If you’re doing an onshore or near shore excursion you’ll catch roughly 10 to 15 inch fish. Dress appropriately for the weather. Expect the temp to be cooler than the current forecast.

Book your trip as early as possible, maybe even before you arrive. Morning trips are great because it’s easier to get live bait, but this evening trip did not disappoint. We filled the cooler with Sheepshead, Trout and White Grunts.

Book with someone experienced and has been in the area for a while. They can be a better resource than just for fishing.

First timers, I would definitely recommend you research the captains and vessels before making a decision on who to book with while in Bradenton. I did and it led me to Capt. Louis. He's knowledgeable, friendly and will work with even the most novice of anglers to guarantee a memorable experience. But above all, have fun!

Captain Louis went out of his way to provide a high quality tailored fishing trip, he taught us how to fish and took us to several hot spots. My son caught so many fish he lost count. Smiles all around for the adventure. We all loved it. We would book with him in the future.

Find a guide who knows the water and has experience with landing different styles of fish. It's important that they have proper working equipment and fishing tackle. Make sure they have a contingency plan if the boat has issues. Make sure you have bug spray and sun protection. Make sure you have the proper fishing license and Florida wildlife book for information on size limits and creel limits.

It was good fishing, it goes without saying though, that it will vary from season to season. It was my first time fishing in Bradenton Beach, but I will be doing again in a few months.
