If you plan on fishing in Bradenton Beach, look no further than Salty Attitude Fishing Charters.

Local species include Gag Grouper, Red Grouper, Grunt, Hogfish, Sheepshead, Lane Snapper, Mangrove Snapper, Tarpon, Speckled Trout, Spanish Mackerel, Snubnose Pompano, Redfish, and more, with any luck.

You'll target your catch by spinning, drifting, jigging, bottom fishing, or perhaps using a more specialized technique for the area.

Families looking to make a day of it will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! Children must wear life vests, so check if the appropriate size is available on board. You're also welcome to bring snacks for a boost of energy when needed!

Your adventure begins aboard a 21' center console with room for 4 passengers. It comes with all the essentials you need for a successful fishing trip.

Rods, reels, tackle, and lures are ready for you. Live bait is also available, but it's best to ask about this in advance so you know whether you'll need to catch it yourself.

The charter covers your fishing license, so you can arrive and come aboard without any hassle! Some fish have special regulations, including when they can be kept, so simply ask your captain for more information.

Some essentials to bring are sunglasses, sunscreen (non-spray), and bottled water. If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but please avoid hard liquor and glass bottles.

Now and then, the fish might get away, but a day on the water never should. It's time to make it happen with Salty Attitude Fishing Charters!

    One of the best and most enjoyable time im been out the water

    8 Hour – Fishing Trip on August 30, 2026

    Hands down one of the best charters I've been on. we went out bright and early in the morning loaded on to the boat which was actually a nice size boat plenty of room to walk around launched and took a nice ride out in the gulf the water was smooth as glass dropped a line and with in a few seconds boom the rod was bent in half im fighting this huge fish and one after the next fish after fish it just kept going a shark even got one one of them it was awsome ended up with a nice haul if you are try to catch fish this is the guy to go to. He is very knowledgeable and knew the different species and size limits. it was a blast the best part is I didnt even have to clean them he took care of it haha what a day to remember i will definitely be going again

    Amazing Experience-Loved It!!

    8 Hour – Fishing Trip on August 8, 2026

    I had an amazing fishing experience/boat ride! Captain Josch is so much fun and a great fishing teacher at that. He showed me how to catch 5 fisn at one time with a sabiki line❤️. Wow! It was so much fun. The sabiki line was so heavy i had to real it in with the help of the Captain. I caught enough fish which we were able to use some for bait! If any of you want an exciting fun filled day, I highly recommend "Salty Attitude Charter". You will rave at the large catch of the day to your family & friends. Captain Josch made my fishing charter one I'll never forget. Check out my catches. I even got to see a family of dolphins! They were so much fun to see swimming alongside the boat!! What a fantastic time. I definitely will be out there again soon. The fish I caught were keepers and our fish fry, mighty tasty. Loved every moment🥰❤️🐋

    Awesome experience

    8 Hour – Fishing Trip on August 25, 2026

    Captain Josch knows his stuff! We took an offshore trip and had fish on every spot we stopped. Hooked up within minutes of hitting the first spot! Caught a large variety of different fish and even a couple species I haven’t caught before. Boat was very clean and comfortable with plenty of room to move around. I definitely recommend booking a trip with Josch, he’s a very knowledgeable captain. 10/10 trip and one that I will remember. Looking forward to getting back out there with him in the future!

    The Views Were 10/10 👀

    4 Hour – Fishing Trip PM on August 16, 2026

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Such a fun afternoon on the water! Caught a couple fish & enjoyed some beautiful views. Cruising as the sun started going down was easily my favorite part. 🌅🎣 Captain Josch was fun, professional, and made the whole experience feel laid-back and enjoyable. The fish were a nice catch… but I may have had my eye on a different catch the whole time. 👀😂 10/10, would absolutely book again!
