Capt Eddie is a real pro
Half Day Trip – Reef Special (PM) on March 31, 20262 adults3 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.

Captian Eddie and Mamma Tried Again was Wonderful!
6hr– Offshore (up to 9mile) on June 25, 20263 adults

This was my family’s first time Ocean Fishing and I could not have asked for a better Captian or trip. Captian Eddie was Amazing. Was the full package. Fun, attentive, knowledgeable, and just a great guy. Could bot ask for a better Captian for our first trip! We caught so many different species and filled our cooler for dinner that night! Such a great time and amazing time!

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.

Captain Eddie and the Boat were awesome!
Half Day Trip – Inshore on July 12, 20264 adults

The fishing was not very good, we caught a few but nothing we could take home and eat. The boat was beautiful and Captain Eddie was a great captain, knowledgable, personable and just made the trip fun! It was super hot!

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!
