CHARTERS

Not cheap, probably setting you back $500 or so for a half day charter, but find a good Captain and it’s worth every dollar.

Local tackle shops can provide good recommendations, but below are two Captains we’ve personally used with great success.

Both have modern boats, provide good quality bait and equipment, are local to Holmes Beach, care about creating memorable experiences for their clients and will clean/filet fish at the end of the trip (where permitted).
