Steinhatchee Fishing Charters

Comfortably nestled in the heart of Florida’s Big Bend, you’ll find a small town called Steinhatchee that has gorgeous views, friendly people, and extraordinary angling options. Steinhatchee fishing charters provide anglers and outdoor enthusiasts looking to explore the waters of this rich fishery a great chance to do so.

Inshore, the plentiful flats serve as the perfect hideout for Redfish, Speckled Trout, Spanish Mackerel, and more. For all those fishers who prefer to prowl offshore grounds for fishing action, Steinhatchee’s got King Mackerel, Cobia, Amberjack, and Black Seabass. You can also head further out to explore Steinhatchee’s artificial reefs for Snapper and Grouper, as well as Sheepshead, Spanish Mackerel, and Bluefish.

If you’re in a time-crunch, Steinhatchee has you covered. On half day trips, you’ll be able to test what’s biting while relaxing in the sun. If you’re looking to try your hand at trolling the Deadman Bay, having a few extra hours will help get more shots at your target. If you’d also like to add a visit to the offshore wrecks to your adventure, it’s best to plan on booking a full day.

Steinhatchee is a relatively small community, so finding a local charter shouldn’t be too hard. All along the Steinhatchee River, there are marinas and boat ramps where you can look for a captain or a guide that’s perfect for your adventure. From here, you’ll be only minutes away from the productive fishing grounds of Deadman Bay, maximizing your fishing time on the trip.
 

Like anywhere in Florida, you don’t have to worry about getting a fishing license if you’re going saltwater fishing with a registered charter operation. However, if you plan to do some freshwater Steinhatchee fishing, you will require a recreational freshwater fishing license.
