Book a guided fishing trip in Sebastian Inlet with Captain Richard. This family-friendly charter offers inshore and nearshore fishing for Snook, Redfish, Trout, Snapper, Tarpon, and more.
Trips include quality gear, local techniques, and hands-on guidance for beginners and experienced anglers. The captain uses tide, weather, and seasonal patterns to target productive fishing areas such as inlet mouths, bridges, flats, and nearshore reefs.
Fish aboard a fully equipped 2018 Avenger 26 bay boat with a 300HP Suzuki, Garmin electronics, trolling motor, power poles, and tower station. Its shallow draft and offshore capability allow access to both shallow water and reef fishing in the same trip.
Target species include Snook, Redfish, Spotted Seatrout, Snapper, Grouper, Mackerel, Sheepshead, Flounder, and Black Drum.
Book your Sebastian Inlet fishing charter today and fish with a captain who knows the local waters.
