Rusty Bucket Charters creates an amazing fishing experience for you and your family or friends. Join Captain Russ, who believes that fishing isn’t just what you catch. It’s about spending time with your loved ones, learning a new skill, and having a first-hand insight into the world beneath the surface.

Capt. Russ loves showing people the basics of fishing and discovering the amazing seaworld to them. The fish that you target are not the only interesting inhabitants of the area. You can enjoy the scenery, see new types of birds and fish, or have fun on a local sandbar.

The trip takes place on “the Captain O”, a 24’ Sea Hunt boat. This center console has a perfect draw and size, just what it takes for stability on the open waters. She’s powered by a 250 HP Yamaha engine and has modern navigational equipment. The boat also features a private toilet and a T-top, to keep you in shade.

The list of fish you can catch is a long one. Some of them are Mahi Mahi, Tarpon, Snapper, Mackerel, Tuna, Barracuda, and Grouper. The crew is practicing sustainable fishing as much as they can, so they tend to release the catch. If you love the taste of fish, you can keep your catch in a quantity that’s enough for a meal.

Your fishing equipment, license, and fresh water are covered but you can always bring your own beverages and drinks.

Rusty’s Bucket Charters wants every guest to enjoy the trip to the fullest. The captain will show you how to set your bait, cast, and battle with fish. You just need to confirm the date.
