Make an adventure out of your next trip in Placida and go fishing with Slobby Joe Charters. Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Joe is prepared to put you on fish.

Fishing around here will often see you targeting Tarpon, Snook, Redfish, and more, depending on when you go. For these species, you're likely to troll and bottom fish using light or heavy tackle.

Slobby Joe Charters is a kid-friendly charter service, so get 'em offline and onto the water! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise you should bring your own. Customers are encouraged to bring snacks so that everyone stays happy and energized!

You'll step aboard a 23' Ranger bay boat that holds up to 4 passengers. It comes with everything you need for a productive day on the water. Your captain will provide rods and reels, as well as lures. Live bait is available, but you should ask the captain whether you'll be catching it yourself.

Your fishing license for the day is covered by the charter boat, so all you have to do is look forward to your trip! Some fish have special regulations, including when you can keep them. Your captain will help you follow regulations while you fish.

Don't forget to bring a hat, sunglasses, and sunblock (non-spray). Drinks will be available for you. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just be sure to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Fishing has always been my passion! I grew up in Tampa Bay and have fished here all my life. I can't wait to show you the waters I've grown to love. I prefer light tackle fishing and shallow water sight fishing. From time to time I target Mackerel, Cobia, and Tarpon, but my main targets are Snook and Redfish.
