Let your angling ambitions take you to Tarpon Springs, Florida and you’re guaranteed to have an unforgettable experience fishing with Florida Snook Charters. Capt. Saki Halikos was born and raised in Tarpon Springs and has been guiding clients for over ten years.
Spend the day aboard his 25’ Dorado saltwater fishing boat and you won’t regret it! Fresh out on the water in 2017, it can take up to four anglers fishing in comfort. The boat comes powered by a 350 HP Mercury Pro Verado and rigged with excellent navigational and safety gear, a wireless trolling motor, a fighting chair, live bait tank and an ice-box.
The captain specializes in light tackle sportfishing and private custom backwater fishing trips. He will put you on the finest inshore “game fish,” such as Snook, Redfish, Trout, Tarpon, Cobia, Kingfish, and Sharks. You’ll get to explore the best local flats, rivers, and inshore/nearshore waters and try your luck with spinning, jigging, and even fly fishing.
All the equipment will be covered by the charter, from state of the art conventional and fly tackle to lures and live bait. Bottled water is provided and you’re also welcome to bring your own drinks, just no additional coolers on board. The first mate will make sure to clean and fillet your catch and the captain can even recommend the best local restaurants to cook your catch ($9.95 per person + side dish).
From Tarpon Springs to Boca Grande ,“Tarpon Capital of the World”, Capt. Saki’s got you covered. He takes a lot of pride in what he does and he’ll make sure you have a great experience fishing with Florida Snook Charters!

5 Hour Trip
Both Captains were awesome! Hard to catch fish in the summer.. not for this crew! We moved and moved until we found them! Caught Snook, red fish and trout all day long! Grand Slam! Had an excellent time and will be back again very soon! Had a blast, it was a first class charter! Book with confidence and have a blast. See you guys in October. Thanks again the Rogers ( 3 generations)

Captain Saki and Ryan were awesome. They took care of everything and we’re prepared for us right from the start. Me and our group had a great time.

Had a very wonderful, attentive captain who kept out hooks baited and our lines in the water. Definitely would book again!

We had an excellent time. Captain Saki was a gentleman and very helpful to our party. Every spot was holding fish. We had great quality live baits. He made everyone comfortable and really made the trip special for our group. We caught over 20 slots redfish and snook! Captain Ryan, Saki's partner, was always dialed in, had a great eye for spotting the fish, and handled the boat (25' Dorado) with practiced ease and skill. The boat was ideally setup for the context and environment. We highly recommend this charter service.
