Relax, sit back, and leave everything to me. When you figure out the costs of renting a quality boat, plus paying for gas, oil, and bait etc., along with lugging your tackle around and the hassle of not knowing where to fish... it is much better to hire a professional fishing guide. I guarantee you'll have a great time.

Remember, fishing is supposed to be fun. Join me for a great experience that you'll never forget! You're welcome to bring your own tackle, but I realize it can be a hassle now. I do provide quality fishing outfits for free.

Here we go with the rates for one or two anglers...

1/2 day (4 hrs.) $375.00

3/4 day (6 hrs.) $450.00

All day (8 hrs.) $550.00

Tarpon trips (4 hrs./ either morning or evening) $400.00, (8 hrs.) $575.00 (Trips include live bait.) All trips generally start at 7:30 or noon, and 4:30 in the afternoon for an evening tarpon trip.

A third person is $75.00 for the half and three quarter day trip, and $100.00 for the full day.

If you are fishing with a child under 12 years old, this fee may be waived if they behave. I'm the judge on that call! ;)

Deposits: A $150.00 per trip deposit is required. Deposits will be returned in full if a minimum of at least 30 days notice of cancellation is received by telephone or E-Mail.

Regarding weather conditions... I am not going to take you out in threatening or really nasty weather, and your deposit will be returned if dangerous weather conditions occur. Those that fished with me before know I am very honest when it comes to refunding if the weather is nasty. Wind is fine, but thunderstorms, gale force winds etc... not me.

Multiple guide boats... If you need an additional boat or two, I'll arrange that for you free of charge.
