Captain Andres knows how to get you on the fish!

Half Day Trip – Inshore4 adults

Captain Andres knows how to get you on the fish. We started off with a couple first thing in the moring but Andres is not afraid to reel in and hit another spot to get into more. We got into a mess of Redfish and absolutely slammed them for an hour straight. 4 fishers, 4 fish on.. probably landed 15 of them atleast. A great experience with a great captain and an awesome boat. We will definitely book again next year!

    Awesome day on the water!

    3 hour inshore trip4 adults3 children

    We met Captain Andres at the dock (he was early, which was awesome) and he picked us up. He is very knowledgeable, helpful and courteous. He was patient with my 3 boys, who are very much novice anglers. He had us on fish within minutes of our first stop! We caught 3-4 dozen fish over the 3 hour excursion, and over a dozen of those were keepers mostly snappers and trout. He has a nice boat, nice equipment and the right attitude. I’m thankful there are young men like him to assist in teaching the next generation how to fish. I would recommend Captain Andres to anyone seeking a first class angling experience in the Anna Maria area. Thanks for helping us make memories with our boys!

    We caught so many fish!

    Half Day Trip – Nearshore3 adults

    I can't believe how many fish we caught! I literally lost count. Between my son and I, we caught about 6 red snapper, a few gray snapper, a couple redfish, a few snook, a young black tip shark, a 25-lb goliath grouper, a couple red grouper, a couple gag grouper, 2 flounder, and a couple others I don't remember. Could not have asked for a better fishing trip. Captain Gomez was great. Obviously knows what he's doing and the spots to fish, but was also great about sharing his knowledge of the fish and the area. Also appreciated his great attitude and sense of humor. I could not recommend him enough!

    Outstanding Trip

    3/4 day inshore trip2 adults

    Had a great trip with Captain Andres. Caught quality fish the entire morning. Caught our limit of big trout early and whacked big snook and reds the rest of the day. My son and I are both experienced anglers and have done many charters over the years. We both agreed this was at the top of the list. Andres is personable, and enjoyable to be around. He’s a phenomenal angler and kept us in action. This would be a great trip for a kid as well. If you’re thinking of booking a trip anywhere near Santa Maria… this is the guy to call. Thanks Capt A. for a fine day of fishing.

    Fish were jumping in the boat! Go with Andres Gomez

    Half Day Trip – Inshore5 adults

    Everything about this trip was perfect. Andres is very knowledgeable growing up in the area, fishing the Gulf and inshore areas most of his life. He is both friendly and helpful, explaining how the various fish behave and how best to catch them. We learned a lot, and YES we all caught RedFish, Snook, Sea Trout and others. He cleaned all the fish for us and we left with plenty of fish. We did throw back quite a lot as RedFish was limited to 2 per boat and Snook is not in season yet.

    Great Family fishing trip!

    3/4 day inshore trip6 adults

    Captain Andres was awesome! We had an awesome day on the water! The captain did a great job putting us on fish despite having anglers with all different experience levels. Everyone had a chance to catch fish, and we landed an incredible variety including snook, grouper, mackerel, snapper, trout, and several other species. He was patient, knowledgeable, and worked hard all day to keep us on the bite. Highly recommend if you're looking for a fun and successful fishing trip!
