Ready to cast a line in Sarasota? Tide Up Charters is your ticket! Your guide for the day is Captain Billy, which means you'll tap into their sportfishing experience.
Depending on the time of year, you might hook into Snook, Redfish, Speckled Trout, Mangrove Snapper, Cobia, Tripletail, and whatever else takes the bait. For these species, you're likely to spin using light tackle.
Kids are welcome, so the whole family can come and unplug for the day! If you don't have a child-sized life vest of your own, be sure to ask if there's one on board. You're welcome to bring snacks for a boost of energy when needed!
Capt. Billy welcomes you aboard a 18' Sea Chaser flats boat with space for 2 passengers. It comes with all the essentials. Capt. Billy will supply rods and reels for you, as well as lures. Live bait is on offer, but you should ask the captain whether you'll be catching it yourself.
The charter boat covers your fishing license, so all you have to do is 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.
Some essentials to bring are a hat, sunglasses, and sunblock (non-spray). Drinks will be available for you. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but you should avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.
Now and then the fish might get away, but a day on the water never should. Time to make it happen, with Tide Up Charters!

i screwed up and missed my booking, Captain Billy was very accommodating and rebooked. When we did meet up everything was smooth. We hit a few spots and caught fish right off. My wifes goal to catch a variety was met when she caught a flounder while snook fishing. Ended up with 5 different species while fishing catch and release only as we were on vacation. Stress free good time pleasure fishing on a beautiful night. Will definitely fish again if back in Sarasota
We had a great 4 hour fishing trip with Captain Billy. Super nice guy, very knowledgeable on Sarasota fishing, great host. We fished multiple locations and caught it all!! Trout, Redfish, Snook, Sheepshead, Grouper, Black Drum, as well as a Bonnet-head Shark, & Ladyfish. Definitely recommend a day out fishing with Captain Billy.
