If you're ready to love fishing in Anna Maria Island, look no further – you're in knowledgeable and experienced hands.
These waters are known for Jack Crevalle, Cobia, Black Drum, Mangrove Snapper, Redfish, Black Grouper, Gag Grouper, Flounder, Sheepshead, Speckled Trout, Bonnethead Shark, and more – with any luck, you'll find out for yourself!
On these trips, it’s common to use light tackle.
Trips are kid-friendly, so the whole family can come and unplug for the day! Children must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board.
Your trip begins aboard a 21' center console with room for 4 passengers. It comes with all the essentials.
You'll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you. Live bait is included, but you should ask the captain whether you'll be catching it yourself.
The charter boat covers your fishing license, so you can drive right over and come aboard without any hassle! Keep in mind that you may release some fish due to regulations. If you don't know what to expect, ask the captain.
Some essentials to bring are a hat, sunglasses, bottled water, and sunblock (non-spray). There will be some drinks on offer, but let the captain know if you wish to bring your own. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.
Come aboard, enjoy the day on the water, and see what’s biting around Anna Maria Island!

If you’re looking for fun in the sun, a ride on the boat with some fishing or just to get out of the house, I highly recommend this fishing guide. Thomas is not only a knowledgeable, friendly, fun person but he wants to make sure your experience is the best one out there! He knows just about everything about fishing, the ocean and all the local wildlife. He made our family feel extremely safe and taken care of on the ocean. We made a lot of memories on this trip and will be coming back for this guide specifically. Can’t thank him enough for such a fun trip for the whole family!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!

Thank you SO MUCH Rochelle! I'm glad you and your family had an AWESOME time!! I look forward to seeing everyone in the future.
Went out fishing with a couple of my buddies and couldn’t recommend Captain Thomas enough. Very passionate and knowledgeable about everything fishing. Had great action all day. Boat is super clean and he has all the equipment you’ll need. Priced very reasonable as well. If you’re in the AMI area definitely check it out!

I'm glad you had an AWESOME time Julian!😁👍 Hopefully we'll see you again soon with more ADVENTURES!!

An absolute 5-star experience! Captain Thomas put us right on the fish within minutes of dropping lines. His knowledge of the local waters, top-tier equipment, and friendly, hands-on coaching made for an unforgettable day on the water. Highly recommend!

Thank you Dana! We're happy that you had a great time!

Great local charter company! Professional, knowledgeable, affordable and genuinely passionate about what they do. If you’re looking for a great fishing charter with a captain who knows the area, definitely check them out. Highly recommend!

Thank you Josey! We're glad you had an AWESOME experience! Hopefully we'll see you again in the future as well!

I’ve used Capt Thomas a number of times over the years and always have a great experience. He’s very friendly, professional and has incredible knowledge on the water. I’ll continue to use Capt Thomas in the future.
