Discover the incredible inshore and nearshore waters of the Tampa Bay with Awestruck Fishing Charters. Capt. Phil Dyer is a native to the area. He knows these waters like the back of his hand, and his local knowledge will prove invaluable as you hit all the sweet spots in search of strong and delicious fish.

Step aboard the 25' VIP bay boat for the trip of a lifetime. Ideal for fishing these shallow waters, she has plenty of space for up to 6 guests to fish at the same time. The 225 HP Yamaha engine will whizz you up to speeds of 40 knots as you chase the fish, while the wireless trolling motor will keep you afloat and quiet as you creep up on your target fish in the skinny waters.

Explore the productive inshore backwaters and flats of the Tampa Bay. Home to a range of both strong and delicious fish, you'll sight cast using live bait. Get ready for an intense workout as you battle it out with a Snook or Redfish. While landing a Sheepshead, Flounder, or Trout will have you safe in the knowledge that dinner is sorted.

On longer trips, you'll have the chance to head up to 9 miles offshore, fishing the nearshore reefs and wrecks. The Gulf is known all over the world for its diversity of fish and you'll have them all to yourself. From Snappers and Groupers, to Barracuda, Amberjack, Cobia, and many more – there'll be no shortage of exciting fish to catch.

During the Tarpon season, Capt. Phil will take you on specialized trips in search of the 'Silver King.' See for yourself why this beast is revered all over the world, as it gives you the fight of your life, leaping out of the water to get off the end of your line.

Everything you need for a productive day on the water is provided, while your captain will even clean and prepare your catch at the end of the day. All you need to do is bring some snacks and drinks aboard, and get ready for an amazing day out with Awestruck Fishing Charters. These waters won't fish themselves, so they're calling your name!

Captain Phil Was Great
3 hour inshore on March 24, 20263 adults1 child
My son and my two friends had an absolute blast with Awestruck. Capatin Phil was very personable and knowledgeable. We were able to catch a variety of fish at the areas he took us to (plenty for a great dinner). He even took extra time with my 8 year old son who actually caught more fish than the rest of us. This was the highlight of our trip to the area and I highly recommend him. He even informed us of some other species he like to fish for if you are looking to just have fun and catch as many as you can. We also got to see dolphins (who kind of shut us down at our first location after we were on a roll) and a manatee at our second spot. I cannot thank him enough for a great time and I will definitely be looking him up when we are back in the area. 5 stars for sure!

Captain Phil is awesome!
near shore full day on June 17, 20263 adults
My daughter a friend and myself chartered an 8 hour trip. Captain Phil notified us of the weather shift and modified our trip to work around it. We had a great trip and were able to land several large fish as well as catch our limit on sea trout. This was the best charter experience to date. We plan to use Phil the next time we are in the area.

Caught at keast 20 Fush!
Half Day Trip (AM) on June 18, 20262 adults3 children
our captain knew exactly where to take us and where to find the fish! Of at least 20 fish that we caught, we were able to bring home four with us. Our captain cleaned and prepared the fish for us to take with us when we left. We had an amazing dinner that night from rod to table!

Half Day Trip (AM) on May 20, 20262 adults
Captain Phil was absolutely amazing. He went the extra mile to make sure we caught fish, and we ended up catching a ton of big snook along with speckled and silver trout. He knows the waters extremely well and put us on some awesome spots all day. He was kind, patient, and made the whole trip a great experience. Highly recommend booking with Captain Phil , he’s a wonderful guide and an even better person!
