Online Reservations

Reservations require a deposit: $200 for Offshore & Nearshore trips, $150 for Inshore & Shark trips, and $100 for all other excursions.

• Guest Capacity: Offshore & Nearshore trips accommodate 1–4 guests. Inshore trips accommodate up to 2 guests. In some circumstances, we can accommodate a 3rd guest on an Inshore trip, with a maximum of 2 guests fishing at a time. Please contact Captain Jeff prior to booking if you have a party of 3 for an Inshore trip.

• Please note that Redfish and Snook on our inshore charters are catch-and-release only. We can keep a few Trout, along with other species we may catch that are in season, such as Snapper, Sheepshead, Pompano, etc. If you're looking to bring home a larger quantity of fish for dinner, we recommend booking an offshore trip.

• Fishing regulations and harvest seasons vary throughout the year, and some species may be closed to harvest during certain times. If you have questions about what may be kept during your trip, please contact Captain Jeff.

• The captain reserves the right to postpone, reschedule, or cancel a trip due to weather, sea conditions, or other circumstances at his discretion. Trips canceled by the captain will receive a 100% refund.

• The captain will email you within 48 hours of your reservation with an itinerary that includes all of your trip details.

• Cancellation Policy: A full refund will be issued for cancellations made at least 14 days before the scheduled trip. Cancellations made within 14 days will result in the loss of the deposit. Cancellations made within 3 days of departure, as well as no-shows on the day of the charter, will be charged the full trip amount to the card used for the deposit.

• Things Not to Bring: Glass bottles, black-soled shoes, boots, firearms, illegal drugs, and aerosol sunscreen are not permitted aboard the boat.

• Cannabis/Marijuana: Cannabis is not permitted aboard the vessel, including medical marijuana. Although marijuana may be permitted under certain state laws, it remains prohibited under federal law. Because our offshore charters may operate in federal waters, cannabis is not allowed aboard the vessel even if you have a medical marijuana card or prescription/recommendation.

• GPS & Location Tracking Policy: GPS tracking devices of any kind are not permitted. Location services must be disabled on cell phones, smart watches, and other GPS-capable devices while fishing offshore.

Our offshore fishing locations are an important part of our livelihood. Many of these spots have been discovered, developed, and protected by Captain Jeff over more than 30 years on the water, and every effort is made to protect their locations.

If our system detects an active GPS tracking device during the trip, the charter may be terminated and the boat will return to port, with full payment for the trip still due. If you have any questions about this policy, please contact Captain Jeff before your trip. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

• Things to Bring: Drinks, snacks, a small cooler, hat, rain gear, sunglasses, and non-aerosol sunscreen. We recommend non-marking, white-soled shoes. If you're prone to motion sickness or aren't sure how you'll handle being offshore, consider taking Dramamine according to the directions on the package.

• Gratuity: Gratuity is not included in the trip price. A 20% gratuity is customary and always appreciated.

• Departure: Trips depart from Gasparilla Marina in Placida. Please arrive at least 15 minutes before your scheduled departure time.

• Questions: If you have any questions before your trip, please Contact Captain Jeff
