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, scalloping, or diving, 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 6 guests. It runs on a 200 HP Yamaha engine and uses GPS, fishfinder, and radio navigation technology. It also features a wireless trolling motor and a livewell. To ensure a great but safe day out on the water, the crew maintains the vessel in tip-top shape.

During the summer, as the fishing is still superb, the crew will turn its focus towards scallop trips. They are especially great for families and provide an awesome time for kids. Have a large group? No worries. The crew can accommodate any group of any size. In the fall and winter months, fishing in the bay, inshore, nearshore, 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 Snapper, Grouper, Grunt, Snook, Cobia, Sheepshead, and much much more. You can catch them in many ways, from bottom fishing to spinning to drift fishing and trolling plugs and many more. You are free to keep your catch as well as to bring kids on your trip.

Captain Jimmy will provide all the fishing gear, bait, ice, and required licenses and permits. You should bring your own diving, scalloping, and snorkeling gear but the crew can set you up with all the gear you need too.

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.
