👑🎣 THE KINGS ARE COMING TO CLEARWATER! 🎣👑
We just need the Gulf to cool down a little. 😂

That's part of fishing—and especially part of targeting a migratory fish like King Mackerel.

Water temperature, bait, weather, sea conditions and the movement of the fish all determine what happens on any given day.
Our job is to watch those conditions, find the bait, find the fish, and give our guests the best opportunity possible. Some days they're exactly where we expect them to be. Other days, the Gulf has different plans. That's fishing.

As the water begins to cool and bait starts stacking up along the Clearwater coast, we'll start seeing one of our favorite fall visitors—King Mackerel.
Sportsman Charters is now booking dedicated Clearwater Kingfish Charters for the upcoming fall migration.
⚡ Explosive strikes
🎣 Screaming drags
🐟 Hard-fighting King Mackerel
🚤 Private charter — just your crew
4 Hours — $650
⭐ 6 Hours — $850 — Recommended
8 Hours — $1,050
Fishing licenses, rods, tackle and bait are included.
And while no captain can guarantee a particular fish will bite, we can guarantee we'll put in the work.
We'll be watching the water temperatures, bait movement and Gulf conditions closely. When the kings make their move, we'll be ready.
