Anna Maria Offshore Fishing is all about fishing the stunning waters of Bradenton Beach. Captain Philip will be your guide, giving you access to years of local experience.

These waters are known for Red Grouper, Hogfish, Amberjack, Great Barracuda, Goliath Grouper, Yellowtail Snapper, Mangrove Snapper, and more – with any luck, you'll have tight lines in no time. During the trip you might be light tackle fishing, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.

Families who love fishing together 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. You're welcome to bring snacks so that nobody gets cranky on an empty belly!

You'll be welcome aboard a 28' Pro Sports Prokat center console that can carry up to 6 passengers. It comes with all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. Capt. Philip will supply rods and reels for you. Live bait is available, but it's good to ask about this so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.

Your fishing license for the day is covered by the charter boat, so you can drive right over and come aboard without any hassle! Keep in mind that some fish may have harvest limits or closed seasons. Simply ask and your captain can tell you more.

You can't go wrong when you bring sunblock (non-spray), sunglasses, and bottled water. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.
