Enjoy a fun day on the water and create lovely fishing memories together with Kesten Charters. Captain Connor Kesten is a seventh-generation Manatee County resident and second-generation fishing captain following in his father’s footsteps. He can take you to inshore and nearshore waters as well as flats and the backcountry, all full of many different species to catch. He’s waiting in Holmes Beach to take you on a true fishing adventure in Florida.

The vessel you’ll use is a 24’ Skeeter Sx240 bay boat that can accommodate 4 guests. With its 300 HP Yamaha engine along with modern navigation electronics, the boat will quickly and safely take you to the fishing grounds. The boat also comes with a wireless trolling motor, livewell, and ice-box.

Most of the year, Captain Connor mainly targets Snook, Redfish, and Trout. He fishes for Tarpon in the summertime and goes after Sheepshead, Hogfish and Grouper in the winter. The techniques you can use to attract these interesting species are light tackle and spinning.

You’re free to take home the fish you catch and enjoy tasty meals with your family or friends. Kids are welcome to join your trip, bring them aboard and have a wonderful family outing.

Your trip includes all the fishing tackle, live bait, and licenses, as well as catch cleaning. Bring some snacks and drinks and prepare for lots of fun.
Kesten Charters is waiting for you!
