What Kind of Fish Will We Catch

The warm waters around Anna Maria Island are a paradise for so many species of fish. You may catch sea trout, redfish, snook, tarpon, sheepshead, mangrove snapper, grouper, and more. It just depends on the season and time of year (although some fish like redfish and speckled trout can be caught year round). 

What Do I Need to Bring For My Anna Maria Island Fishing Charter? 

For a day on the water it is important to bring:

  • Suncreen
  • Sunglasses
  • Hat or Visor
  • Any Drinks or Snacks You Want
 
If you are looking for some tips from someone who spends every day on the water, we suggest: 

Wide Brim Hat or Visor – Hats provide their own source of shade. If you are going to wear a wide brim hat, it is a good idea to wear one with a chin strap as it can get windy when traveling from spot to spot while we fish. I personally like wearing a tennis visor. They breath better, are lighter, and work well with my fishing buff – but lots of people fish with wide brim hats. 

Fishing Buff – Hey, are you going to look cool wearing a fishing buff? No, but you will look like a pro out there on the water. A good buff will provide you ultimate sun protection and help you avoid wind burn as well. You won’t be alone out on the water with your BUFF, that we can promise you. Anglers and outdoor enthusiasts of all activities are now wearing a neck gaiter (BUFF), sometime instead of using sunscreen. 

You can find endless color choices and patters at the BUFF store on Amazon.com

UV Hoodie – More and more anglers are adopting UV protective hoodies for all day fishing. New technology allows for these hoodies to be incredibly lightweight and offer excellent UV protection at the same time. If you want to keep your hoodie for other outdoor activities – maybe go with the Simms. But if you truly love fishing – go with the HUK!

UV Projection Pants – Yes, you can wear shorts with sunscreen and many people opt for shorts on our fishing charters. But now may be the time to discover something the fly fishing community has known for years – UV Fishing Pants. 

You can get an inexpensive pair from KastKing on Amazon

Or if you can stretch a little bit, HUK makes excellent fishing pants.
