Got some buddies that I work with, that are wanting to charter a boat for a day of H&L out in the gulf. Any recomendations? I think they want 4-6 people and thats it! no 50 person head boats...

Ed walker on this site if they don't mind driving a bit north.

If they want to stay local, a friend of mine, Tommy Markam, runs a 30 foot Sabalo out of Hamlin's landing near Indian Rocks beach. His number is 727-410-6094, Simply Hooked charters.

Good luck.

I dont know any in your area, but I agree, a 6 pack charter is the way to go. You are in a faster boat usually, and you get a custom fishing experience. Make sure they are going to use live bait, they will do so much better. The head boats (50 people) usually use cut squid, and drift.

Thanks Keith, I will give them the number. They are wanting to stay local to the ST pete area.
