If you haven’t yet experienced the thrill of fishing in Sarasota – get ready for a fishing trip of a lifetime! Paradise Fly Sport Fishing and Captain Chris Brackett invites your group to book an offshore Gulf of Mexico fishing trip and start creating memories… Captain Chris is one of the very few Captains that holds a Gulf of Mexico Federal Charter Reef and Pelagic Permits, allowing him to guide you more than 9 nautical miles into the Federal waters of the Gulf of Mexcio.

Paradise Sport Fly Sportfishing fishes every month of the year. Captain Chris will take you to where the fish are up to 100 miles offshore in the Gulf. If you’d like to try fishing offshore fishing, Captain Chris targets Sailfish, Kingfish, Snapper, Grouper, and much more. Fishing techniques include bottom fishing, drift fishing, jigging, spinning, trolling, and light tackle fishing. Ask Captain Chris about which technique you’d like to try! Capt. Chris’s Gulf of Mexico Federal Charter Reef and Pelagic Permit allows him to guide you into waters that experience the least amount of fishing pressure… Meaning bigger fish and a lot more action!

Chris to troll with multiple lines, get ready for double and even triple hook ups! We also have GPS, FishFinder, Radar, and all certified USGC safety equipment.
