Choose the charter that fits your day
An eight- or ten-hour trip gives us time to adjust to changing tides and fish movement. Start times vary with the fishing plan. If you have a shorter window, ask about a six-hour morning or afternoon charter.
Tell me about your group’s experience, where you are staying and any limits on your schedule. I have guided these waters since 1998 and will help you decide which option makes sense for your visit. Longer trips allow more time to work the conditions, although a catch is never guaranteed.
What your charter rate includes
Rods, reels, bait, tackle and fishing-license coverage are included. An onboard cooler and ice are provided as well. Bring food, drinking water and other beverages, along with sun protection and polarized sunglasses.
If you bring your own cooler, it must be small, soft-sided or collapsible, and able to fit below deck. Read the trip preparation and pickup information before your day on the water.
Reservations, cancellations and weather
A deposit is required to hold your charter date. Contact me with your preferred dates, group size and trip length so we can confirm the details before you reserve.
Cancel by March 1 for a full deposit refund. Cancellations after March 1 are charged, with credit available through the end of the same calendar year for an available date. Discuss the terms with Capt. Andy before booking.
The captain makes the final decision about weather cancellations or postponements. Your designated pickup dock and meeting time are confirmed directly before your trip.
Boca Grande, Charlotte Harbor and the Gulf beaches
Boca Grande is the main focus of these tarpon charters. The day may also take us into Charlotte Harbor or along the Gulf beaches as conditions allow. Browse the charter gallery and fishing photos to get a feel for the experience.
