Sarasota has a fish with your name on it, so let LanierSpots Gulf Charters help you catch it! With Captain Ryan at the helm, you'll have a knowledgeable and experienced guide. Capt Ryan has over 20 years of guiding experience and has completed over 4,000 guide trips in that time. 

Depending on the season, you might hook into Snook, Redfish, Speckled Trout, Gag Grouper, Red Grouper, Hogfish, Mangrove Snapper, and who knows what else!

LanierSpots Gulf Charters welcomes kids aboard, so get 'em offline and onto the water! Children must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board. And, you can't go wrong with snacks to ward off any mid-trip fatigue!

Your boat for the day is a 25' Tidewater bay boat with space for 6 passengers. It comes with all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. Capt. Ryan will supply rods and reels for you, along with lures. Live bait is also included.

Your fishing license for the day is covered by the charter boat, so you can drive right over and come aboard without any hassle! Keep in mind that you may release some fish due to regulations. Your captain will help you follow regulations while you fish.

Don't leave home without sunglasses, a hat, sunscreen (non-spray), and bottled water. If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, so long as you avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Nearshore trips are weather permitting and always inside 10 miles from the coast.  We also cater our trips to your needs. Just tell us what you would like to do on your trip.

We are also doing sandbar trips for the family as well as sunset cruises from Anna Maria Island to Sarasota Bay.  We can incorporate this into your fishing day if you like.  Just ask.

Captain Ryan 100%
4 Hour Trip – Inshore on март 25, 20262 adults4 children
Captain Ryan did a fantastic job assisting in a great family experience! My son daughter and myself went out with Ryan for the 1st time today but wont be the last. I would highly recommend him to anyone who wants a captain who will work hard to get you on fish and have fun doing so. We were on a 4 hr inshore and caught tons of fish to include Sheeps heads, snapper, sea bass, trout, flounder, tons of grouper & lady fish. We went home with great table fair and tons of good memories. His boat was nice, comfortable and well stocked with what we needed. Ryan was fun to share fishing stories with!
Reported catch:

I have fished fresh and salt for 30+ years and some people just have the ability to catch fish and care about giving others a great experience. For those of you that have fished with guides you know this is not the case all the time and I would argue is unusual. Ryan loves it and has it. He fishes hard, amazed how well he has figured things out in the gulf that others haven't figured out in 25 years of fishing. That is drive and being able to target so many species is key because if you have days like we have had, you will need to improvise and keep the day intact. Great with kids and inexperienced anglers but let him loose with an experienced bunch and you will get a different look. Keep it up Ryan. Thanks for the many good memories fishing wherever the day ended up taking us.

If you are looking for a fun day of catching fish, be it inshore or nearshore, I totally recommend going out with Captain Ryan of LanierSpots Gulf Charters. With his many years of professional fishing and guiding experience, you will learn the how and whys of the many species you will catch. I have been fortunate enough to fish with Captain Ryan several times and I'm not sure there is a species we haven't caught! Whether you are looking for table food or just a fun day of catching fish, give LanierSpots Gulf Charters a call and experience why you will become a repeat customer as well! Tight Lines.

Triple Tail Excitement
5 Hour Trip – Nearshore on август 30, 2025
Excellent Time! We took a couples trip with Ryan. Everyone caught plenty of fish. The girls had a ball. On the way back in, Ryan's expertise recognized an opportunity to catch some Triple-tail. He immediately handed us some rods rigged with swimbaits (that he designed by the way). We commenced to putting them in the boat, one after another, by casting the swimbaits along side a buoy. One fantastic conclusion to our trip. Great value for the money...Especially when you see Ryan's impeccable equipment and expertise on the waterway. We will be back for another trip with Ryan.

February fishing trip
5 Hour Trip – Nearshore on фебруар 5, 2026
Experience "We had an incredible day on the water with LanierSpots Gulf Charters. Captain Ryan is the real deal—he has decades of experience from Lake Lanier and has transitioned that expertise perfectly to the Gulf. He knew exactly where the fish were biting and kept us on the action all morning. If you’re looking for a knowledgeable guide who makes the trip both fun and successful, this is the one to book!"
