Meet Captain Art Wile

Captain Art Wile fishes from a Sea Born FX24 that is designed for both inshore and offshore waterways.  It can easily accommodate 4 anglers and is powered by a 250 HP Yamaha SHO.

Captain Art specializes in light tackle, inshore and nearshore fishing for Redfish, Sea Trout, Sheepshead, Mangrove Snapper, Spanish Mackerel, Grouper, Cobia and Snook.  He also books scallop charters during the months of July, August and September.

Fishing Old Homosassa

Captain Art operates out of Old Homosassa.  The Homosassa River is a beautiful river that is full of life.  Manatees, birds, fish and crabs are just a few of the things that you will find.  Its head waters are the Homosassa Springs and from there it flows west several miles through a network of coastal wetlands into the Gulf of Mexico.  The pristine flats of Homosassa Bay are ideal for drifting or easing along with a trolling motor.  Homosassa Bay features mangrove shorelines, oyster bars and grass beds.  These features make a perfect ambush point for Redfish, Sea Trout and Snook and of course awaiting anglers.

The Homosassa River is also famous for its freshwater springs and the abundance of West Indian Manatees that congregate during the winter months.  Swimming with the Manatees is an opportunity that you won’t want to miss.  Contact Captain Art Wile to book your Homosassa River and Manatee Tour today!
