Top targets include Pacific Barracuda, Sheepshead, Skate, and more if you cast your line at the right time of year.
During the trip you might be or maybe something more specialized in this area. Capt. Kelly also offers Flounder gigging. For the more adventurous among you, there's spearfishing and bowfishing.
Thinking of bringing the whole family? Kids are absolutely welcome! Children must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board. Snacks are never a bad idea for a boost of energy when needed!

Bob Terry5.0VerifiedNight outing with Captain Kelly from St. Pete Bowfishing
5 Hour Trip – Bow Fishing (PM) on April 21, 2023 • 2 adultsMy dad was visiting from CT and I wanted to take him out bowfishing. Found Captain Kelly - and I’m so glad I did. An outstanding evening! Plenty of shooting with multiple species. Captain Kelly and his first mate, Mike, were excellent. Extremely knowledgeable about the sport, the species, and the area - as well as being great guys. My dad has been bowfishing for over 40 years, and he said it was the best experience he’s ever had. I will definitely be booking with Captain Kelly again!
