Make some memories in Placida and go fishing with Flat Rats Charters. Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Noah can tell you all about them.

These waters are known for Redfish, Tarpon, Snook, and more – with any luck, it won't be long before 'Fish on!' On these trips, it's common to drift and bottom fish using light or heavy tackle. Capt. Noah can also have you Flounder gigging.

Trips with Flat Rats Charters are child-friendly, so the whole family can come and unplug for the day! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise you should bring your own. Snacks are never a bad idea!

You'll be dropping lines from a 20' Carolina Skiff flats boat with capacity for 6 passengers. It has all the essentials. Your captain will provide rods and reels, as well as lures. Live bait is included, but be sure to ask about it so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.

Your fishing license for the day is covered by the charter boat, just show up ready for a good time! Keep in mind that some fish may have harvest limits or closed seasons. If you don't know what to expect, ask the captain.

Don't forget to bring sunglasses, and sunscreen (non-spray). Drinks are included, free of charge. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but try to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.
