I have been addicted to fishing for most of my life. My father and grandfather, both Miami natives, put a rod in my hand at a very young age. I have 20+ years of solid experience fishing the Tampa Bay, Florida Keys, East Coast, and have traveled many times to Central America, the Caribbean, and Mexico fishing with some of the most well-known guides in search of trophies. I've fished professionally since my late teens when I joined the Pursuit Fishing Team on the SKA Circuit and FLW King Fish Championship Series. I worked as a Chef for 17 years, fishing as a hobby through my twenties, and became a full-time, licensed captain in my late 20s. I have owned and operated many different boats over the years, from Mavericks and Shearwaters to Pursuits and Jupiters. I recently acquired my favorite boat yet, the Aeon 23 DLX. I love fishing more than just about anything else. Moreover, I love taking people fishing and teaching them about our local species and ecology.

    Awesome day on the water

    Halvdagstur (AM) • 1 voksen

    Capt Bernie was amazing! Very knowledgeable about the species we were catching and knew multiple places to catch them to ensure we were catching the entire trip. I only did the 4 hour trip this time but next time will be longer. Bernie is very friendly and overall just a great person. I didn’t have to bring a single item on the boat, he had everything we would need. Bernie went above and beyond to make my first ocean fishing trip unforgettable!

    Indberettet fangst:
    Snook
    Atlantisk crevalle

    Wow. Never caught so many fish

    4 Timers Eftermiddagstur • 4 voksne

    Bernie was awesome. Put us on the fish right away and we never stopped catching. 4 hour afternoon trip with my wife and two teenage sons. We are not experienced fisherman. Bernie gave great instructions and the fish all jumped in the boat. We lost track but we caught more than 25 fish. All good Reds and Snook. Bernie was working hard the whole time keeping the bait fresh and working out tangles. Good guy. I have already sent his info to a few friends. Pic is of one really small snook my wife caught. The rest were much bigger and she took the other pics. I’ll try to update.

    Indberettet fangst:
    Snook
    Plettet trommefisk
    Rød trommefisk

    Awesome with kids!

    Halvdagstur (AM) • 4 voksne • 2 børn

    Brought my 8 year old daughter and 13 year old niece out with Bernie this morning. They both had an amazing time! We caught a bunch of fish, he engaged with them super well and made sure they were always entertained and happy. This guy gets it.

Hvad bider på krogen med First Cast Fishing Charters i St. Petersburg

Tarpon-sæsonen er ved at ebbe ud, selvom du stadig kan fange dem over stenede bunde. De elsker stenkrabbe-sæsonen, fordi de kan spise som de konger, de er. Pas bare på krabbesnørerne, når du har fået bid!

Crazy Action in the Bay

Sep 21, 2024 • Sankt Petersborg
Took my father out for a fun fishing day. Snook were all over the place inside the passes. We fished the bay in afternoon and had a nonstop Spanish Mackeral and triut bite for almost 2 hours. Kept 10 Spanish, ate 3 last night, gave my neighbor the rest of the fish and was treated with Jerk Spanish Mackeral today. Neighbors are from Jamaica. Delicious This pattern should hold through December. Book a trip today!
