No fishing license is required for guests, and Captain John will help you stay up to date with all applicable fishing regulations, including seasonal and catch restrictions.

For your trip, we recommend bringing a hat, sunglasses, bottled water, and non-spray sunscreen. Snacks are welcome to keep you fueled throughout the day. Other drinks are also welcome—just ask the captain first. Alcohol is permitted in moderation, but please leave the glass bottles at home.

All that's left is to grab your family or friends, step aboard, and get ready for an unforgettable Tampa Bay fishing adventure. Book your trip today and let's see what’s biting!
