Come join Aquatic Escapes in catching fish and have a memorable time on the water! Captain Jarrod Wallach will take you to the flats, mangroves and bridges of Tampa Bay, departing from Davis Islands in Tampa and make sure you have lots of fun and return with a respectable catch. Pick your day and come aboard for an unforgettable fishing adventure with Aquatic Escapes!
The boat you'll use is a 25' Sportsman bay boat. Inshore trips carry up to 6 people as a family group, usually three or four adults plus two or three kids. Tarpon and Shark trips are capped at 4 anglers. It runs on a 250 HP Yamaha engine, uses modern navigation electronics, and is equipped with snorkeling gear and a livewell. You can also use the onboard coolers.
The species you and the captain will chase are Mangrove Snapper, Tarpon, King Mackerel, Gag Grouper, Redfish, Shark, and many more. You'll attract your prey by light tackle bottom fishing, trolling, spinning, jigging, popping, as well as drift fishing. You can keep the fish you catch and you can bring kids on board if they are at least 6 years old.
Captain Jarrod covers you for all the rods, reels, lures, live bait, as well as fishing licenses and catch cleaning. A first mate is on board for almost every trip, baiting hooks, tying lines, netting your fish, and making sure everyone has a cold drink in hand. No food is provided on any trip. There is extra bottled water on board, so just bring the drinks of your choice and some sun protection. Drinks in cans only - no glass bottles on the boat.
Spend a day on the water with Aquatic Escapes and have a beautiful fishing experience on Tampa Bay!
