Excited to cast a line in Homosassa? That's what CrackerBoyFishingCharters is here for! With Captain Trevor at the helm, you'll have a knowledgeable and well experienced guide.

Species like Redfish, Snook, Speckled Trout, Cobia, Tripletail, Gag Grouper, Tarpon, and more inhabit these waters if you come at the right time of year. On these trips, it's common to catch these fish on live or cut bait or jigs on light tackle.

Trips with CrackerBoyFishingCharters are child-friendly, so feel free to make a family day out of it! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise you should bring your own. Snacks are also a good idea to ward off any mid-trip fatigue!

You'll be welcome aboard a 20' Carolina Skiff with room for 4 passengers. It comes with everything you need for a productive day on the water. Capt. Trevor will provide rods and reels for you, along with lures. Live bait is included, but it's good to ask about this so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.

There's no need to buy a fishing license, so you can drive right over and come aboard without any hassle! Some fish have special regulations, including when you can keep them. Your captain will help you follow regulations while you fish.

Some essentials to bring are sunglasses, sunblock (non-spray), and bottled water. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but you should avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Your trip with CrackerBoyFishingCharters is just a click away, so why not make it happen?

    had a great time highly recommend

    3/4 Day Trip "4 PPL MAX" on July 14, 2026 • 2 adults

    My wife and I had an amazing time on this inshore fishing charter. From the moment we got on the boat, the captain made us feel welcome and treated us like old friends. He knew exactly where to go and worked hard all day to keep us on fish. What stood out most was how patient and helpful he was, always making sure we were having a good time and sharing his knowledge of the local waters. The boat was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped, and the entire trip was relaxed and enjoyable. We caught some great fish, made some great memories, and had a lot of laughs along the way. It was one of those trips we’ll be talking about for a long time. If you’re thinking about booking an inshore fishing trip, I highly recommend this charter. We can’t wait to come back and do it again!

    Awesome day of fishing on Nature Coast

    Half Day Trip (AM) "4 PPL MAX" on January 16, 2026

    We had an amazing day of fishing on the Nature Coast out of Homosassa! Captain Trevor was knowledgeable, patient and clearly loves what he does. He put us right on the fish and made sure everyone had a great time. The boat was clean and comfortable, and well maintained. We also loved seeing the dolphins and birds while out on the water. We caught plenty of fish and made some great memories. Highly recommend this charter if you're looking for a fun and memorable day of fishing and nature. Captain Trevor also recommend taking our fresh catch to The Shed at McRae's (next to the boat dock) where they cook up your fish and you have a whole meal to enjoy. Couldn't of asked for a better day!

    Great Day on the Water

    3/4 Day Trip "4 PPL MAX" on August 15, 2026 • 3 adults • 1 child

    We headed out of Homasassa in the afternoon and had a great time fishing. We caught 2 nice keeper Redfish and had several other on the line that unfortunately broke us off. Capt. Trevor was excellent and put us on fish on a day when the bite wasn’t really on fire. He also shared some great local knowledge for places to eat and things to see during our stay. I would highly recommend this charter to anyone!

    Awesome Day with Captain Trevor!

    3/4 Day Trip "4 PPL MAX" on May 8, 2026

    Started the day nearshore chasing cobia and doing some bottom fishing, then headed back inshore to finish the day strong. The redfish and snook bite was on fire, and we stayed hooked up the rest of the trip. Another awesome day on the water!

    Excellent day trip

    3/4 Day Trip "4 PPL MAX" on February 10, 2026

    Had a wonderful day with Captain Trevor! I wanted to learn how to fish with artificial bait and he was super patient and helpful teaching me. The boat was clean, had plenty of room to fish and the equipment seemed well maintained I caught several fish that he cleaned for me at the dock. It was a beautiful day and I highly recommend his services. Thank you Captain Trevor!

    January fishing trip

    Half Day Trip (AM) "4 PPL MAX" on January 10, 2026

    Hands down the best fishing charter we’ve been on. Captain Trevor was fantastic! He was patient, encouraging, and great with kids. He took the time to explain everything and made sure my son and I felt comfortable and it was a successful fishing trip! The boat was clean, the gear was top-notch, and the overall vibe was relaxed and fun. Such a memorable day on the water. We can’t wait to come back!

Great fishing trip !
3/4 Day Trip "4 PPL MAX" on July 6, 2026 • 4 adults

We were on fish at every stop! We could not keep some fish due to restrictions but caught fish which is a blessing in itself! The captain was very knowledgeable about the area and experienced! The trip is best for a small group of no more than four people. Its best to have water and sandwiches for a full day trips. Thanks Captain Trevor for a great day of fishing!

Thanks Richard for the awesome review glad y’all had a blast it definitely was a fun day enjoy your fish!!! 🤙🏻
