CLEARWATER BEACH - VOTED BEST BEACH IN THE USA!

START YOUR DAY NEAR THE BEAUTIFUL BEACHES OF CLEARWATER FLORIDA!

Clearwater Beach, FL is our central launch point for Clearwater fishing charters along Florida’s Gulf Coast. 


We depart from the Seminole Street Boat Ramp on Clearwater Harbor, giving us fast access to the flats, mangrove shorelines, bridges, and passes that hold snook, redfish, speckled trout, tarpon, mangrove snapper, grouper, cobia, king and Spanish mackerel, and tripletail. With inshore and nearshore options and 2-, 4-, 6-, and 8-hour private trips (up to 6 guests), we tailor each charter to tides, season, and your goals—family-friendly to expert.

Running south through Clearwater Pass or north toward Caladesi Island and Honeymoon Island, we can sight-fish the flats, pitch live bait to docks and mangroves, or push nearshore to reefs and wrecks on longer trips. We provide premium Shimano spinning gear, bait and tackle, licenses, ice, and a comfortable, organized deck—so you can focus on the fun and the bite.

Launch location: Seminole Street Boat Ramp, Clearwater, FL


Primary waters: Clearwater Harbor • Clearwater Pass • Sand Key • Caladesi Island • North to St. Joseph Sound

Targets (seasonal): snook, redfish, trout, tarpon, mangrove snapper, gag/red grouper, cobia, king/Spanish mackerel, tripletail
Trips: 

  • 2 hr Inshore Fishing Trips
  • 4 hr Inshore and Nearshore Fishing Charters
  • 6 hr Clearwater Fishing Trips
  • 8 hr Full Day Fishing Charters

(private charters, up to 6 guests)


Why we launch in Clearwater:

  • Proximity to fish: Minutes to productive inshore flats and mangrove edges, with quick runs to nearshore structure on 6–8 hr trips.
  • Flexible routes: Work the tides inside Clearwater Harbor or slip through Clearwater Pass to chase seasonal mackerel, cobia, grouper, snapper. 
  • Easy access for visitors: Close to Clearwater Beach hotels, Sand Key, Dunedin, and Indian Rocks, with ample parking options and post-trip dining.
