Be prepared to understand that there are a lot of weather fronts moving through. The variations in barometric pressure affects the fishing and other matter how hard your guide works sometimes the fish are just not going to bite.

Be ready to have fun and if you burn easy, bring sunscreen, ha. Listen to Captain Taylor and you will have a blast and feel like you're a natural at catching fish when your trip is done. This was my wifes first time fishing and she had a blast every minute on and off the boat.

The water temperatures are a bit cool yet for really hot action. Still we had solid results.

Try early morning fishing and make sure your charter is willing to go different spots if things are slow.

Beautiful water! We stayed on boca grande which was perfect for us, but if you are looking for a party scene this is not the place.

Go with a captain. Be prepared for rain, sun, wind and possibly rough conditions. It is outdoor activity on the water. It is a roller coaster ride, enjoy the adventure.

A good guide, someone like Captain Andrew who can help you catch fish and get used the process.

Sunscreen, patience and a Captain that has knowledge of the local fishing techniques and locations.
