The Tampa Bay area is littered with great fishing hotspots and Sundaze Inshore Charters are here to take you to them. From mangrove covered reserves to little archipelagos, Captain Eddy Cooper is here to take you to them all. All of his charters can be planned to meet your wants and needs, and ensuring that you have a memorable experience.

You can launch from most major boat ramps in the Tampa Bay area or even be picked up from your private dock in Eddy's 22' Tidewater center console. It's powered by a 250 HP Yamaha engine meaning you can skip around the bay in no time at all. It features a live bait well to keep it fresh as well as fishfinder equipment to make sure you get some catches.

Your potential catches include Cobia, Grouper, Jack Crevalle, Redfish, Mangrove Snapper, Snook, Speckled Trout and much more. Eddy even runs trips specifically targeting Sheepshead as he finds them so fun to catch and loves tucking into them after a day of fishing them. You'll use both light and heavy Florida Fishing Products tackle to reel them in by using bottom fishing and spinning techniques.

He'll fetch live bait for you beforehand as well as providing you with some fresh water. Your fishing license is also provided in addition to catch cleaning so you can get your fish straight into the pan afterward.

All you have to do is take sunscreen, food, and sweeter drinks, if you prefer them, with you. After that, you only need to do is to get yourself excited for a day of action and fun in the scenic Tampa Bay.

Born to be a Captain!
4 Hour Trip - Morning on March 13, 20264 adults

Captain Eddie is the most mild mannered Captain I’ve ever fished with. His patience with the younger guys I had out on this trip was amazing. Anytime anyone made a cast into the trees he calmly tried to get it out with a smile. We caught fish from the first cast pretty much until we ran out of bait. We saw countless dolphin on the trip. Had Hookers cook our redfish blackened and grilled. This was a trip to remember. I will be fishing with him again for sure!

Angler's Choice

The Angler's Choice Award is given to listings that consistently deliver a high-quality service and earn great reviews from customers.

Growing up in Tampa Bay I was surrounded by the water, from lakes in Valrico to the salt water flats in Tampa to the depths of the Gulf. Fishing meant family. I love to sharing my passion of fishing and Tampa Bay ecosystem with my clients. The ecosystem here is particularly special with all of the marine diversity around and we can check them out while reeling in some fish!
