Anna Maria Tarpon teaming - It is the middle of Tarpon season and they are cooperating very well. Schools of a hundred tarpon are in the passes and beaches. Hookups of 10 or more a day are not uncommon more... Capt. Tom Chaya - Anna Maria
Anna Maria Reef fishing - Go to any hard bottom or reef and the kingfish will be hitting. Long chumlines will get them in and you can also chum up gag grouper and mangrove snapper. Great time of year for lots of species. more... Capt. Tom Chaya - Anna Maria

Anna Maria Sheepshead Unbelievable - We probably had our best day of sheepshead fishing in 30 years. One charter caught 62 on a half bay. They kept just 8 for their cooler. All fish were over 20 inches and the biggest was just over 9 pounds more... Capt. Tom Chaya - Anna Maria
Anna Maria Trout excellent - Trout fishing really picked up as the water temperatures bumped up a bit. Nice big trout up to 26 inches were eating big shrimp and jigs on grass in 3-6 feet. Sheepshead were also ready to spawn and were moving into 20 feet of water more... Capt. Tom Chaya - Anna Maria

Anna Maria Trout fishing - Our best bet with the colder inshore tempratures is to target trout. Nice fat trout are in deep hole and are hiting on gulp jigs. Also good grouper bite in 40 feet off Longboat Key. more... Capt. Tom Chaya - Anna Maria
