Sarasota has a fish with your name on it, so let Charter Sauce Fishing help you catch it! Having logged many hours on these tides, Captains Joseph and Kayden can tell you all about them.

These waters are known for Tarpon, Redfish, Speckled Trout, Snook, Cobia, Black Grouper, Mangrove Snapper, Tripletail, Sheepshead, Pompano, King Mackerel (Kingfish), Spanish Mackerel, and more – with any luck, you’ll hook into a few!

For these species, you’re likely to troll and bottom fish using light tackle. Capt. Joseph and Kayden also offer fly fishing, but you may need to bring your own fly gear.

You’re welcome to keep some of the fish you catch, so long as it’s legal. Catch cleaning is available, so you can take your fish home without any hassle. Your next meal doesn’t get any fresher than that!

Your excursion begins aboard a 23’ Gause Built center console with room for 4 passengers. It comes with everything you need for a productive day on the water. Your captain will provide rods and reels, as well as 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 all you have to do is look forward to your trip! Be mindful that some species may have special rules or limited seasons. Your captain will help you follow regulations while you fish.

Planning a family adventure? Kids are absolutely welcome! Children must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board. Snacks are never a bad idea so that nobody gets cranky on an empty stomach!

It’s always wise to bring sunglasses, a hat, sunscreen (non-spray), and bottled water. There will be some drinks on offer, but be sure to let the captain know if you wish to bring your own. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just be sure to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

If you’re looking for the perfect mix of reel screaming action, laughs, and unforgettable sights, stop scrolling and book with Captain Joe. This wasn’t just a fishing trip , it was a full-on Gulf Coast adventure. We saw tarpon bigger than toddlers, manatees lazing like vacationers, dolphins playing tag, and even got to feed a gang of hungry pelicans (they are definitely not shy). Captain Joe also gave us a front-row tour of the stunning Gulf shoreline — 10/10 would recommend bringing your camera and your sense of wonder. Captain Joe knows his stuff, keeps the vibes high, and knows all the best spots. He’s got the kind of easy charm and local knowledge that turns a charter into a memory you’ll want to frame. Whether you’re a seasoned angler or just here for the boat snacks and sea breeze, you’ll leave smiling, sun-kissed, and probably planning your next trip before you even dock. Don’t miss the boat , literally. Book with Joe. You’ll thank yourself later.

Captain Kayden was very knowledgeable about the waters and fish in the Sarasota area. His boat was clean, well equipped, and he made the trip extremely enjoyable. We have been out with many captains all over Florida and Captain Kayden is now one of our favorites! We caught fish and enjoyed the 4 hour trip immensely.

Kayden was timely, professional, and a nice guy! We were catching fish within minutes of leaving the dock, making the most of our time and totaling 12 red drums in a 1/4 day. The boat was clean, the tackle was set up well, and the captain made sure we were where the fish were! 10/10 charter with Charter Sauce!

The boat, equipment, and variety of fish was fantastic! The best part of the trip was how great Captain Kayden was! He made my 12 year old son and myself feel comfortable and welcome! Amazing experience! Charter Sauce should be at the top of your list when booking a fishing trip in the Sarasota area! Definitely doing it again!

Capt. Joseph runs trips out of Sarasota, FL, with Charter Sauce Fishing. These waters are known for Jack Crevalle, Kingfish, Tarpon, and more, and he will show you how to catch them, whether you're trolling or bottom fishing. With over 22 years of experience, he has a trick or two up his sleeve, and the only way to learn is to join him out on the water!
