Afishionado Guide Servies 

Choose wisely! Few fishing guides provide Osborne’s level of customer service, expert instruction, and premium tackle to their clients. His 27 years of guiding full-time on Florida’s west coast have propelled him to be one of the top guides in the Tampa Bay region.

Experience world-class light tackle spin, fly, or plug inshore sportfishing for snook, redfish, seatrout, and more. Most charters are provided with spinning gear, but fly and baitcasting tackle are available upon request.

Whether Osborne is guiding one or six anglers to some of the world’s best inshore fishing, you’ll never catch him fishing or sitting on his butt. That’s because he’s too busy chumming, rigging, baiting hooks, and releasing fish.

Osborne prides himself on being the hardest-working fishing guide in the industry and remains on his feet tirelessly during your entire charter, making sure you have the very best fishing experience available.

You’ll be fishing in comfort aboard a custom-built 24’ Sheaffer boat with enough room for up to six anglers at any one time. There’s also a large fish box, a cooler for beverages, and a fighting chair (available upon request) for the mobility impaired.

When it comes to rods, reels, and terminal tackle, Osborne uses only the best. G-Loomis, Bull Bay, Sage, Tibor, Van Staal, and Penn are included in the price. All the needed fishing licenses for your trip are also provided.

You’re welcome to keep all legal species caught during your trip, and Osborne will fillet them at no extra charge.

Kids are encouraged, so feel free to make your lasting memories with Afishionado a family experience.

Note: Afishionado Guide Services also offers charters departing from Demens Landing in downtown St. Petersburg.
