Welcome to Tampa Bay, Florida, home of some the best light tackle inshore fishing in the world! I'm a native of the Tampa Bay area and have been fishing Tampa Bay area waters all of my life. This gives me the unique advantage of knowing when and where the fish are biting year round. Born in St. Petersburg and never lived outside of the county, I've called Tampa Bay waters my "back yard" for a long time.
I'm a local Tampa fishing guide and have been charter fishing Tampa Bay area since 1997. All my Tampa Bay area fishing charters are family friendly with an emphasis on being easy going and having a great time on the water! I invite you to take a look at my website, look through the photo galleries and fishing reports, and browse the pages to learn more about the fish species we target and when and where we target them.

Charter Info
Report
I'm a Florida native, born and raised in the Tampa Bay, Florida area fishing these waters as a kid in search of the same species I now guides others to. I'm very knowledgeable of my home waters and know the surroundings and conditions it takes to make a fantastic Tampa Bay fishing charter adventure.
Redfish
Report
Redfish are the bruisers of the flats. They have unbelievable stamina and the ability to put up a tremendous fight! They inhabit very shallow grass flats that can cause the phenomenon known as "Tailing Reds". Many times when feeding, Redfish will root in the grass with their head down leaving their tail sticking out of the water.
Snook
Report
Snook are one of the most sought after gamefish in Florida. The Snook is known for its acrobatic leaps and long runs and the ability to make your knees knock while anticipating a strike! Snook habitat ranges from beaches to passes, docks, mangroves, potholes, seawalls, jetties and many more.
Most of our snook fishing charters are centered around catching snook in natural setting such as the mangroves and beaches but sometimes we'll go over to residential docks and throw some baits under the structure to see what's home.Wading is a really good option while snook fishing and is one of the best ways to obtain quality fish.

Tarpon
Report
Tarpon aka the silver king, poons, megalops atlanticus, sabalo, now we're talking about a serious fish! Tarpon are capable of peeling all the line off a spool in a very short time! Hooking a Tarpon is like casting a plug onto a freeway - hold on! Tarpon are very acrobatic and capable of jumping out of the water 10 feet into the air!
Trout
Report
Spotted Seatrout also known as speckled trout or just plain "trout" in the Tampa Bay area is one of the most fished for species around Florida. The meat is mild and it tastes delicious! The fish is widely available around the state and just recently (2012) we've had our seasons changed where there is no closed season on the gulf coast.
