Welcome to Pocket Change Inshore Fishing Charters! Captain Anthony Corcella is a USCG licensed fishing guide with a lifetime of experience. You can join him for many adventures on the flats, backcountry, and nearshore waters of Tampa Bay, Clearwater, and St. Petersburg. He welcomes anglers of all skill levels, from novice to advanced!

Step aboard a 24' Carolina Skiff, built in 2015 and powered by a 140 HP Suzuki engine. With a maximum cruising speed of 45 knots, this craft doesn't waste any time taking you to the fishing grounds. Her sleek design allows you to fish in skinny water where most boats cannot go. On board you will find the latest fishing technology, including Simrad electronics, a wireless trolling motor, and a live bait well. This boat is also wheelchair accessible, with space on board for up to six passengers.

To take advantage of all the fishing possibilities and customer requests, Capt. Anthony trailers his boat and takes you to the best fishing available at the time of your charter. He specializes in light tackle fishing, using many different techniques both with artificial and live bait. He supplies Star Rods with Penn reels, including fly fishing equipment.

Whether fishing the fertile flats with a top water plug for Trout, live bait fishing a giant school of Redfish in Tampa Bay, or sight fishing for Tarpon along the beaches of St. Petersburg, this area offers a great variety of fishing opportunities and locations. These inshore waters are home to many large, hard fighting game fish! You can try fishing for a West Coast 'Grand Slam' of Snook, Trout, and Redfish in one day. And when conditions are right, you can even catch the ultimate 'Super Grand Slam' by adding a Tarpon!

Pocket Change Inshore Fishing Charters include everything you need, from a fishing license to quality tackle. Depending on the species, you can keep your catch and Capt. Anthony will clean and fillet it for you.

Just come aboard ready for great fishing!

great time!
The 3 Hour Tour on April 3, 20264 adults1 child
We had an amazing time on this fishing charter! From the moment we got on the boat, everything was smooth, professional, and well-organized. The crew was friendly, knowledgeable, and made sure everyone felt comfortable and ready to fish. Best of all—we actually caught fish! Not just one or two, but plenty to make the trip exciting and totally worth it. The captain clearly knew all the right spots, and you could tell they really care about making sure guests have a great experience. Whether you’re new to fishing or have done it before, this charter is a great choice. We made awesome memories and will definitely be booking again. Highly recommend!

Great trip
The 3 Hour Tour on July 22, 20252 adults3 children
We took our 3 kids (ranging 3, 9, and 12) on a 3 hr inshore fishing trip. Anthony and Jay were great. Boat was perfect. We caught a red drum, a cat fish, and a shark. My kids hoped to catch more fish but that’s the chance you take on the water. They tried a few different spots and the fish weren’t biting. We still had a great time out on the water. It was a beautiful day. My kids enjoyed cooking up and eating the red drum fish!
