Captain Wilson Hubbard and his family have long enjoyed local prominence in the fishing industry. They also take pride in a nationwide following of visitors who return year after year to fish aboard the well-known "Friendly Fisherman" or the more recently acquired "Florida Fisherman II". The Hubbard family invites you to try your hand at deep sea fishing while you're here, offering trips to suit just about any fisherman: from 1/2 day trips in the morning or afternoon, all day trips, and even a true fishing adventure which will take you on an overnight trip to the rich offshore fishing grounds in the Gulf of Mexico. Ask for details and schedules at Hubbard's Marina, two doors west of the restaurant. Remember, we cook your catch!

We hope you'll enjoy sampling the fresh local fish here at the Friendly Fisherman, and that you will take the time to visit the attractive businesses here at John's Pass Village. The fishermen of John's Pass, her artists and craftsmen, her architecture and industry all reflect her continuing ties with the sea.

Tight lines! And remember.... If you're too busy to go fishing, you're just too busy!
