Gulf to Bay Fishing Charters operates in and around the famous Tampa Bay, providing fun and friendly fishing trips to anglers of all ages. They specialize in targeting Redfish, Snook, Tarpon, Trout, and more across a huge range of habitats. From shallow flats and murky backwaters to the sunken wrecks and deeper waters further out from shore.

Captain Logan Suhanovsky’s 23’ Blackjack center console is the perfect vessel to explore these famous waters. The vessel comes equipped with all the latest electronics, a trolling motor to sneak up on even the spookiest Snook or Tarpon while stalking the shallows, and a livewell full of the freshest live bait to make sure nothing can resist biting!

The Tampa Bay area needs no introduction when it comes to angling. Once little more than a quiet fishing community, this beautiful part of Florida now attracts people from all over the country, due to its incredible beauty and warm weather, but more importantly, it’s simply unbeatable fishing! with healthy stocks of dozens of top species found from a few inches of water all the way out to the deep blue seas of the Gulf of Mexico.

All Gulf to Bay Fishing Charters trips come with high-quality light and heavy tackle, which can be set up for trolling, spinning, or jigging depending on the target species, as well as fly fishing equipment if that is more your style. For those looking to make the most of the warm weather, there is also the option of snorkeling and spearfishing equipment, giving you the chance to spend your day in the water as well as on it.

Now take your pick among the available dates in the captain’s calendar, get your fishing group together, and land your next trophy with Gulf to Bay Fishing Charters!

I am captain Logan, I am a U.S Army veteran and father who has decided to make my dream job come true. I love fishing and I love taking people out to go and catch the fish of their dreams. I have been fishing the Tampa bay area all of my life, ever since I could go venture off with my bike as a kid. I love catching Snook (probably my favorite fish to catch) and also Redfish - nothing is better than when you fall upon a school of Redfish and listen to that drag on the reel scream. I also love to catch Trout on the flats as well as Tarpon and Black Drum. I am a U.S Coast guard licensed captain and am fully insured.
