Fish like a native with Lucky 13 Charters. Capt. Kyle was born and raised in Sarasota. and his almost 40 years of fishing experience makes him one of the best guides in Florida

Capt. Kyle aims to tailor every trip to your specific needs, so let him know what you’re after! Depending on the trip and species, you’ll be using techniques like trolling, jigging, and spinning. You’re looking at 4 to 6-hour trips, where you’ll usually go after the likes of Snook, Snapper, Redfish, Cobia, Tarpon, and Sheepshead, depending on the weather and time of year.

Your fishing adventure starts on a 24’ T-Craft boat that can safely take up to 6 anglers. This boat features a trolling motor to make anchoring and spot changes quick.

When it comes to rods, reels, and terminal tackle, everything you need is included in the price. No need to worry about fishing licenses, as they will be provided and handled by the charter.

You can keep anything you catch, as long as it’s legal to do so.

There will be complimentary drinks aboard for your convenience during the trip, but feel free to bring your drinks or snacks if you prefer.

This is a children-friendly charter, so you’re welcome to bring your kids on for a fun fishing adventure.

Please Note: Tip is not included in the price, and 20% is the industry standard.

Capt. Kyle was great. He showed my wife and I around the waters of Siesta Key and Sarasota while giving us some history of the area. He’s a 3rd generation native and his knowledge of the waters was evident as our lines stayed busy all morning. We’ll be booking him again next time we’re in the area.
