Beach Fishing Adventures Anna Maria
Beach Fishing Adventures Anna Maria
Beach Fishing Adventures invites you to discover the Gulf's world-class fishery in a totally new way by fishing from the beach (No Boat)! If you're eager for an exciting experience but don't want to travel miles to unpredictable waters, this is it. Guide Steven Herich will make sure you have a memorable fishing experience in Anna Maria.
With over 3 decades of experience, Capt. Steven has acquired vast experience and knowledge. He shares them with his guests to provide them with top-class on-the-beach adventures regardless of their age and skill levels. Thanks to his patience and teaching skills, you'll have a great time learning how to land a terrific catch as well as to catch live bait, use the tackle, and get a good grasp of the local fishery.
The spots you'll be fishing from include beaches, piers, the bay, and jetties. The guide will show you the best ways to reel in fish and help you experience the beauty of a hands-on approach. Put together his knowledge, expert techniques, and the rich fishery and you get the best chance for catching species such as Snook, Pompano, Redfish, Spotted Seatrout, Black Drum, and many more Floridian saltwater big-name species!
Sight fishing here is very popular, and targeting Snook is the epitome of sight fishing. Most of the time you can see the fish, and if you have the right guide/skills you'll be able to catch it
Things to keep in mind are that smoking and alcohol aren't allowed on the beach. Also, you can keep your catch but the guide encourages releasing in order to preserve the fishery. For keeping Snook, you'll need a $10 permit.
Coach Steve provides you with top-notch Penn gear, live bait, lures, and even filleting and bagging your catch. His gear is fully tailored for the hard-fighting Snook. That said, just remember to bring your fishing licenses for the day. The usual 15-20% gratuity for your guide's hard work would be highly appreciated!
Don't miss this opportunity to have a fishing day to remember

My boys and I had a great time with Captain Steve. Tropical Storm Bertha changed our plans twice, Capt Steve still put us on some fish. We caught snook, red snapper and a grouper along with a few other species. If I come back to AMI, we’ll definitely hook up again with Capt. Steve.
Hey Doug! Thanks so much for the great 5-Star review! It was a lot of fun fishing with you all despite the rough surf conditions instagated by Tropical Storm Bertha, so Plan B was executed. I always hope for ideal conditions for my client’s trips, but sometimes Mother Nature has other ideas. During this unsettled weather pattern, most captains were cancelling their trips, due to safety concerns/ poor fishing on a vessel, whereas, land-based charters (NO BOAT) can often circumnavigate that and still find fishable waters that are protected from wind, heavy surf, and rain. Nothing worse having your captain cancel on you last minute on your anticipated fishing trip saying were not going 😂. Thanks again for coming and look forward to fishing again on your next visit to AMI. Regards, Captain Steve Beach Fishing Adventures 🏖️🎣😃
Burazi approved!!! Capt Steve was a great guide. Very Knowledgeable about the local area. He was very helpful with my 9yo son who had his first fishing experience in FL. Needlefish, Sheephead, Flounder and Snook were caught on the trip!!!
Hi Doni! Thanks for the great review and really enjoyed showing you and your son the beach fishing scene. Often misunderstood, unless you’re a local that a boat isn’t your only option to catch fish around here. Thanks for your gracious generosity and hope to see you again soon! Regards, Captain Steve Beach Fishing Adventures 🏖️🎣😄
Amazing pier fishing experience. Just show up and Captain Steve has everything ready for you. So knowledgeable and amazing with kids. We caught so many fish and saw dolphins and manatee from pier in Longboat Key.
Hey Tracy! Thanks for another 5 Star review for your completed 2nd trip! You guys were an awesome group and appreciate you all! Definitely, lot’s of action and was exciting to have that black tip shark hitting our lure. Good times to say the least. Looking forward to our next adventure and thanks for the bait bucket too! Best regards, Captain Steve Beach Fishing Adventures 🏖️🎣😄
Captain was friendly, knowledgeable and fun! Great fishing time. Highly recommend th 3 hour session.
Hi Tracy! Thanks for the great 5 Star review! You guys were an awesome group and thanks for booking the 2nd trip during your stay. Lot’s of nonstop action and your kids did great pulling in a ton of fish. Also, thank you for your warm and generous spirit - it was most appreciated. Hope to see you all next year! Regards, Captain Steve 🏖️🎣😄
Captain Steven was very knowledgeable about the area and the fish!!! We caught a poisonous fish on the trip and I wouldn’t have known not to touch it with my bare hands without our guide. My husband Ben Benner caught an out of season Snook and released it! Very exciting to catch according to him! Luckily I provided him with a bait fish that i caught to aid in his success! Overall it was an amazing trip! I would highly recommend this adventure to anyone! Even if you only go two hours!!! Thank you Captain for being up to the trip! It was a pleasure to fish with you!!!
Hi Jamie! It was a pleasure fishing with you all and thanks for the 5 star review - most appreciated. Hope to see you again on your next trip to Sarasota! Tight lines from the beach 🏖️ Captain Steven Beach Fishing Adventures
