Tony Zain

Member since December 2014 Anna Maria, United States
Background
Captain Tony Zain first started fishing with his grandpa in Northern Michigan at the age of 5. After personally testing virtually all of the most celebrated hotspots in the US, he finally settled down in what he considers to be the ultimate fish heaven – the Tampa Bay waterways. Capt. Tony has had the privilege to guide fishing charters in many places throughout the country, and fishing in the bay area is by far his favorite!
Techniques
We like to utilize the lightest tackle possible to catch all of the game fish in the offshore waters of Miami. Drifting live and dead bait, bottom fishing and trolling are our preferred techniques. Light spinning rods are used for everything except trolling.

Fantastic October Fishing!
Fantastic October Fishing!
Oct 12, 2022 Ana Maria
Fishing is as good as it gets right now off of Anna Maria Island. Thankfully the Island sustained little damage after the hurricane and the fishing is fantastic! Cooler temps are bringing lots of Spanish Mackerel, Jacks, Sharks and Snapper onto the nearshore wrecks and beaches. Inshore the Snook bite is on fire with a few Redfish mixed in. From now until Thanksgiving the fishing should be great with Litte Tunny Tuna and King Mackerel starting to show in a couple weeks.

Fishing is great right now when the winds cooperate. But make sure to dress warm. We have had a very cold Winter this year. Bottom fishing has been great around 8 miles offshore for a variety of good eating fish. And in the bay we have been catching plenty of bonnet head sharks!

Winter Fishing Is Here!
Winter Fishing Is Here!
Dic 3, 2020 Ana Maria
Winter fishing is here. The cold weather has arrived a little early this year, and this means we will be concentrating on bottom fishing unti March when the water gets back into the 70's. This is a great time of year to catch tasty fish in large numbers as long as the winds stay down. Anytime we can make it out to the natural ledges 6-8 miles offshore we will have a chance to catch Porgies, Grunts, Snappers, Sheepshead, Hogfish, and Black Drum on our half day trips.

Great Fall Fishing
Great Fall Fishing
Nov 19, 2020 Ana Maria
Fishing is great right now when the weather cooperates. We have had lots of wind the past couple of weeks, but when we get out in between the fronts the fishing is great. Lots of sharks, spanish mackerel, and a huge variety of bottom fish. We have been catching Key West grunts, lane snappers, porgies, and a few keeper grouper around 7 miles offshore. Sharks and mackerel have been biting in Tampa Bay and on the Beach. Once we get a few more cold fronts the fishing will turn to almost exclusive bottom fishing over the next few months. Winter can be a great time of year to load up the cooler with tasty reef fish!

Great Fall Fishing!

Bottom fishing was great with some rare near shore red grouper and lots of snapper. Our first cold front of the year is here today! The fishing for Spanish Mackerel, Kingfish and Sharks have really turned on. Most of these fish are within 3 miles of the beach. If you love lots of action close to shore this is the time of year to book a trip! #skywaysportfishing
