Captain Jason Prieto is your host at the promisingly-named Steady Action Charters. Jason specializes in light-tackle fishing in the Tampa and St Petersburg area for snook, tarpon, redfish, trout and cobia, and welcomes anglers of abilities.
Operating out of the Fishermen’s Village Marina, Captain Ralph Allen’s Kingfisher Fleet comprises two boats for deep-sea fishing in the Gulf of Mexico, alongside a selection of smaller boats for guided back bay fishing trips in the Charlotte Harbor Aquatic Preserve.
As the name would suggest, this resort and marina, located on Charlotte Harbor, Punta Gorda, is a longstanding favorite with visiting fishermen. Offering nightly or weekly accommodation options, along with waterfront dining and shopping, plus easy access to great fishing, it’s easy to see why. This is a great option for those travelling with non-fishing companions.
Captain Nick Angelo’s Shallow Water Fly Fishing Charters specialize in fly and light-tackle trips in Tampa Bay, Sarasota, St Pete, Homosassa and the Nature Coast. Redfish, tarpon, snook, sea trout, Spanish mackerel, cobia, mangrove snapper and grouper are all on the menu.
If you’re visiting the Naples area, you could do worse than join Captains Eric Alexander and Brandon Lawson aboard the Solo Lobo for a mixture of inshore and offshore fishing. Choose these guys and you’ll be fishing with the 2009 & 2010 Southwest Florida Choice Award winners.
