Welcome to Chosen Waters Fishing Charters!

Hey everyone, I'm Captain Bill Yates, and I'm ready to take you on an unforgettable fishing trip out of Horseshoe Beach, Florida.

I'm a retired combat veteran with the U.S. Army, and I proudly served our country for 33 years. Much of that time was spent as infantry, including two tours in Iraq. Those years instilled in me a deep sense of discipline and a commitment to seeing things through, and I bring that same dedication to every single charter.

Fishing is my lifelong passion. Growing up here in Florida, I've spent countless hours mastering inshore fishing and scalloping. We'll target redfish, speckled trout, Spanish mackerel, and tripletail, depending on the season. I know these shallow waters like the back of my hand, and you can bet I'll put us on the fish.

I offer both half-day and full-day trips. I'll always have ice-cold water on board and plenty of cooler space for your catch. My goal is simple: to make sure you have a fantastic day, whether you're a seasoned angler chasing a trophy or fishing for the very first time.

Come on down and let's go fishing!
