I have been a guide for over
20 years, I make my living full
time as a fishing guide 100%.
I spend my time on the water not at my
other job.
I offer high quality guided fishing charters that only few in the
business can offer from my boats, to my tackle, to the caliber of my
trips
To Book A Charter Call 941-769-1582 or email
captandy@gofishcharters.com
Rate is per boat, per trip, for the boat four anglers maximum. If there will be the more than 4
anglers in your party, the only way is by splitting the party into
multiple boats. In that case, the rate would apply to each boat.
Don't let another guide tell you it will be alright or fun to pack
you on his boat with him and 5 anglers, it will be crowded and his
boat will be overloaded, something that I am not willing to risk!
April-September Is Tarpon Fishing Season and during this time I
exclusively fish for tarpon.
Do not let another guide take you on a tarpon charter only to end up
back on the flats trout fishing. I have heard time after time, from
clients, that hired a guide to take them tarpon fishing, only to be
told sorry the tarpon just aren't in, well let me say if you heard
that in these months, you hired the wrong guide.

The rate includes everything but food and
drink (I do keep plenty of ice and water on board). If there will be the more
than 4 anglers in your party, the only way is by splitting the party
into multiple boats. In that case, the rate would apply to each
boat. Don't let another guide tell you it will be alright or
fun to pack you on his boat with him and 5 anglers, it will be
crowded and his boat will be overloaded, something that I am not
willing to risk! And as a side note the area with largest
congregation of tarpon has a 3 lines only from a boat state law in
affect during the tarpon season, so only 3 people are allowed to
fish form a boat by Florida State Law.
All Charters Include The Following : Florida fishing license is
provided as well as all bait and tackle. There is an on board cooler
with ice and water for you convenience, and any fish being taken to
eat will be cleaned and bagged.
You will be fishing from a new Skeeter Boat 300hp Four stroke motor, with ample front
and rear fishing platforms, this boat is one of only a few in the
area that can access the shallowest of areas, as well as cross the
harbor while keeping you dry and stable. Your tackle is
Shamino Tallaus Rods and Saragossa Reels
replaced yearly so my clients Know that tackle failure is at its
absolute minimum rigged and ready. I personally lay it on the line
very few in this business offer the quality and cleanliness of my
equipment. All tarpon tackle
is high end spinning reels and composite rods, or Stand up
Conventional Combo, also new every year.
I feel that hiring a guide is an important decision and
