Background: Captain Terry Heller started fishing with his dad and has been fishing ever since, from Alaska down to Florida. Originally from the Chicagoland area, he started guiding charters in and around Port Charlotte, FL in 2005. He says "I found warm weather and great fishing here with lots of wildlife, so I stayed." What he loves most about guiding charters is seeing the look on a customer's face when they land an amazing catch.
Techniques: The Weather controls where we fish and what's in season controls what we can fish for.

What's biting now?

Jan 2, 2023 Port Charlotte

In the bay sheep head are the hot button. Trout, Jacks, and some Red Fish. Out in the gulf the season open up and we now have available Snapper, Key West Grunts, Trigger, and Tripple Tail. Grouper ( red only) 20 inches or over. Action is Good Weather is the only thing holding us from getting the fish. Winds must be 10 mph or less or winds from the East is best.

We have FISH..... Just because we have s

Where's the FISH? Well I have been in 50 feet of water and done well. I have also been in 2 ft. of water and have also done well. The trick is to go were the "red" tide isn't. Look for clear water and no mirk on top. Use live bait and cut bait to be successful.

Half Day Trip - Bay Fishing

I agreed and we have rescheduled for next year. Captain Terry could have just taken us out and collected his funds, but he is better than that, he contacted us and saId it is about the experience not the money, he would rather have us catch fish than go home with a bad experience. Great captin in my t0 years of fishing! Thanks and I will update after our trip, I suspect it will be a great experience 😀

Captain Terry was absolutely fabulous and we all had a wonderful time. He supplied everything that we were ever going to need and took us out to a great spot where we started catching fish right away and stayed that way till the day was over. Came home with a bunch of good fillets. Certainly would recommend Captain Terry to anybody, he really knows what he’s doing and is very familiar with his equipment and the Gulf.

The day was great for fishing, and you all proved it to me. The wind was blowing in the early morning and I was a bit concerned that we may have to fish the bay, but all went well and we stayed the day in the Gulf. less not forget the Tarpons we passed on the way in. PS. Where are all the Grouper pictures ? How did you like the taste of the Sea Bass? Thanks Again for a great trip, hope to see you soon.

Captain Terry and First Mate Cody were awesome! They took us to the fish and we caught 10 or more different species! We had enough for several fish fry’s! Would highly recommend Captain Terry! He knows where they are!

Captain Terry was the best! Knowledgeable about the area and the species’s and his own love of fishing shows. The boat is stable and smooth and the engine is quiet. Give it a try, you will not regret it! Tight lines!

I hope the fish fry was as good as the Walleye you get in Canada. I know the sites of the area such as the 6 very large Manatee had to be exciting to see close up and under the boat. That sting ray was just a few of the larger fish found in the bay. Hope to see you again . Captain Terry.
