Join us for unforgettable guided fishing trips in the beautiful waters of Homosassa
From Bayport to Crystal River, Homosassa Fishing Company fishes some of the most productive waters on Florida’s Gulf Coast. Our home port is MacRae’s of Homosassa, a true landmark for anglers for generations. For sight fishing and fly fishing, we run an East Cape Vantage—a sleek, modern skiff built to put you on fish in the shallowest, most remote spots. When it’s time to chase inshore species, we step aboard our fully rebuilt classic 1968 Flat Back Aqua Sport, a piece of fishing history brought back to life for today’s anglers. We offer half-day and full-day charters targeting trout, redfish, and snook, as well as fly fishing for tarpon and grouper trips on spin or fly. Want something different? We can set up a custom shore lunch right on the islands. And for those who want to head deeper, we’ve recently stepped into the offshore game with a 32’ SeaCraft, opening the door to big red snapper, gag grouper, and other Gulf giants. Whether you’re after a laid-back day inshore or an all-out offshore adventure, we’ve got the boat, the gear, and the local knowledge to make it happen.
Born and raised in Florida, I’m a 7th-generation outdoorsman with deep roots in the land and water of the Nature Coast. Growing up in an agricultural family, I learned the value of hard work and developed a lifelong respect for our natural resources. For the past 15 years, I’ve been guiding anglers from all over the world through the pristine waters of Homosassa. From chasing giant tarpon on fly to targeting grouper, trout, and redfish, my trips blend time-tested local knowledge with a sense of adventure you can’t find anywhere else. As Secretary-Treasurer of the Homosassa Guides Association, I’m proud to carry on the tradition of one of Florida’s most storied fishing communities. Step aboard, and let’s write your next fishing story together.
Captain Madison Macdonald is a lifelong Homosassa native with deep roots along Florida’s Nature Coast. Growing up on these waters, he developed a passion for fishing and exploring the unique ecosystems that make Homosassa one of Florida’s premier fisheries. Madison specializes in sight fishing for redfish with both spinning and fly tackle and pursues tarpon on fly during the annual migration. He runs an 18-foot Maverick HPX-V — a technical skiff built to access shallow flats, creeks, and backcountry waters. An active member of the Homosassa Guides Association, Madison is dedicated to preserving and sharing the traditions of his home waters. Beyond fishing, he guides quail hunts at Three Pines Preserve and turkey hunts during the spring season, offering clients a true Florida sporting experience.
