Located in St. Petersburg, Bowfish St Pete offers bow fishing trips in the waters of Tampa Bay and the nearshore waters of the Gulf of Mexico. Captain Kelly Andersen is a retired US Army Veteran and will be honored to assist you in making memories to last a lifetime. He’s a USCG licensed and insured captain with over 25 years of experience in bow fishing and will know how to provide a safe, fun, and productive fishing adventure for you and your party.

The boat you’ll be fishing from is an Alweld aluminum custom built bowfishing boat with room for up to 5 guests. It runs on a 115 HP Yamaha engine and is equipped with GPS, fishfinder, and radio technology to ensure safe and quick reach to the fishing grounds. It’s also wheelchair-accessible, making it possible for everyone to enjoy a lovely day on the water.

You and the crew will be targeting Sheepshead, Stingray, Flounder, Black Drum, Mullet, Ladyfish, Jack Crevalle, Barracuda, Mojarra, Atlantic Spadefish, and many more. To attract your prey, you can use bow fishing, and Flounder gigging.

Kids are welcome to join the trip and the crew will provide life jackets for them. You’ll be keeping the fish you catch. Also, keep in mind that alcohol is not allowed during the trip.

Captain Kelly provides all the fishing equipment, licenses, and water. If you want, you may bring additional snacks and drinks.

Great first time bow fishing
5 Hour Trip – Bow Fishing (PM) on April 12, 20252 adults
The trip was great. The captain is extremely friendly and we had a great time. This was my first time ever bowfishing and I definitely want to pursue it in the future. Definitely would recommend doing this. I hope bring my wife and daughter back soon.

Night outing with Captain Kelly from St. Pete Bowfishing
5 Hour Trip – Bow Fishing (PM) on April 21, 20232 adults
My 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!
