Nature Coast Flats Guide

Nature Coast Flats Guide is your ticket to the stunning waters of Bayport. Your guide for the day is Captain Ethan, so you’ll benefit from years of angling experience.

Around here, it’s common to catch Tarpon, Snook, Redfish, Speckled Trout, Jack Crevalle, Black Drum, and more if you cast your line at the right time of year. On the day of your trip, you’re likely to spin using light or heavy tackle. The captain has a strict catch-and-release policy, so any fish you catch will go back into the water. You’re free to keep Scallops.

You’ll be fishing aboard a 23’ Bay boat with space for 4 passengers. It comes with all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. Rods, reels, and tackle are provided, as well as lures. Live bait is on offer, but you should ask the captain whether you’ll be catching it yourself. The charter boat covers your fishing license, just show up ready for a good time!

Looking to get the whole family outdoors? Kids are welcome! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available. Don’t forget to bring snacks, sunglasses, and sunscreen (non-spray). Drinks are included, free of charge. Alcohol is allowed in moderation. Just be sure to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

How often would you rather be fishing? Go on and turn that daydream into a reality with Nature Coast Flats Guide.
