Pontoon and CC Boat Fishing Trips

Pontoon and Center Console Boat Fishing Trips are a fun way to spend a day on the water, meet new people, and maybe catch some fish! We try to hold these events on the second Wednesday of each month from 8 am to 12 pm based on weather and availability. Our new sign up pages send a link to cancel if you have a change of plans. This frees up a seat for someone on the wait list! The wait list appears when the seats are full.

Trips are run by club members with Freedom Boat Club memberships. A small donation is requested for participants that covers fuel, docking fees and dockhand gratuities.

Bring your own fishing gear and bait. Most use a light spinning rod and shrimp as bait. Since bait may not be sold at the marina, stop by bait shops on US-Hwy 41 in Ruskin beforehand.

Join the fun! Sign Up for the next fishing trip here!
