Want to fish more than 9 miles offshore? Want to experience fishing without seeing land? Contact us. There are a limited number of vessels with the required permits to take you beyond the 9 mile boundary. We have those permits. The majority of our trips begin at least 10 miles offshore.

We also offer a nearshore option for those less inclined to fish far offshore. Explore the Sunshine Skyway bridge and local area on our 3 hr nearshore fishing trip.

Thermocline Charters is located in St Pete, Port Richey, and Clearwater Florida. This charter departs from the Ft Desoto boat ramp.

You’ll be fishing from a 27’ ProKat catamaran powered with twin 300hp outboards. We can accommodate up to 6 anglers.

Capt. Dave will do his best to make sure you have a fun day full of fishing. We offer 4,5, and 8, 10, and 12 hour trips, mainly fishing for Grouper, Snapper, Trigger Fish, Amberjack, etc. depending on the season and conditions of the day.

On these trips, you can expect to use techniques such as light tackle, heavy tackle, bottom fishing, trolling, drift fishing, and jigging..

This sea-worthy vessel has an ice box for food and drinks, in-floor coolers for fish, state-of-the-art electronics for navigation, radar, and sonar. It's also equipped with a trolling motor to anchor you precisely over the fishing spots.

The price of your trip includes your fishing license for the day, all the rods, reels, bait, and terminal tackle you’ll need for a productive day on the water.

You’re welcome to keep anything you catch as long as the species is in season. We'll fillet and bag your catch at no additional cost.
