What anglers said about fishing in Clearwater

Book earlier trips then later. The afternoon sun will torch you if you book afternoon. Long sleeves, hat, sun block, and water a good idea

Typically in fishing, the fish become more active in the spring as the days grow longer, which triggers the spawn, and the water warms which makes the fish more active (fish are cold-blooded). The captain indicated that the spring/summer months are the perfect time for this trip; however, I would recommend reaching out if you have any concerns with the timing of your trip. I would also recommend morning trips as it gets HOT during the day.

Go offshore for at least four hours so that you can get to the areas where the big or more prevalent fish are.

We had a slightly windy afternoon fishing because a storm had just come through that morning but I would suspect that the waters are normally very calm given the island masses throughout the water area. We booked an inland/shore fishing trip v. a deep sea trip since some of us are prone to motion sickness. We did take Bonine motion sickness medicine beforehand to be on the safe side but even with the wind and light chop the motion in the boat wasn’t bad at all.

It's inshore fishing, not deep sea offshore, but the fishing can be excellent and still catch some great fish, just be clear what you want to catch so if expecting something different then what you catch you will not be disappointed. Just message the captain questions, wet lines fishing is very quick to reply and very accommodating to every need and request

Bring your sunscreen and hat! Go early before the sun comes up and figure on fish not biting after 11 am or a late evening trip to avoid the heat.
