2 Hour Kid's Trip

This trip is built specifically for families with young kids who want to get out on the water and experience saltwater fishing for the first time. Captain Marlin uses lighter tackle and targets calm, shallow areas with plenty of action — keeping the rods bending and the kids engaged from the moment you leave the dock.

The 2 Hour Kids Trip is one of our most popular charters and a favorite among families visiting the Clearwater and Clearwater area. It’s short enough to hold a child’s attention but long enough to put some real fish in their hands. Whether your kids are 4 or 14, Captain Marlin adjusts the trip to match their experience level and keeps things fun, safe, and hands-on the entire time.

What You Can Expect:

• Light tackle fishing in calm, protected inshore waters
• A variety of species including trout, redfish, sheepshead, black drum, and more
• Dolphins and other wildlife sightings are common along the way
• All rods, reels, tackle, and live bait provided — just show up and fish
• Captain Marlin handles all the rigging, baiting, and fish handling so the kids can focus on catching
• Fish cleaning available if you’d like to keep your catch

Who Is This Trip Best For?
This charter is perfect for families with young children, first-time anglers, or anyone looking for a quick but action-packed experience on the water.
