remains excellent into the spring. Even more spectacular is the migration of manatees and other sea life into the local springs.

The species you can chase include Mangrove Snapper, Spanish Mackerel, Gag Grouper, Red Grouper, Key West White Grunts, Snook, Cobia, Redfish, Speckled Trout, Sheepshead, Trigger Fish and much much more. You can catch them in many ways, from bottom fishing to float fishing to spinning to drift fishing and trolling plugs and many more. You are free to keep your catch and we clean, filet and bag your catch free if charge. Our trips are family friendly so feel free to bring the kids along too.

We will provide all the fishing gear, bait, ice, and required licenses and permits.

We had blast!!
7 Hour Trip – Offshore 3 Guests Max on December 28, 2024 • 3 adults

Booked with Captain Jimmy and Captain Bob fairly short notice. Communication was excellent we were in contact via text several times before the trip and Jimmy kept us updated regarding the weather (we booked offshore) . Boat and Equipment were spotless and in tip top shape and it was the perfect boat for our offshore trip. Jimmy and Bob have great fishing locations, we kept over 50 fish. Live shrimp and premium Ballyhoo was provided as bait plus lots of dead shrimp etc for chum. Jimmy put us onto and taught us the intricacies of catching snapper and …. It worked. Both the charter and Homosassa as a base highly recommended!!

Captain Jimmy was raised around boats and the water and has basically been fishing all his life. He has always had a love and desire to take family, friends, and guests fishing. For him, the best fishing trips ever are the ones with kids aboard and there is nothing more rewarding for the captain than to see a kid's face light once they hook up with the big one on the other end of their line.
