If you’re ready to enjoy fishing in Placida, look no further than Through The Guides. Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain John Perry knows them forwards and back.
Fishing around here will often see you targeting Amberjack, Barracuda, Cobia, Black Grouper, Goliath Grouper, Gag Grouper, Scamp Grouper, Red Grouper, King Mackerel (Kingfish), Lane Snapper, Bluefin Tuna, Red Snapper, and more with any luck. You can expect to do some spinning, trolling, drifting, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.
If you’re traveling with the family, you will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise, you should bring your own. Also, remember to bring snacks so that nobody gets grumpy on an empty belly!
Capt. John Perry welcomes you aboard a 26’ Hydra Sport center console with room for 6 passengers. It comes with all the essentials. You’ll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you. 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, just show up ready for a good time! Some fish have special regulations, including when you can keep them. If you don’t know what to expect, ask the captain. It’s recommended to bring bottled water, sunscreen (non-spray), and sunglasses. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just be sure to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.
Go ahead and treat yourself to a day on the water with Through the Guides.
