Fishing in Longboat Key

Still not sure whether you’d like to fish inshore or offshore? Hop aboard a Longboat Key fishing charter and experience both in one trip! This barrier island shields the waters of the Sarasota Bay, separating them from the vastness of the Gulf of Mexico. This makes it a true fishing paradise, with various angling adventures right at its doorstep.

In the brackish waters of Sarasota Bay, you’ll find an abundance of inshore favorites including Tarpon, Snook, Redfish, and Jack Crevalle. For more of a mixed bag, head to the reefs and wrecks for Amberjack, Cobia, Snappers, and Grouper. And, if you’re an offshore enthusiast, the Gulf Stream will bring you Wahoo, Tuna, and Mahi.

For anglers staying in the bay, half day excursions give you enough time to hook more than just a few beautiful fish. If offshore fishing is the name of your game, you can book a half day trip and spend your time bottom fishing and trolling. For deep sea adventures, full day expeditions are the way to go.

Although excellent fishing spots can be found all over the island, most Longboat Key charters are located in Millar Bay. Providing boats with plenty of protection from the waves, the bay is dotted with piers and docks for vessels of all types. The area near Longboat Pass is also a great starting point for both inshore and offshore trips.

Правила и положения

If you’re fishing with a licensed charter, all the necessary licenses will be taken care of for your entire group. Also, in addition to expert advice, your captain will provide you with relevant information on bag limits and harvesting regulations.

Longboat Key – сезоны

Январь

Your time in January is best spent in Sarasota Bay, targeting anything from Sheepshead and Tripletail to Snappers and Trout. The Grouper bite is excellent as well.

Февраль

The Red Grouper season is over, but there are plenty of fish in the sea. Take your pick from Black Drum, Bluefish, and Trout, or head further out to chase Hogfish, Black Grouper, and a variety of Snapper.

Март

As the temperatures are rising, so is the fish activity – and in March, the action is certainly getting hotter. King Mackerel and Jack Crevalle are biting, Spotted Seatrout, Redfish, and Tripletail are right behind.

Апрель

With Snook and Tarpon roaming the flats, along with Redfish, Trout, and Spanish Mackerel, there’s plenty to do on the bay in April. Offshore, Bonito, King Mackerel, and Cobia are there for the taking.

Май

Permit, Jack Crevalle, Tarpon, Snook, Snapper, Cobia, Bonito – they’re all in the cards, just take your pick. Sailfish are slowly coming back, and Blackfin Tuna fishing is very good.

Июнь

The Red Snapper season is a go! These beauties are going to be all the craze in June, along with their Mutton, Yellowtail, Lane, and Mangrove cousins. All fun to catch, all delicious!

Июль

The offshore fun and games are in full swing in July, with all the greats on your to-catch list, including Sailfish, Mahi Mahi, Red Snapper, Groupers, Hogfish, Blackfin Tuna, and so many more.

Август

Even though the Red Snapper season has ended, intense fishing continues! It’s a great time to go after Tarpon, Permit, Snook, or Jack Crevalle, or alternatively, set your sights on Tuna, Bonito, and Mahi Mahi.

Сентябрь

Whether it’s Black, Gag, or Red Grouper you’re after, September is the month to find your record catch. Closer to shore, Black Drum and Redfish are biting left and right, and Jack Crevalle and Permit aren’t far behind.

Октябрь

It’s getting windy on the water and the weather is a bit unpredictable, but that won’t stop you from having a great time catching Redfish, Spotted Seatrout, and Black Drum or King Mackerel, Cobia, and more.

Ноябрь

This is a very good time to go on a Snook hunt, and maybe hook some Trout, Redfish, Jack Crevalle, and Trout along the way. Snapper and Grouper fishing is still more than decent.

Декабрь

With the New Year around the corner, why not give yourself a day on the water? Sarasota Bay will provide you with great fishing for Sheepshead, Mackerel, Snapper, and Jack Crevalle.

Just remember it is called fishing and not catching. We had caught a bunch of fish, just not the “monster” the captain was after.

It was very hot and that limited the type of fish that were biting, but we had plenty of grouper and yellow tail biting.

Did a half day charter with Captain JD and left wishing we did a full day. The time flew by as he’s a fantastic Captain who knows where the fish are, and he’s a class act, just a pleasure to fish with. I’ve done a number of charters over the years and he’s top of the list. I would highly recommend.

Captain JD very knowledgeable about the ocean and wildlife in general. He was very determined to put us onto the fish we caught a great amount of kingfish and he recommended a great place to bring it to eat after we caught the fish who will cook it to your liking. We recommended and will be booking him again in JUNE when we return!

The Captain knows his waters and knows his fish! We had four people and he was able to keep us fishing the whole time. Even though Mother Nature decided to challenge us with a windy day causing drift, we still managed bring home lots of grunts and snapper. Not to mention all the sea life we saw and cool fish we caught but couldn't keep (grouper, lizard fish, sea robin, and squirrels)! Fun time had by all, thanks Captain Atkins.

Fantastic Trip! We took our 8 & 12 year old out boat fishing for the first time and they had an absolute blast. Caught a ton of fish. Captain JD was excellent with the kids, helped everyone enjoy their time, and cleaned our keepers for us! Kids rated it a 10/10 and we couldn’t agree more! Will book again soon.

We had a great time with JD today! He got us on fish and did what he could to keep us in our toes the whole trip. My 10 year old son told me this was the highlight of our vacation. Great time and would recommend to others!

My wife, our two young adult kids and I fished with captain Steve from a pier in the Longboat Key/Anna Maria Island area. We had an awesome experience. We all caught fish with the guidance and support of Captain Steve. He is very experienced, patient and personable. He is also a good teacher. We highly recommend his fishing outings. We will be going out with him again in the near future.

Coach Steve put together a great shore based trip. We wanted to know how to fish the local waters, Coach Steve was very knowledgeable and shared a the basics so that we could apply to future trips in the area.
