We had a blast! We caught so many fish immediately on the beginning of our trip. We kept enough sea trout to have a family meal and released the rest. We caught a variety fish, including ladyfish, red drum, and snook. When we finished fishing the captain took us on a tour of the island. We even stopped at a sandbar to find sand dollars. The captain was very friendly and helpful. It was very easy to communicate with him and set up our fishing trip. I would recommend this fishing charter to anyone!
thanks so much for the review it was a pleasure having yall!
Jeff was a great captain with all the poles and bait a group of fishermen could ask for.ย He was patient in teaching us all how to bait our hooks and the reeling approach to minimize lost fish.ย He even fileted our fish afterward and offered his suggestions how best to cook the sheeps head we caught.ย Heโs a great resource about the island and offered up some fun facts along the way.ย Between the 40+ fish we caught - it was a great time!
Glad hear you had a great time and thank you for the review!! Hope to see you again!
Had an absolutely fantastic day with Captain Leonard. Pick up location was easy to find and we were in the fish within 30 minutes. First part of the trip was in shore and caught Snook, Jack, a flounder and Pinfish which we used later.
After the in shore fishing we headed just off the beach and got into a great school of Spanish Mackerel and Kings. Landed more than 10 Mackerel and 3 Kings. had a large King (on the Pinfish) that ran out a ton of line but broke off.
captain Leonard was attentive, a great conversationalist and knew his waters. will join him again next time we are down.

thanks for the review!! and thanks for the filets!
We booked our half day fishing trip a week before our trip, We received text and email communications up to the scheduled date. Our Captain was Jeff and he was great! He was very knowledgeable about the area and gave us some great tips and recommendations to improve our stay while visiting the area. He was very attentive, always making sure we had bait and giving us tips throughout the trip. When we arrived at the boat ramp he was already there ready for us to โgo fishingโ. We were a party of 3 and probably caught 50-60 fish. Jeff also had a great playlist of music for us to listen to on our excursion. Had a blast and would recommend Ratha be Fishin.

thank you for the great review! i hope you guys enjoyed the rest of your trip!
Overall good experience. Captain was exceptionally good in dire circumstances-heavy fog leaving launch and very rough waters exiting the bay to the reef off Anna Maria Island. Captain really good in teaching technique, resulting in wife Mary landing numerous keepers, which ended up on our dining table that nigh. Unique experience with pelicans begging for our rejects off shore, and dolphins swooping in to steal our catch. Captain adapted and overcame, thus our successful day. Highly recommend this charter
