If you're ready to go fishing in Tampa, book a trip with Rock Star Charters. Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Rick can tell you all about the local fishery.

Species like Speckled Trout, Redfish, Tarpon, Mangrove Snapper, Cobia, Snook, and more can be found in these waters if conditions are right. On these trips, it's common to spin using light tackle.

Looking to get the whole family outdoors? Kids are absolutely welcome! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise you should bring your own. You're welcome to bring snacks to ward off any mid-trip fatigue!

Your trip begins aboard a 23' Dorado bay boat with room for 2 passengers. It comes with a fighting chair, and everything you need for a productive day on the water. You'll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you. Live bait is on offer, but be sure to ask about it so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.

There's no need to buy a fishing license, so all you have to do is look forward to your trip! Be mindful that some species may have special rules or limited seasons. If you don't know what to expect, ask the captain.

Some essentials to bring are sunglasses, a hat, and sunscreen (non-spray). Drinks are included, free of charge. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but you should avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles. There will be some light snacks provided on board.

How often would you rather be fishing? Go on and turn that day dream into a reality, with Rock Star Charters.

Florida native, grew up fishing with my Dad from Englewood to Tampa Bay , St Petersburg waters. I enjoy teaching the novice anglers some of the knowledge I've learned over years on the water and will do my best to make sure you take home a memory and maybe even a few fish. Basically fished my whole life.
