Sarasota Bay's newest fishing
charter is veteran owned and operated by Master Captain
Bill Phillips. Master Captain
Bill Phillips has been fishing for 4
years in Sarasota, FL and
surrounding area. He operated a commercial fishing boat and now
currently has started his own fishing charter business.
SARASOTA, Fla., Dec. 3, 2022
/PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The iconic Skyway Bridge, which spans 25
miles across Tampa Bay, is one of
the best fishing spots in all of Florida! It is home to a large variety of
species and even the Gag grouper are known to make their way up the
ICW channel. Fishing near and crossing under the bridge by boat
many times gave Master Captain Phillips the idea of the name of his
fishing charter business Skyway Fishing Tours and actually use a
suspended bridge for his logo.
This new fishing charter took almost a year to start up. Just to
obtain the Master Captain credential, it took about 7 months
altogether; 4 months of Maritime school and about 3 months for the
Captains license to be issued by the U.S. Coast guard. Captain
Phillips has also obtained CPR certification, TWIC card, approval
for safety and suitability, DOT drug testing and towing
endorsement. Captain Phillips now holds every maritime credential
that can be held by a civilian. Purchasing the boat also took time
as Captain Phillips wanted a fishing machine. He found a 22 ft. Sea
Hunt 22X Pro - in mint condition (unsinkable) and he upgraded the
Garmin electronics to the latest gps/fishfinder on the market.
