Captain Jose knows Sarasota Bay
5/5
I had a blast fishing with Captain Jose this morning. He’s a great guy, very knowledgeable and personable and knows how to fish all of Sarasota Bay. I’m certain many other locales too based on our conversation. He knows when to pick up and move to a different spot based on the tide, weather and “bite”.
I will definitely fish with him again when I’m in town!!

Great experience! Captain Jose was super friendly and even gave us extra time until we caught some good fish. He also recommended a spot nearby where we could cook what we caught. Highly recommend!
