Captain Josh Kitchel has more than 15 years of experience fishing in Florida. He is a licensed captain in the state of FL. He is a Florida born raised native and has been fishing since he could hold a fishing rod!
He has always said waking up each day and being able to do what he loves is not called work, but a passion. His mornings catching bait on the tranquil waters of Sarasota bay, and being able to watch the sun come up is what he lives for.
Watching clients hook into a fight with a Snook, Redfish or even Tarpon is where his passion comes to life! He loves to teach and educate anyone who wants to learn about the local waterways and what Florida's beautiful coastline has to offer!

Tripletail can be found in Florida mostly in the spring, summer, and fall. The most challenging way to reel in this fish is by sight fishing, by searching for “floating” fish. This is especially around weed lines or a line of lobster or crab trap buoys. Experience sight fishing fast and furious!
