Seafood Charters: Anna Maria Island Fishing Charters — Local services in South Bradenton

We booked a fishing charter with Captain Keith for the second day of our weeks vacation, we were going to a new area that we had never been to before so I did a little research and like the reviews I read. Needless to say he did not disappoint!!!! This man loves to fish, knows how to fish, is an expert on the area that he has lived his whole life. The two most important things that made him stand out more than any other Captain that I have ever charted with was his personality, and getting us on fish constantly. His Patients with kids is second to none, was awesome at knowing how to make kids feel like they’re doing a great job, he never got irritated and has unbelievable patience. If Fishing slowed down at one location he would simply say time to move to another spot. He gave 100% from the moment he picked us up, Tell we said our goodbyes. My kids had such a blast that they actually begged us to use some of their savings account and book him one more time before we went home and we did!!! The second trip was even better than the first( hard to imagine that it could’ve gotten any better ) and we landed three goliath grouper‘s! Caught dozens of different species and lots of them and brought home a quality amount of fresh fish each trip. We are a Fishing family from the Midwest, and we are getting ready to reserve another house on Anna Maria Island for next year, because we like the area but specifically because we found the captain that we know is going to be top tier, and can’t wait to get back next year. 10 stars and highly recommend this captain...

I was recently tasked with finding a fishing charter for a large group of folks, for my wife's work crew. I did a lot of research beforehand, and decided to call Captain Keith with Seafood Charters. From our first conversation, he was very welcoming, informative, and accommodating. I explained that we'd have roughly 10-12 people looking to fish, and he assured me that would be no trouble, he'd have another boat or two available with qualified captains to help as well. We actually ended up having 8 of us make the trip, so we still used two boats. Keith took fantastic care of us from start to finish! We were on fish all day. If the action slowed a bit, he was coming up with a plan to hit a new spot and find more action. We caught a huge variety of fish, and those of us that decided on our personal target species were able to catch those specific fish as well! At the end of the day, he cleaned the ones we were able to keep, and bagged them up for us. Of the 8 of us that went fishing, there was not a single negative word from anyone, and the trip was the topic of conversation for the weekend, with everyone still being excited about every detail! If you're looking for a charter in the Anna Maria Island area, don't look any farther than Captain Keith McGlade with Seafood Charters! I'm already planning my next trip for the...

Went on a 6hr trip w captain Keith, day began by him asking what we wanted to catch. Bucket list included Amberjacks, red grouper, and snapper. After a run to 37miles out. He put us right on Aj's. Caught and released 6 in about an hour. Next had fun with a large barracuda. Ran out some more, and in no time, had 3 large red grouper in the box. 15/ 20 pounders. Kept trying to get my sons second grouper, but he caught 3 huge red snapper instead. Out of season, so had to be released. Next stop, 20 Vermillion Snappers, all 1/3 pounders. Many more big fish on, but eaten be either Goliath grouper, or sharks 🦈. Last great catch, about a 7ft possible lemon shark. With combined effort of my son and I, 30 minutes later. A perfect release at the boat. Fantastical day. Keith is the perfect captain. Extremely knowledgeable and created a fishing experience the 2 of us will never forget. I happen to be a Florida native, even a Anna Maria kid, Who's grandparents owned twin 65 foot charter boats. Father was a captain, so I know a great deal about the industry. I will recommend captain Keith to everyone I know. A ❤ felt thanks for lasting memories as well as some very special eating...
