Anna Maria Fishing

'The Florida Man'5 adults

Fishing with Captain Andy on the “Florida Man” fishing trip was a perfect way to spend a few hours with family and friends. There was 5 of us on this awesome nearshore AND inshore fishing day! We caught sea trout, snapper, grouper, and of course an Anna Maria favorite… Snook!! For 7 hours we caught fish! I highly recommend Captain Andy if you are looking to book a fishing trip in Anna Maria! Take it from some ol’ Carolina boys… We’ll be back!

    Catching not just fishing

    4 Hour Trip (PM)4 adults1 child

    Andy had us on the fish the whole time. We got 4-5 different species. He also really knows his birds. We saw dolphins and manatee. The kids loved it, and Andy was great with them, calling ahead to make sure he had the right sized life jackets. There was a time or two that all four of us had a fish on the line and he ran around like a mad man, rebaiting our hooks and landing fish. He cleaned and filleted our fish. We kept some sea trout and made ceviche that night, and seatrout piccata. Delicious. His pricing was great and he was responsive to texts and even called me as we walked towards the boat, so we didn't have to look for him. He was also 10 minutes early. Great guide

    Snook on the hook!

    4 Hour Trip (AM)2 adults

    Captain Andy was excellent! He put us on snook immediately after a run over Palma Sola Bay. He already had the livewell full of baits and ready to go…. Texted me at 7:00 and said if we were ready, so was he…. We had a grandson, two son in laws and myself ready to fish. Captain Andy kept our hooks baited and ready for bites. Andy’s boat is top shelf with a comfortable ride and plenty of room for everyone to cast. Got back to the dock and now its time for a nap! thanks again to Captain Andy and Saltbound Fishing Charters!

    Wonderful morning on the water catching fish!

    4 Hour Trip (AM)5 adults

    Had a wonderful morning fishing wirh Captian Andrew! Well organized and knows rhe local spots to get fish on! Went with a friend and our teenage sons. The Captian was super patient and answerd the dozens (hundreds?) of questions the boys had. Everyone enjoyed the trip, caught at least 5 species of fish and we took home enough speckled trout to feed the rest of the family when we got home! Thanks Captian!

    Captain Andy is excellent.

    4 Hour Trip (AM)5 adults2 children

    We chose Captain Andy based on his coast guard background and he did not disappoint. Our family is a group of experienced fishermen and have been with many fishing guides. Andy was super attentive and knowledgeable and put us in fish during our entire half day charter. Highly recommended and we will be using him again on our next visit.
