What would you recommend to anglers fishing in Bradenton, Florida for the first time?

Captain was great. Wanted to troll for a while going out . He did everything I expected. And I've been deep sea fishing here for 15 years & he will be the captain I'll every use for all my future trips . As a matter of fact I booked him for another trip while still down here !!! 10 stars

It's a great time to go out. Snowbirds are leaving, and the kiddo's are still in school.

Find yourself a good captain and get out there! Captain Kirby was a great way to spend the afternoon out on the water!

Do it. It’s fun, relaxing and enjoyable to catch fish from a boat. I would recommend Captain Kirby.

Check weather conditions and try to get a day with low wind. Our captain was awesome but the wind wouldn't let us go out very far. Even the bigger boats around us were turning back.

Bring plenty of water and stay hydrated and don't forget the sunscreen. Weather in the summer can be unpredictable so dress accordingly.

Great area, beautiful waters, lots to see and fun boating fishing experience!!

If the Kingfish are biting I would go for them and they do taste pretty good fried

The captain makes a big difference, and late afternoon was the best in the first week of April.
