Let’s go catch something! Whether you fish all the time or you’re holding a rod for the first time, Capt. Brad loves sharing a great day on the water. We’ll get you out there, help along the way and see what’s biting.
Book Fishing
Ready to play? Climb upstairs, hit the waterslide, jump in for a swim or just kick back and enjoy the ride. We’ll look for dolphins, stop at favorite swimming spots and make the day yours. Kids love it — and the adults usually end up on the slide too!
Book Funship
Let’s go find some treasures! We’ll head to favorite spots to hunt for shark teeth, collect seashells and enjoy a little beach time. Whether it’s your first shark tooth or your hundredth, finding one never gets old.
Book Shark Tooth Cruise
There’s just something different about a Florida sunset from the water. Bring your favorite people, settle in and watch the sky change while we cruise. No rushing, no agenda — just a beautiful ending to the day.
See Sunset Availability
This is the one where we bring ALL the fun! Our 30-foot Funship, Jet Ski, paddleboard, snorkel gear and water toys come together for four hours of swimming, exploring, playing and soaking up the Florida sunshine.
Book Ultimate Adventure
Lunch tastes better when you arrive by boat! Cruise with us to Rum Bay on Palm Island, enjoy the scenery and watch for wildlife along the way, then settle in for a laid-back island lunch before we cruise back.
Book Rumbay Run
Slow things down aboard our 40-foot Silverton, Anchored Inn. Enjoy a private two-hour cruise along the Venice Intracoastal with coffee and doughnuts in the morning or charcuterie in the afternoon and evening.

— BrianAquaholic operates from several Venice and Nokomis pickup locations because our boats are based and launched differently. Choose your trip below, and always use the exact meeting instructions in your booking confirmation.
MarineMax Venice
Our fishing boat is kept at MarineMax Venice, so fishing charters depart from there.
Venice Train Depot boat ramp
Our trailered boat trips, including Dolphin and Funship adventures, meet at the Venice Train Depot ramp.
Nokomis Beach public boat ramp
Our Silverton is based near Casey Key, so private yacht cruise guests meet at the Nokomis Beach public boat ramp.
Bring sunscreen, sunglasses, a hat, towels and anything you need for your booked adventure. Guests may bring food and drinks unless the specific cruise already includes refreshments.
Experiences are designed around your booked group. Check the specific booking option for current capacity and inclusions.
Trips are weather-dependent. Capt. Brad makes safety-based decisions and will communicate if conditions affect your outing.
No. Dolphins, manatees, sea turtles and other wildlife are wild. We know where to look, but nature decides what appears.
Pickup depends on the adventure: fishing charters use MarineMax Venice; our trailered Dolphin/Funship trips use the Venice Train Depot boat ramp; private yacht cruises use the Nokomis Beach public boat ramp. Always follow the exact meeting instructions in your booking confirmation.
Rates vary by trip and season. Use Book Now for current availability and pricing, or call Capt. Brad with questions.
