Anna Maria Island 
Fishing Charter

We also offer our fishing charter services on Anna Maria Island


sarasota inshore fishing

We pick up clients at the Kingfish boat ramp located right next to the Anna Maria Bridge, just off Manatee Avenue. To the south we use Coquina beach park boat ramp right next to the Longboat Key Bridge, which connects Bradenton beach to Longboat Key. We can arrange to pick up at any condo association or house that has water access and a boat dock as well. We can accommodate up to 6 guests on our charters. You will be fishing aboard our brand new 2020 T-Craft with all the necessary features to give us the best opportunity at catching fish no matter what the conditions bring for the day. It is comfortable for up to 6 passengers. The boat is equipped with a 200 HP Yamaha outboard to get us to the fish quickly. It also has a tower to help spot the fish, a trolling motor to quietly sneak up on them, and two bait wells to be able to carry more than enough live bait for a full day of fishing. We use this boat on both our inshore fishing charters in the bay & off the beaches, and also for our near shore adventures out in the Gulf of Mexico up to 9 miles. The boat allows us to get into the shallow grass flats to target the snook and redfish and also handles the chop in the open bay and the gulf to get to where we need to be to catch fish!

Anna Maria Island Vacation Spot and things to do



Anna Maria Island is a great vacation spot and has some of the best beaches on the west coast of Florida. There are also great restaurants to eat at on the island such as the Sandbar, located right on the edge of the beach. At the end of the day I will fillet fish that were kept and you can bring it the the Seafood Shack just over the Cortez bridge where they will prepare your fish for you! Fishing is world class year round in Sarasota Bay, Tampa Bay, and the Gulf of Mexico all very short boat rides from Anna Maria Island. We can get to Tampa bay or Sarasota bay in a matter of minutes or use Longboat pass to get into the Gulf of Mexico quickly. In the Gulf of Mexico we target: tarpon, permit, king mackerel, Spanish mackerel, tripletail, grouper, snapper, sharks, and much more! We use quite a few different fishing techniques including bottom fishing with live and dead bait, and also trolling with lures and live baits. In Sarasota bay and Tampa Bay we target: snook, seatrout, redfish, tarpon, sheepshead, snapper, grouper, jack crevelle, ladyfish, Spanish mackerel, and more! Make sure to ask what is being targeted and in season if you are looking to fish for something specific!
