Angler's Dream Fishing runs trips seven days a week, thanks to the tireless work of its two captains, Brandon and Joe. Captain Joe always loved to fish. He got his first job as a deckhand at age 15 and became a captain just 4 years later. He loves the water and putting people on fish. Captain Brandon provides friendly guidance and makes an angler's first fishing experience easy and exciting!

    Phenomenal Fishing Experience!

    Half Day Trip (AM) – Shared2 adults

    Crew was right on time for departure and very knowledgeable! There were at least two other groups that were back for a second or third time, so the crew obviously does a great job! It seemed like most everyone caught something. A few caught 4-5. I caught one. When my friend who was with me wasn’t catching anything on her line, Captain Brandon let her real in a couple that he hooked on his line. Both he and Firstmate Andrew were friendly, extremely attentive to any issue, and quick to help take fish off the lines, etc. Captain Brandon did a great job to do his best to keep the boat in the best locations for catching fish. Overall, this was a wonderful first time experience deep sea fishing for us and was well worth the price! You definitely get more than you pay for! Thank you to the whole crew for everything!

    Response from Captain

    thank you very much for a great review. we are happy that you enjoyed your time with us and hope to see you again. as far as the fishing goes for some reason its been a little off for us the last few weeks. people are catching fish as you seen but the numbers have been down for us. our afternoon trip today was a great trip. weather was nice and the fishing was back to normal again !! that always helps !! thank you for your time on giving us a great review and also choosing us to fish the Gulf with !!

    I had a blast

    3/4 Day Trip (AM) – Shared2 adults

    Great trip! The crew was perfect, Capt Joe, Brandon (I can't remember the names of the other 2 (I am old and my memory escapes me at times). I caught plenty of fish so much that its fresh fish on the grill Sunday afternoon for wife, son and his wife. I would do it again (and will) in a heartbeat, though my preference are the 10 hour trips, so I will keep my eye open for the next 10 hour. I will however, when the weather cools down (Octoberish), do a 5 hour with my wife. She will enjoy the 5 hour. WMJ.

    Great day out on the water

    Half Day Trip (AM) – Shared2 adults1 child

    Super easy to book and crew kept you informed where to be and time to arrive. Everyone was super helpful and personable during the fishing trip - tons of dolphins going out and coming back which was awesome and seems like everyone caught a bunch of fish out there. Would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a day out especially if you have kids as it was very family friendly. They cleaned and packed the fish for you if you wanted to keep what you caught. Overall excellent experience my son had a blast.

    Reported catch:
    Mangrove Snapper

    Solid fishing trip for the price

    Half Day Trip (AM) – Shared2 adults

    I had a really fun time on this charter. The fishing was solid. We caught probably 30 grunt, 10 grouper and a mackerel trolling on the way home (total of all people in the boat). I personally only caught one fish which was a grouper but honestly it made the day. I’m sure you see a lot of people complain about not catching a ton of fish but that’s fishing. I’ve gone plenty of times back home and haven’t caught anything. My father in law and I had a good time and met good people. The captain and crew are good honest people. The fishing was slow today and they still stayed out there past the time limit trying to get people on fish, a lot of charters don't do that. This charter is good for people who may not have a ton of experience and are looking for something to do while on vacation. It’s just as good for people who know how to fish. For the price they offer it’s really a good deal.

    Reported catch:
    Gag Grouper
    Response from Captain

    Thank you. i can only park the boat over them. not sure what the problem is the last two weeks on the catching part however as you seen we dont give up that easy. you are correct. most boats would just give up and go home. thats not us. thank you for choosing us.

    Amazing Crew

    Half Day Trip (AM) – Shared2 adults1 child

    The crew was amazing and they tried different techniques from deep sea fishing to drifting very knowledgeable with their equipment to locate fish. They make sure that every Group leaves with something.. I went with my nine-year-old son. This was my second time on a charter and by far they exceeded expectations. From the start, they explained everything to everyone they walk around and assist you even make sure that my son left with a catch.. thank you so very much for your expertise and for making this trip amazing

    Response from Captain

    Thats great !! We like seeing kids enjoying fishing. From the look in his face you can tell he was happy catching fish. We try our best to make every trip enjoyable! I didnt have the chance to go out that day but I like that from your review they are doing a good job. They also love to fish themselves. Capt Brandon was only 3 months old when he took his first trip out on the Gulf. Before he turned 3 he was swinging the rod like a pro. Its funny at that age he could handle the rod better then talk! lol. thank you and your family for joining us and taking your time to write a very nice review !!

What's biting with Angler's Dream Fishing in St. Pete Beach

Ribolov na otvorenom moru se smanjuje, ali još uvek možete uloviti Tunu i Mahi Mahi, uz mogućnost da ulovite i Wahoo ili Sailfish. Priobalni ribolov za ribe koje žive pri dnu je kao i uvek obećavajući.

Gag Grouper season opens September 1 !!

avg 19, 2026 • St. Pete Beach
This year Gag grouper season opens up September 1 and ends October 1. The season for these hard fighting and one of the best eating grouper was only open one week last year and two weeks the year before so the fishing pressure has been next to ZERO !! We do catch them on our half days however this year we decided on doing two shared all day trips on Sept. 12 and 26 . We are only selling 27 spots for these trips so plenty of room to catch your fish of your dream. The price will include frozen and LIVE bait ! ( live bait will be as long as they last on the trip. our live well holds around 125 pinfish and 10 dozen live shrimp) Everything is included just take your food and drink. Bring back a memory of a life time !

Deep water trip

jul 8, 2026 • St. Pete Beach
We have a all day trip this Friday july 10. With the warmer temperatures out on the Gulf the larger fish move into deeper water. If you like to have a better chance of landing a larger fish or to take home a large stringer this is the trip to take. Best deal around to catch quality fish. Still have plenty of room. Book today !!

Water temps are getting back to normal and the fish are ready to feed ! If you never caught a gag grouper like this one now is the time to go. Season is closed on the gags however plenty of good eating reef fish just waiting for a bait. Red and scamp grouper are in season so you still have a chance at catching your own sandwich! Come try your skills on this great gag grouper fishing. No need to do a all day. They are thick now on our half day fishing grounds.
