Capt Chris's Fishing Adventures run angling trips and offer to show you what the local fishery is all about.

Capt. Chris is here to get you on some fish, and to make sure you have fun doing it. As part of their 2 to 6-hour trips, you can target species like Snapper, Redfish, Tarpon, Snook, Spotted Seatrout, and Sheepshead, depending on the current season and weather conditions.

You'll be fishing from a 24' Skeeter bay boat with enough room for up to 6 passengers at any single time. It also includes an ice box and wireless trolling motor. All rods, reels, and terminal tackle are included in the price so you can focus on what really matters, fishing. The captain will supply all the needed fishing licenses for your trip.

Here to help you with anything you need, the first mate will be on hand during the trip. Leaving a tip for a job well done is much appreciated.

You'll find cold waters on the boat for your convenience, but you're always welcome to pack your own drinks and snacks should you want to. Children are welcome aboard so you're good to get the young ones started early.

Best Florida Fishing Experience!
Half Day Trip on January 3, 20252 adults

Captain Chris met us on time and he was ready to go! The weather was much different than what was forecasted and Chris had a plan. He made sure we stayed out of the wind and in short time he had us on the fish. The cold front was upon us, and the bite was tough but in short time we hit the Trout and it kept on moving from there! Inside an hour of our first fish I was on my way to the SLAM! In fact, it’s safe to say we doubled it! This was the absolute best time on the water and I will be going back!

Reported catch:
Speckled Trout
Redfish
Snook

A great time had by all.
3 Hour Trip on March 28, 20244 adults

We booked last minute and with minimal flexibility in our schedule. He communicated with us immediately after booking and asked if we could go on a different day when the conditions were better. We couldn’t , so we agreed to give it a chance and see how it went. The weather was not cooperating at all for our 8 AM departure, pouring rain on the way there and for almost an hour. Captain Chris was great about waiting out the storm and still getting us out on the water. It was super windy, but he got us out to places that were fairly sheltered from the wind and my daughter had a fish on within seconds of the first cast. Nobody else even had a pole yet! Despite rough waters, we safely navigated around the bay to several spots to fish. All 4 of us caught fish and everyone had a great time with the Captain. He managed to maintain control of the boat, the fishing, some scheduling with later clients to adjust their times all while being social and sharing jokes and stories with our family. This guy loves what he does and it is very clear. Highly recommend Captain Chris for a charter. We’ll have him take us out again next time!

8 year old son loved it
2 Hour (Kids Trip) on July 6, 20251 adult1 child

We booked with Captain Chris for a kids charter, the price was reasonable and communication was great. He got us on fish as soon as he put rods in. Caught 13 red fish in two hours and my son had so much fun. Would absolutely recommend to anyone! And will be a repeat customer after such a great experience! Even if we had not caught so many, he was so helpful and encouraging to my son and made the whole experience wonderful!
