If your coming in for short trip I would use a guide and he will wear all 3 of you out. Spring on the west coast is probably the most consistent for multiple hook ups when their in the passes - like 6 to 8 a day. Book early as tides are very important, they will know.
Heres 2 of the best, 1 in St Pete and the other is Boca Grande - since its next year you have time as both are at the top of the game and book early. Both have been TV stars too LOL
St Pete - Capt Tommy Z - Action Charters - also works at Betts Fishing Center I believe in the off season
Boca Grande - Capt Scott Hughes -
