You're likely to fish for Lane Snapper, Gag Grouper, Gray Triggerfish, Grunts, Snook, Sea Trout and more with any luck. You can expect to do some light tackle fishing, trolling, or maybe something more specialized in this area.

Capt Eddie is a real pro

Half Day Trip – Reef Special (PM) on March 31, 2026 • 2 adults • 3 children

Beautiful new boat with all the newest tech. Expert captain. Caught lots of fish. New tackle. Captain was great with the kids. Would definitely go back again if we return to Anna Maria Island. This trip great for all ages and experience levels. Just show up and catch fish. We will be eating our keepers for dinner tomorrow. Captain Eddie cut up the fish and put them on ice for us. Ge even gave us a recipe to cook our catch. Lots of free parking near the marina. Cant wait to rebook.

Liked It So Much - Did It Again

6hr– Offshore (up to 9mile) on November 9, 2025

While my old Navy friend was in town, a 1/2 Day Inshore trip was booked with Captain Eddie at the helm. I'm an experienced fishermen, my pal, not so much - Didn't matter. Captain Eddie took care of him. Whether baiting, coaching, or all around helping out, Captain Eddie was observant and approachable. We had such a good time we booked again, this time for our units' reunion, a 3/4 Day Offshore trip. Let me tell you, the fish were caught like they were going out of style. Highly recommend Captain Eddie and Mama Tried Fishing Again.

Great Day Fishing!

Half Day Trip – Reef Special (PM) on November 3, 2025

My family went out and the guys had a GREAT time making big catches. Captain Eddy was amazing. He knows the area so well and was so helpful. He made everyone feel like an experienced angler! Loved his insight on the area and all the great spots to go. I am not much of a fishing girl, but he was patient and helpful in getting me up to speed. I was so excited when I caught my first one! I highly recommend Mama Tried Fishing Again for an amazing experience. Great for all ages. Next time I want to bring the kids!
