The waters around St. Petersburg are some of the most productive and exciting inshore fishing in the entire Sunshine State. Take A Day Off Fishing Charters takes a step further and combines excellent fishing with premier customer service to make for an unforgettable fishing trip!

Captain Thomas Dominguez invites you to join him on board his 25' C-Hawk for an exciting inshore excursion. She's a bay boat with a roomy deck, able to hold you and 3 fishing partners fishing in comfort. She's powered by a 250 HP Yamaha outboard engine – thanks to her shallow draft and powerful engine you can cruise at a max speed of 40 knots.

Capt. Thomas will take you after a wide range of gorgeous inshore species in the bountiful waters around St. Petersburg. The onboard wireless trolling motor allows you to sneak up on the likes of Redfish, Snook or Spotted Seatrout. If you're looking to test your fishing muscles, hook up a Jack Crevalle or Cobia, some of the best fighters pound-for-pound.

Trophy anglers can look forward to the famous Silver King. Going after these great beasts is a fun challenge, especially on light tackle! Remember to bring a waterproof camera to take pictures, so you can show your new personal best back home.

The captain will provide you with all the necessary equipment for the trip. You should bring polarized sunglasses, adequate clothing, and sunscreen, the sunshine in Florida can get pretty hot.

Great fishing captain and trip

4 Hour Trip (AM) on June 27, 2022 • 2 adults

My friend and I hired Captain Thomas for a 1/2-day Inshore trip in Tampa Bay.  It’s been a long time since we had fished, but Captain Thomas was great in getting us going and making this an awesome trip.  

Captain Thomas knew right where to fish and we had a great haul of Bonnethead Sharks and Mangrove Snapper.  We brought home enough for many many meals.  

Captain Thomas also had great suggestions for how to prepare our catch, and I have to say that this was some of the most delicious fish I have ever had.  

I would highly recommend Captain Thomas and Take a Day Off Fishing Charters.

4 Hour Morning Trip

4 Hour Trip (AM) on May 8, 2022 • 4 adults

Great Mother's Day morning trip with Captain Tom! Very knowledgeable about the waters and the fish. My mom had a blast - which was the most important part, but as an added bonus she caught the first fish! We caught several large fish, and were able to enjoy a beautiful sunny day on the bay! Great attitude and playlist. Super fun trip and we will be back next time we're in the area!

Half Day with Captain Thomas

4 Hour Trip (AM) on June 26, 2022 • 2 adults • 1 child

My kids an I had an amazing time. Thomas took us right away to a great spot and started us all off each catching a few sharks. We moved to a different area and continued to have luck catching redfin. Thomas was knowledgeable,  friendly and made all of us feel our needs were important. I would highly recommend him to anyone that wants to have a great experience!
