Florida Reels Fishing Charters are located where Florida meets fishing – in Tampa Bay! The Tampa Bay estuary is brimming with the inshore sport fish everyone wants to catch. Captain Christopher Taylor has over 20 years of experience fishing these waters and he will take you out for an experience that you'll never forget!

You'll fish aboard his 21' Clearwater center console boat, powered by a 115 HP Suzuki engine. The speedy vessel will take you to the best and most productive fishing grounds easily and in style. It contains all the safety equipment and electronics you'll need on the trip, as well as a live bait tank where you will store your bait until you get to the fishing grounds.

You will have all the fishing gear provided by Capt. Christopher, you'll fish using live bait. The captain will be happy to clean your catch at the end of your trip so you can take it home for a nice dinner, or to fill the freezer.

There is much to see in the way of wildlife above and below the water. Capt. Christopher will take you fishing for Black Drum, Cobia, Goliath Grouper, Jack Crevalle, Redfish, Black Seabass, Sheepshead, Mangrove Snapper, Spanish Mackerel, Snook, Spotted Seatrout, and the mighty fighter Tarpon.

Feel free to bring your kids along for the ride, and make some amazing new family memories. Make sure to pack some food and drinks so you can stay refreshed throughout the day, as well as some sunscreen for your protection, and you're all set.

Join Florida Reels Fishing Charters, explore the productive Florida waters, and have the fishing trip of a lifetime!

Great day fishing
4 Hour–Inshore/Nearshore (11:30AM) on March 21, 20262 adults
Beautiful sunny day with great fishing. We caught about 25 fish, including speckled trout, sand seatrout, lady fish and a porcupine fish. Also missed many. Captain Chris was very friendly and knowledgeable. We would recommend this charter to anyone who enjoys a day on the water fishing.

Captain Chris made sure we all caught a couple fish, in my opinion that’s all you can ask for. If I ever go fishing again in Tampa I will 100% use him again. He also plays a mean saxophone!!!
