Nice and relaxed fishing

We were out for inshore fishing mid August for 4h in the morning. We caught plenty of various fish. Some decent ones too among them redfish and snooker. Clear recommendation and fun activity

Beautiful day with the family and Captain Jack !
5/5
We went out fishing with our 2 youngers sons, 14 and 16 and we had a super day of inshore fishing. We catched trouts and a snook. Captain Jack was always ready and helpful to put a bait on our hook. When we got back, he prepared our trouts and we had a nice dinner at night :)

Awesome Day on the Bay
5/5
Had an incredible time on our fishing trip with Nate. Super laid-back vibe and he clearly knows the water and how to find fish. We were into action pretty quick - caught trout, grouper, jacks, ladyfish, a flounder, and a few snook. He had great gear, gave solid pointers, and kept things fun the whole time. Really appreciated how easygoing and patient he was. If you’re looking for a fishing trip around Sarasota, this is the one.

Captain Anthony gave us a great day fishing! He got us right on the fish and we had a limit of nice trout an hour into the trip and then got to relax the last 3 hours and chase reds and snook. He did a great job filleting our catch and we went home with enough for multiple meals. Anthony will definitely take care of you and your group!

We had a great fishing trip! There was 6 of us and Captain Jack kept us baited and fishing. He worked quick and was very personable. We enjoyed the morning being on his boat. We caught sea trout, snook and mangrove snapper.
