Ready to catch some fish in Port Charlotte? Then Tides and Tails Expeditions LLC has a trip with your name on it!

Fishing around here will often see you targeting Speckled Trout, Jack Crevalle, Snook, Redfish, Tarpon, Sheepshead, and more if you cast your line at the right time of year.

On these trips, you can expect to using light tackle. Capt. Andrew also offers fly fishing trips on the shallow mangrove flats and islands of Charlotte Harbor.

Tides and Tails Expeditions LLC welcomes kids aboard, so get 'em offline and onto the water! Children must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board. Snacks are permitted onboard - bring your favorites to stay fueled throughout your trip!

Capt. Andrew operates a 18' Skiff with capacity for 2 passengers. It comes with everything you need for a productive day on the water.

Rods, reels, and tackle are provided, as well as lures. Live bait is available, but it's good to ask about this so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.

The charter boat covers your fishing license, so all you have to do is show up ready for a good time! Some fish have special regulations, including when you can keep them. Your captain will help you follow regulations while you fish.

It's never a bad idea to bring bottled water, sunglasses, and sunblock (non-spray). If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but you should avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Give yourself something to look forward to and book a trip with Tides and Tails Expeditions LLC!

    Killer Trip

    Half Day Trip – Dock Light Fishing on September 15, 2026

    Captain Andrew is a fishy dude, worked so hard to put me on fish. Learned a lot about the fishery. If you are on the fence about booking with Capt Andy this is your sign to book the trip, you will not regret it!

    Can’t wait for the next trip!

    Half Day Trip – Dock Light Fishing on February 8, 2025

    Capt. Andy was wonderful! He was patient and helped ease my mind about fishing in the dark. He gives great instruction and doesn’t get upset when I didn’t listen 😂. Can’t wait for our trip this year!
