If fishing in St. Petersburg is on your bucket list, look no further than Bowfish St Pete. With Captain Kelly at the helm, you'll have a knowledgeable and experienced guide.

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!

Your fishing machine for the day is a 19' Aluminum fishing with space for 5 passengers. It comes with all the essentials no fishing machine can run without.

Capt. Kelly will supply rods and reels for you.

Trips are run with the help of a First Mate. Mates often work for tips and it's customary to offer them a 10–20% tip.

There's no need to buy a fishing license, so you can drive right over and come aboard without any hassle! Be mindful that some species may have special rules or limited seasons. Simply ask and your captain can tell you more.

It's recommended to bring a hat, sunglasses, bottled water, and sunscreen (non-spray). Drinks are included, free of charge. Alcohol is not allowed.

Get in touch with Capt. Kelly below and start planning your trip today!

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!
