Here’s a town that lives and breaths fishing! A Hernando Beach fishing trip is bound to take your breath away. As one of the best-kept secrets in Florida, this little fishing town is a must-visit for any angler looking to get away from the crowds. With its numerous bays full of fish, as well as the waters of the Gulf of Mexico kissing its shore, you’ll find everything at your fingertips.
These are some of the richest waters around, and there’s a variety of fish species that call them home. Closer to shore, you’ll find Redfish, Snook, Trout, Flounder, Snapper, and Mackerel all competing for your bait. Head a bit further offshore, and there’s Red Snapper, Grouper, Amberjack, Mahi Mahi, Marlin, Tuna, and a lot more to keep you busy.
What’s the best trip for you? Well, if you’re looking to take your family out and make some memories, a half day inshore trip will do the trick. If you’re a more serious angler who wants to break some records or fill your bags, consider booking a full day trip. And there’s always the option of an extended full day trip if you'd like to search the Gulf's deep waters for some real sea monsters.
The town is literally made up of docks! This makes it really easy to find a fishing charter to take you out. Just head on down to the water and you’ll see them dotted all along, waiting for you to hop aboard!
Rules & Regulations
If you’re heading out on a fishing charter, your fishing license will be covered by the captain. But if you want to fish on your own, make sure you buy a Florida fishing license. Some species are heavily regulated, so heading out with a reputable captain is the best way to make sure you’re fishing within the law.
