Charter Fishing Trips

Want To Experience Offshore Fishing?

Join us for a PRIVATE FISHING CHARTER TRIP! We have something for everyone. Our 4-hour trips give you a chance to get out on the beautiful waters off of Clearwater Beach where you can experience bottom fishing on wrecks and reefs, as well as trolling for mackerel and kingfish if it is the right time of year! Our longer trips get you into the deeper water, where the temperature is cooler and the bigger fish like to hang out on the rocky bottom. The extended day trips really increase your chances of catching the big keeper fish everyone is bragging about back at the dock! You catch them, we’ll clean them at the dock. Take your catch home or hang with us at the beach, as many local restaurants are happy to cook them up for you while you enjoy our famous sunsets. #redgrouper #gaggrouper #redsnapper #hogfish and some many more!

nearshore Trip

Half-Day (4 & 5 Hours)

Cast your line and catch your next meal on a half-day fishing trip out of Clearwater Beach Marina. Departing the dock in the morning and early afternoon, this 4-hour excursion can suit any schedule. This trip is great for those that want to get out on the water for a few hours of fishing. No experience needed! Depending on the time of year, likely catches are grunt, porgies, black sea bass, red & gag grouper, mangrove snapper, Spanish mackerel, and kingfish. Check out our fishing reports for the latest on what is in season.

Starting at $850.

Offshore Trip

3/4 Day to Full Day (6 & 8 Hour)

Popular trips for those that want a chance to drop on a keeper grouper or snapper! The bigger fish like the cooler rocky bottoms and giving yourself a little more time to head out farther and deeper tips the odds in your favor. Typical departure for longer trips is early morning, although the 6-hour trip does have a mid-day departure option for late risers! Our Captain and mate are onboard to assist as much or as little as you’d like, so our experienced anglers can go it alone and if it’s your first-time fishing don’t worry, we’ve got you every step of the way! Both our boats are built for safety and comfort, with plenty of fishing space on the back decks, air-conditioned cabins and working bathrooms. Depending on the season, likely catches are red & gag grouper, red snapper, grunt, porgies, vermillion snapper, and cobia. Our fishing reports come out regularly and provide the lasted information on what is being caught offshore, so check them out for the last catches!

Starting at $1195.

Offshore Extended Trip

Extended Full-Day (10 & 12 Hour)

Eight hours just not long enough? We get you. The 10 and 12-hour trips are especially popular in the summer months when the big fish have run to deeper, cooler waters. We’ll push off the dock early, typically 6:00 AM, and steam for about ninety minutes to arrive to our first rocky bottom drop. You’ll typically get 7-9 hours of fishing time, depending on your total trip length.  These trips are usually packed full of experienced anglers, but that is not a requirement! The Stella Fishing crew is onboard to assist all day, and help you bring in a haul to write home about. Our boats have spacious fishing decks, air-conditioned cabins, and bathrooms, to make long trips even a little more awesome.  We are typically targeting different types of groupers including red and gag grouper, red snapper, vermillion snapper, amberjack, cobia, and of course, it wouldn’t be Clearwater Florida if we didn’t show back up at the dock with a pile of grunt and porgies. Check out of latest fishing reports or follow us on Instagram to see the latest catches!

Starting at $1995.

Overnight offshore Trip

(24-hour+)

Call to inquire about your personalized overnight fishing charter adventure tailored for your keeper and big game fish wish list. You will have approximately 16-18 hours of actual fishing time (if you don’t sleep). This is truly a fishing adventure of a lifetime. Let us know what you and your group dream of catching and we’ll take you where you have the greatest chance of success. The famous Middle Grounds are known for huge keeper grouper, snapper, amberjack, wahoo, blackfin tuna, mangrove snapper and mahi-mahi.  Please call to inquire well in advance as these trips take extra planning and some fish are seasonal.

Sunset Trolling Trip

3 Hours | Summer Only!

It’s the best of both worlds, get your fishing on and enjoy the famous Clearwater Beach sunset! The summer months bring in the Spanish mackerel and kingfish, which are perfect for trolling and both fun to catch. If you’re lucky, you’ll snag a 15-pound kingfish just offshore. So, hold on to your pole because they have plenty of fight in them! This trip is the perfect length for groups that have a few folks that may not be sure they love fishing. Great for groups that want to get out on the Gulf of Mexico, fish, enjoy the sunset and maybe even see a few dolphins in the wake on the way back to the dock.

Starting at $850.

Evening Predator Trip

3 Hours | Summer Only!

You’ll fish for sharks during the warmer months, late spring through summer. These 3-hour evening trips are a reel scream! Sharks are strong and powerful swimmers, which is why the sport has become so popular amongst Florida’s anglers. Off Clearwater Beach, we have a variety of common sharks that feed inshore and near shore such as bull, bonnet head, nurse, lemon, and black tip sharks just to name a few. These fish will test the limits of you and your gear! Don’t take our word for it. Come experience it for yourself!

Starting at $850.
