Florida fishing doesn't get much better than this.

Step aboard a local charter in Holmes Beach and spend the day exploring the inshore waters and nearshore Gulf with AMI Go Fishing. This trip is built for fun, flexibility, and real Florida action—perfect for families, first-timers, and anglers who just want to enjoy a solid day on the water.

Every trip is different, but depending on the conditions you may be battling Snook in the shallows, drifting for Spotted Seatrout and Redfish, bottom fishing for Grouper and Snapper, or even hooking into Sharks that put up an unforgettable fight. Spanish Mackerel, Flounder, Sheepshead, and other local favorites are always in the mix.

Your captain adjusts the game plan in real time, using local knowledge and a mix of techniques like spinning, trolling, jigging, drifting, and bottom fishing to stay on the fish as conditions change.

You'll be fishing from a 21' Grady-White center-console designed for comfort and performance, with space for up to 6 guests. The boat is fully outfitted with quality rods, reels, tackle, and lures—no experience or extra gear required.

Families are welcome, kids included. Let the captain know ahead of time if you need a child-size life vest. Light snacks and drinks are onboard, and you're welcome to bring your own beverages. Alcohol is allowed in moderation (no glass bottles or hard liquor).

Your fishing license is covered, so there's nothing to worry about besides enjoying the ride. Some species may be catch-and-release depending on regulations, and your captain will guide you through it all.

Bring sunglasses, sunscreen (non-spray), bottled water, and a sense of adventure.

If you're looking for a relaxed, hands-on fishing experience with a knowledgeable local captain, this is your chance to fish Holmes Beach the right way with AMI Go Fishing. 🎣🌊

Caught a ton of fish with Captain Thomas Schmidt AMI Fishing Charter
4 Hour Trip – Fun Fishing - 11:00 AM on May 4, 20263 adults2 children
If you’re looking for the best fishing charter experience around Anna Maria Island, book with Captain Thomas Schmidt — you won’t regret it. From start to finish, everything was top-notch. Captain Thomas is incredibly knowledgeable about the local waters and knows exactly where to go to get you on the fish. Whether you’re a beginner or experienced, he makes the trip fun, easy, and successful. His patience and guidance really stood out, and he made sure everyone on board had a great time. The boat was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped, and the scenery around Anna Maria Island made the whole experience even better. We caught plenty of fish and made some unforgettable memories out on the water. If you want a professional, friendly, and highly skilled captain who truly cares about your experience, Captain Thomas Schmidt is the one to choose. Highly recommend — easily a 5-star trip!

We didn't want to leave the water
3 Hour Trip – Fun Fishing - 1:00 PM on January 2, 2026
We had the best time! I have been on fishing charters before with shoulder to shoulder people leaving little room for movement and little attention from guides. Not only was Captain Gunner quick to help when needed, but he joined in and added to our joking around. Our trip wasn't just about catching (I won the contest for who kept bait on the hook longest lol) we laughed, we relaxed, we kissed a few fish, we saw dolphin and enjoyed a beautiful day. We will definitely be booking with Captain Gunner when we visit AMI next - hopefully for longer than just 3 hours.

3 Hour Trip – Fun Fishing - 1:00 PM on May 10, 20263 adults2 children
We really enjoyed the trip. The captain was very friendly and knowledgeable and was great with the kids and teaching them how to fish! Obviously fishing is never 100% gueranteed, but we did catch fish and he tried very hard to put us in the best spots to do so. We're not local, but if we ever come back I would definitly book again.

Captain Thomas
3 Hour Trip – Fun Fishing - 2:00 PM on June 1, 20263 adults2 children
Took a couple of young kiddies for their first fishing experience. We had a great afternoon. Captain Thomas was awesome with the kids. Helped them with casting and bait. We caught lots of fish and a 40lb plus nursing shark. Would a 100% recommend and will definitely rebook when we next come back to AMI.
