The waters around Sarasota offer some of the best year-round fishing in Florida. Here's what to know before your trip:

• Seasonal Fish: Summer brings strong grouper and snapper action offshore. Spring and fall are peak for king mackerel and mahi. Winter delivers amberjack and sheepshead.
• Launch Point: We operate out of the 10th Street Boat Ramp, one of the area’s most convenient and well-maintained marinas, with quick access to the Gulf.
• City Ordinances: Sarasota enforces strict manatee protection zones and idle-speed requirements within Sarasota Bay. Offshore departures must maintain no-wake speeds until clear of these zones.
• Weather Considerations: Summer afternoons often see pop-up storms, so we aim for morning departures when seas are calmer and fishing is hot.
