The Flying Fish Team did a wonderful job. They were attentive, "on the fish" and overall it was a great experience. Family Friendly, cost effective way to get out on the water. I highly recommend them for your next fishing trip.

Super fun day! There were lots of gray snapper to be caught! We drove all the way from Cape Canaveral to visit family and jump on the flying fish fleet! We got beautiful pictures of Sarasota and the water and the beautiful buildings and it was a good quality family day!

Flying Fish Fleet gave our group of 20 a wonderful fishing experience! From the ease of booking to the friendly service, I’d recommend this company 100%! The staff on the boat was so efficient and knowledgeable. They were also very helpful! As soon as anyone would catch a fish, they were there to help you.
