Scenic Tampa Bay Eco-Tours

Weedon Island Preserve is one of Tampa Bay’s best eco-tour destinations. With the use of only an electric trolling motor, you’ll have the opportunity to explore areas usually only accessible to kayakers. This allows you to observe lush mangrove shorelines and oyster beds teaming with wildlife. Every day on the water is different, but many […]

Had a great trip!

Wade did an amazing job of getting us to fish fast! We thought we’d maybe get a few bites, but we caught well over 40 fish and loved every second of it. He worked his tail off making sure we had bait on the line and fish off the hooks within seconds. We will be […]

Shrimp For The Win!

I always say, “Fish are Fickle.” That’s particularly true this time of year with the advent of a passing cold front every three to four days. One day the fish are active, the next day lethargic. After a cold front, even when I take the time to catch scaled sardines before picking up my charter […]

Great Day in Spite of Tournament Pressure!

Had a great time with Wade. He was able to get us on some trout within about 20 minutes of leaving the dock. There were multiple tournaments the weekend he took us out, but he still had solid spots that all produced. He handles pretty much everything besides casting and reeling, so this would be […]

Chum and They Will Come!

Not to sound like Dr. Seuss but, when I’m fishing, “I chum here, I chum there, I chum everywhere.” Whether chumming with fresh cut bait or live bait, I am admittedly a chumming maniac! When I take people fishing, I don’t just go to a spot, set up and have them cast baits out and […]

Fall is Finally Arriving!

So far, we haven’t had typical fall weather here in the Tampa Bay area, but it’s coming. Above normal temperatures have kept the water in the mid-70’s. Usually, by now the water temperature on the grass flats is in the low 70’s to upper 60’s. Once it reaches those temperatures which should be by this […]

Needless to say, “They’re Hooked.”

During their visit to Tampa for the National League of Cities, 2024 City Summit last week, attendees from Santa Clara, UT took the opportunity to experience some Tampa Bay flats fishing. (L-R) Brock, City Manager, Rick, Mayor and Ben, City Council enjoyed two separate days of non-stop snook and redfish action. Here’s what Rick had […]

It’s a Grass Flats Bonanza!

It’s been a long hot summer, but relief is just around the corner. The days are getting shorter and soon the water temperatures will be dropping back into the 70’s. Once the water cools, the redfish and snook fishing will heat up. Mid-to-late September, and especially, October ushers in some of the best redfish action […]
