Diehard fisherman, simple basic boat that he also fishes commercially from, a 33' CC with two 250 out boards. Does not fish with a mate, unless you tell him you need one. He KNOWS where the fish live, and he will burn the gas to get to them!!! Nice guy as well!!! fishgaloreoffshore is his charter business name. Up North, Tarpon Springs, Hubbards Marina has partyboats that have all day and longer trips, some out to the middle grounds. I have heard some good things about them, never done their trips. Another charter that I forgot about who also does open boat trips is The Hog Hunter, Capt. Bob Breton, also out of Venice. More comfy boat than Capt. Joe, and he uses a mate. Always my choice if Capt. Joe is not available. Have fun!!!

Risk of being redundant, Flying Fish fleet does a nice job for a party boat out of downtown Sarasota. Also have been using Capt Joe from Fish Galore for several years now. Great fisherman who you won't be disappointed spending the extra money on to go with. Tell him Sharky in PA says hello when/if you go.
