Located in beautiful Sarasota, Florida, High Class Hooker Charters offers light tackle, saltwater fishing charters suitable for every type of angler. Captain Camille has over 18 years of experience fishing the waters of Sarasota Bay, as well as the surrounding waterways from Tampa Bay down to Charlotte Harbor.

Captain Camille is a professional, experienced guide, with plenty of knowledge of these waters. His trips come with a “No Fish–No Pay Guarantee”, because he’s so confident that he’ll be able to put you on fish. If your group doesn’t catch fish, then your charter is free (deposit excluded). No other guide service in the area is capable of offering a guarantee like this.

You’ll be fishing from a 21’ Mako 2018 21lts flats boat powered by a 225 HP Mercury Verado engine. There are padded seats and seat backs, so you’ll ride in comfort to the hotspots. This boat is equipped with two large Ice Chests to store your catch and refreshments, two Power Pole Shallow Water Anchors for precision anchoring, a Minn Kota GPS enabled trolling motor, Garmin GPS/Sonar, and a large live well for plenty of bait.

Sarasota Bay and its surrounding waterways are home to some of the best inshore fishing in Florida. These waters are teeming with some of the most sought-after gamefish around, including Snook, Sea Trout, Redfish, and Tarpon. You’ll encounter other species, including Sheepshead, Black Drum, Snapper, Cobia, Pompano, Permit, and King Mackerel to name a few. 

Captain Camille’s charters include everything that your group will need for a productive day of fishing – rods, reels, tackle, and fishing licenses. Complimentary water is included, and High Class Hooker Charters will also clean and bag your catch for you to take home and enjoy on the journey back.

If you’re visiting Sarasota, Florida, and are looking for an exciting fishing experience, step aboard High Class Hooker Charters for an amazing inshore angling trip. Families and kids are always welcome aboard.
