Offshore Deep Sea Charter fishing for Sarasota, Siesta Key and Longboat Key in the Gulf of Mexico, the home to some of the best charter fishing available anywhere. Sarasota is home to many calm sea days – which means excellent fishing more often. West Florida also offers the best grouper fishing, second to none. While there is an abundance of fishing available, you still have to know where to go to be on the fish and that's where Captain Brian's experience and knowledge is worth the trip.

We also offer night shark fishing charters. One of our shark catches was used in the movie JAWS. You’re probably used to viewing nature’s sharks from a safe, secure distance, with a sturdy glass casing between you, but have you ever seen one so close in person that you could actually touch the scaly skin of the sea’s most ferocious inhibitor (if you dared)? Now you can!  Be prepared to get messy...shark fishing takes time and strength, and it’s not an easy catch, but it sure is thrilling. Always taking place at night, nightime is the best time to catch a shark on the prowl.  It’s a constant game of yo-yo...catch the shark, reel it in, let it swim back out, reel it back in, again and again, until the shark tires.  I hope you have been doing your push-ups!  This adrenaline-packed adventure requires stamina and strength.  Have your camera ready, because once you reel this bad boy in, you only have seconds to snap a pic of this magical beast before releasing it back into the wild.  Come ready to have a good time.
