I need a recommendation on a good guide, lodging, and the best time to go. The calendar is wide open so times really dont matter. We are planning to take our spouses so lodgings dont need to be luxury but at least clean. any input would be appreciated.

Offshore = May!!!!!!!! Tuna, dolphin, wahoo, and a shot at a marlin. Come back and stop and catch your amberjack and red snapper and maybe a cobia. Overnight trips are awesome, and a very good shot at swordfish if you are interested in that. Venice is very close to the shelf so short ride to the fishing grounds. Several guides to look into, but Peace Marvel is the man if you can get him. Not sure if he is advertising, but he is the man. Can look up Venice Marina or Cypress Cove Marina and they can shoot you in a good direction. Awesome place for fishing. Trout and reds should be very good in May also.
