Captain Artie Price

Capt. Artie competes at the highest level of fishing tournaments including FLW Tour on the Redfish and Bass Tours, Bassmasters, Espn Redfish Cup, IFA Redfish Tour and the Professional Tarpon Tournament Series which he and team have dominated for the last 4 years. When Artie gets away from fishing the numerous tournament trails, he enjoys charter fishing on his home water on Florida’s Gulf Coast for the many game fish that swim the flats. Capt. Artie is sponsored by the legendary boat manufacturer, Ranger Boats.  Known as the "ultimate bay boat," when you fish with him for tarpon, you will fish in comfort and style all day long on his brand new 23' Ranger Bay Boat.  He also guides out of a 21 foot tower boat that will run 3 inches of water and a custom airboat for our winter time fishing in Boca Grande. The tower boat enables him to get to places that flats and bay boats can not access until the tide comes in. By the time anybody gets into our backcountry creeks and ponds, Artie already cleaned the fish out of the honey holes.

 
Artie is also involved in national advertisement with Ranger Boats and other prominent companies as well as television exposure on ESPN, Fox Sports, Sun, and WFN. Artie has amassed a record of consistent top 10 finishes and tournament championship appearances on the Redfish tours. The winning of the 1999 Catch the King tarpon tournament in Boca Grande, ($86,000), his 2003 World Championship Tarpon Series win and Artie's 2005, 2006 & 2007 Yamaha Team of the Year Professional Tarpon Tournament Series titles (a five week tournament series against the best tarpon anglers in the world) highlight his illustrious career. Captains Artie Price and Brian Hart have won the most money in the last 8 years winning over $500,000 in cash and prizes in the Boca Grande Tarpon Tournaments.

With teammates like Brian Hart and Mike Cook on the redfish side, and Brian Hart, Scott Hart and Mike Whitfoth on the tarpon side, be assured that Artie will continue to compete at the highest levels of professional redfish and tarpon angling.
