Welcome aboard:
I'm captain Erick Joseph, a full time fishing guide serving the waters of Lemon Bay and the surrounding waters of Charlotte Harbor.
As much as I love to fish, I also have a passion for nature and would love to spend the day with you and your family or friends, exploring Lemon Bay’s abundant wild life.
Lemon Bay is the smallest of the 5 Charlotte Harbor Aquatic Preserves. In 1986, it was designated as an aquatic preserve. Lemon bay is a long, narrow, shallow waterway that has two gulf passes and 7 tributaries flowing in.It's also home to Over 150 species of birds, 100 species of invertebrates, and 200 species of fish.
The Lemon Bay aquatic preserve consists of approximately 73 square miles. With this amount of water Lemon Bay is a tropical gem. The turquoise blue waters, the fascinating flora, and the abundance of wildlife will take your breath away.
I also offer Fishing in lemon bay trips its a wonderful experience that offers the Florida angler various inlets, bays, tidal creeks, beaches, grass flats, mangrove islands, oyster bars as well as often productive man made structures including bridges, docks, pylons and piers. This diversity allows fisherman to enjoy a unique experience as they fish for Snook, Redfish, Trout, among many other Florida species.
The Lemon Bay Eco Trip offers opportunity for everyone to explore Lemon Bay and learn about every aspect of its eco system. By navigating the boat in an around the mangrove islands, and oyster beds you will be able to get a close up look of the many species in their natural habitats. "Great opportunity to grab the camera and capture nature at its finest!"
We will explore the food chain starting with some of the smallest organisms, and eventually seeking out a large number of fish, fowl, and the always popular dolphin and manatee. You will get a good sense how to read the water, and to better understand the tides and ever changing conditions of Lemon Bay. You will learn to see the true, deeper beauty of Lemon Bay as experienced through the eyes of a Lemon Bay naturalist.
