Excellent Fishing Guide
Captain Bill is our trusted local fishing guide for the Bradenton, Sarasota, and the surrounding area. He has a newer boat with excellent knowledge on where to catch fish. He is a great person to spend the day with on the water. Highly recommended!
Tripadvisor Guest • January 2026Best Father’s Day Fishing!!!
Our Fathers Day fishing trip was excellent. Capt Bill and First Mate Nancy knew exactly where to find great fishing, and they were a real joy with my grandkids! We’ll be out in the Sarasota Bradenton waters again soon!
