Captain Cody Williams welcomes you and your loved ones to Sarasota for a fun day of fishing. Captain Cody is eager to take you to the area's inshore and nearshore water full of fish that's tasty as well as fun to chase. Your crew and the captain will be exploring the best spots for catching these water dwellers and he'll make sure you have the best chance of having a successful trip. Bring your whole family and embark on your fishing adventure in Florida!

You'll fish aboard Captain Cody's new boat, a 21' Mako center console. The boat can safely sit up to 6 guests and is powered by a single 150 HP Mercury engine. For efficient navigation on the water, it uses modern GPS, fishfinder, and radio systems. Also, the boat comes with a live well and an ice box.

You and the captain will be targeting Redfish, Black Drum, Mangrove Snapper, Cobia, and Snook. The technique used will be light tackle spinning. You're free to keep the fish you catch and take it home.

The trip price covers live bait, fishing licenses, catch cleaning, and drinks. Don't forget to bring some snacks as well so you stay fit throughout the trip.

Captain Cody is waiting for you, join him aboard and make lovely memories on the water!

4 Hour morning trip on February 17, 2026 • 6 adults

I would book Captain Cody Williams again without hesitation. He is knowledgeable, friendly, and a pleasure to be around. He knows exactly where to find the fish.

December fishing trip

4 Hour morning trip on December 20, 2024 • 3 adults • 1 child

He was very knowledgeable and friendly.  Helpful with the kids and wanting to make sure you got the experience you were looking for!  Great day of fishing.   Lots of laughs and new fish we've never seen or experienced before.  Not only did we catch for fun, but he also got us on some Keepers for dinner that night!  Definitely booking him again!!

Tarpon trip with captain cody

4 Hour morning trip on June 22, 2024 • 2 adults

Me and my dad wanted to get on some tarpon and capt Cody did just that. Put us on fish and made memories while doing it. Captain Cody is very knowledgeable and takes time to explain why he does something. Felt like being on a boat with an old friend instead of a charter captain. Would highly recommend captain cody to anyone looking to do any sort of fishing!!
