Description

Experience and explore backwaters of the Sarasota Bay! Always a short distant and boat ride to great fishing in Sarasota Inlet and Lido Key. Enjoy fishing one of the most popular areas in Sarasota, with a unique ecosystem, found right near downtown. Fishing is great all year round, and there is such diversity of areas that even on windy days there are plenty of places to fish. Among the Bay, you can fish one of the many barrier islands, and hundreds of miles of backcountry water shoreline, making this a trip to truly enjoy. When you are visiting Sarasota, FL, our visitors also enjoyed Marie Selby Botanical Gardens or the Siesta Key Rum Distillery. You can also visit the many history museums such as The Ringling.  Booking with confidence on TripAdvisor, it makes this charter an easy, reliable and enjoyable decision.

Best fishing trip ever!

My granddaughter wanted to catch tripletail, so I booked this trip. Well worth every penny. On the way back we were informed there were some mangrove snapper that had been spotted. I had a very happy granddaughter. I would highly recommend this company for trips. Everyone was very pleasant and helpful. and a lot of thanks to Captain Nick for making 240 minutes wonderful.

Operator response

That’s what it’s all about—one happy granddaughter and a mission accomplished! 😄 Captain Nick will love hearing he made those 240 minutes so special. Tripletail *and* a snapper bonus on the way back… not a bad day at all. Thanks for the recommendation 🎣

family friendly fishing trip

We had a great day with Captain Todd! Since he is a local, he was very knowledgeable and had lots of history to give us about the area. He was especially sweet with my fish-loving six year old. We all had a great time and would do it again!

Operator response
