Depending on the season and the weather conditions, you can go fishing up to 50 miles offshore, inshore in the Sarasota Bay, nearshore, the reefs, wrecks, and flats. The well-trained and experienced crew is very familiar with the methods that work best for the local waters, including bottom fishing, light and heavy tackle, drift fishing, trolling, and spinning.

You can choose between traveling up to 150 miles offshore to catch Swordfish, Marlin, Mahi Mahi, and Wahoo, or staying local and fishing for Grouper, Snapper, Barracuda, and Amberjack. There’s also the option of going on a Pelagic Monster adventure. This action-packed, catch and release specialty trip is focused on catching big fighters including the legendary Goliath Grouper and Sharks. These monsters will amaze you!

Trips aboard Paradise Fly Sport Fishing run throughout the year. Cast your line in the mangrove and flats around Sarasota or head up offshore. Inshore waters are home to Snook, Tarpon, Speckled Trout, Redfish, and Sharks. During Tarpon and Snook season (from May to August), you can even try night trips! On the other hand, fishing offshore is a chance to catch Sailfish, Kingfish, Snapper, Grouper, and much more.

You’ll have your pick of legendary inshore and offshore fish. Stay in shallower water and you’re bound to be hooking Tripletail, Redfish, Snook, Snapper, and Sheepshead all day long. Offshore fishing fanatics will have their needs covered too! Plenty of Mahi Mahi, Grouper, King Mackerel, and Blackfin Tuna make for a day of rod-bending action.
