What a great trip. Skipper Henry was happy to take us wherever we wanted so we chose the 2 reefs just off Anna Maria Island.
We were into action immediately with some stunning Spanish mackerel and Bonito. Reels were screaming all round the boat, it was very exciting.
The highlights were the 5 ft Barracuda hooked on live bait and the shark.
Well, we fought the shark for the best part of an hour but never managed to get it close to the boat. The skipper did a great job in chasing it down but we let it live to fight another day.
We overran our 4 hour charter chasing the shark and all thanks to the skipper for his perseverance.
Highly recommended.

We did a half day fishing trip with Captain Henry.  Our group consisted of three adults and two kids (aged 7 and 9).  Henry was such a fantastic captain - he was easy to get along with, patient and fun.  He took us to several places to look for different kinds of fish and was very knowledgeable about the general area.  We ended up catching mangrove snapper, small grouper, and a few other kinds of fish.  At the end, he took us to a special spot to fish for snook.  Each person in our group caught at least one snook—it was a blast!  We had a great time and highly recommend Captain Henry for future trips!

Captain Henry worked hard to get us out of the wind and find fish.  Caught several snook and trout along with a couple reds and a jack.  Catching snook in the mangroves is what I had envisioned and he made it happen.
