Contact and booking details

Fishing with Captain Jessica

Jessica's biography says her husband introduced her to fishing and that the interest grew into guiding and tournament fishing. The operator describes hands-on help for new anglers and families. Her fishing approach includes light tackle, live bait and sight casting where conditions permit.

Redfish and snook lead the fishing menu, with trout and sheepshead also named in the FAQ. The river's creeks, coastal flats and mangrove-lined backwaters are the advertised fishing setting. Although some website headings say Brooksville or Homosassa, the trip descriptions specifically launch on the Chassahowitzka River.

A small shallow-water fishing boat

The captain page lists an 18-foot Grizzly Jon boat with a 50-horsepower Mercury. GPS, a livewell and fishing gear are described. Its boat details give a two-guest fishing capacity, making it a small-party option rather than a large group vessel.

Some wildlife listings instead mention three or four guests. Those descriptions conflict with the boat's two-guest figure. Have Jessica confirm the assigned boat and permitted passenger count for your exact package before booking a tour for more than two people.

Morning, afternoon and full-day fishing

Four-hour morning and afternoon fishing trips are each advertised from $450. An eight-hour full day starts at $600. The trip pages describe departure from Chassahowitzka Boat Ramp and fishing along the river and remote backcountry.

Rods, reels, tackle, live bait when applicable and fishing-license coverage appear in the inclusions. Bring your group's food, drinks and sun protection. Ask whether the price covers your entire party and whether there are additional payment charges or cleaning services.

Scallops or a wildlife tour

Four-hour scalloping starts at $400. Confirm the current local season and the snorkeling equipment for that separate activity. Its Gulf destination involves a different plan from a day casting for fish in the backcountry.

The two-hour eco and manatee tours are advertised at $60 per person in the overview. Wildlife sightings are possibilities, not guarantees. Tour pages disagree about the guest maximum, so Jessica should resolve both head count and total price before payment. Ask for a viewing outing that respects wildlife and current access rules.

Contact Jessica and confirm the refund terms

The FAQ lists 8600 West Miss Maggie Drive as the meeting address. Call Jessica or email her with the package, date and number of people. The site also offers online booking. Request the exact dock and parking instructions after the trip is confirmed.

A deposit is applied at checkout, with the balance due on the trip date. For guest cancellations, the website sets a three-day notice period to recover the deposit. Guide cancellation for weather, health or equipment permits rescheduling or a deposit refund. Verify that the terms shown in your final reservation match the package you selected.

Details checked October 11, 2026, using the operator’s published information. Rates, boats, meeting points and policies can change; confirm the final trip details directly. Listed species describe possible targets, not a guaranteed catch or an open harvest season.
