Taylor St.clair5.0Verificeretgreat fishing trip and experience
3 Timers Hurtig Fangst Eventyr • 4 voksne • 1 barnoverall great time with the family, caught fish consistently and captain Matt was great with my 7 year old son as well as the the rest of us. we caught mostly Grunt but also caught mangrove snappers, some red groupers, a puffer fish, a lady fish, hooked onto some other larger fish a few times that snapped the line unfortunately. I would definitely recommend this trip to others, we did the 3 hour nearshore trip and it was perfect. if going wothut kids I'd definitely recommend at least the 4 hr trip, if you have young ones the 3 seemed just right at least for us.

Svar fra kaptajnenThank you so much. You guys did great! We had to work for them today but you definitely have some fish tacos in your future. It was a pleasure meeting you.
Heidi BrownTilbagevendende lystfisker5.0VerificeretToo many fish, not enough time!
2 Timers Privat Fiskeri Charter • 2 voksneWe originally booked 2 hours and quickly realized it wasn’t enough time to fully enjoy everything. The experience flew by, and there was still so much we wanted to do without feeling rushed. Upgrading to 4 hours would make a huge difference — it would allow us to relax longer, take our time, and really get the full value of what was offered. If you’re on the fence, I’d strongly recommend going with 4 hours from the start. It’s absolutely worth it.
Indberettet fangst:Svar fra kaptajnenGlad you guys had a great time out there! That 2-hour trip is a fun way to get a quick taste, but it definitely goes by fast—especially when the bite is on. Next time we’ll get you set up on a 4-hour so we can really settle in, hit a few more spots, and keep the action going longer. Looking forward to having you back out!
Jeffery Stewart5.0VerificeretGreat family fishing trip!!!

Svar fra kaptajnenSo glad you had a good time on your trip. it was a pleasure meeting you guys. I am glad you were able to bring some fish home with you for dinner. Hope to see you again next time.
Frank Barncord5.0VerificeretCapt. Matt Is Terrific!
4 Tim. Ved kysten • 2 voksneMatt was very courteous, helpful, and did everything in his power to make my wife and I comfortable. He called ahead of the trip to introduce himself and answer any and all questions we might have before the trip. On the day of the trip he put us on fish right away, and the bite never faded! We brought home plenty of fish to enjoy. I would recommend Captain Matt without hesitation!!
Svar fra kaptajnenThank you so much! I hope you enjoy the fresh fish. It was a pleasure meeting and fishing with you. I hope we can get you out next time you are here.
Jason Bray5.0Verificeret3 hour tour
3 Timers Hurtig Fangst Eventyr • 3 voksneWe had a great time fishing with captain Matt. I highly recommend the the 7am departure and 3 hr slot in the summer heat. We were catching fish the entire time of all varitey and size.
Indberettet fangst:
Svar fra kaptajnenThank you for the review of your trip. We had a short time to get some fish and you nailed it. The Cobia that showed up did not cooperate but the grouper kept us busy for sure. I hope to get you out again next time you are in town. It was a pleasure fishing with you.

Clearwater Nearshore Fishing is Heating
Sep 1, 2026 • belleair Bluffs
The Clearwater nearshore bite is producing some great mixed-bag action right now! We’re finding Mangrove Snapper, Cobia, Black Sea Bass, Triggerfish, and Grunt holding around nearshore structure, reefs, and productive bottom spots.
Mangrove Snapper have been a standout, with quality fish providing plenty of fast-paced action and excellent table fare. Cobia are also on the lookout, so anglers need to be ready when one shows up around structure or on the surface.
The bottom bite has been keeping rods bent with Black Sea Bass, Triggerfish, and Grunt mixed in. These trips are a great option for anglers looking for lots of bites and the chance to bring home a variety of fresh fish.
We’re using a combination of frozen Squid, cut bait, and chumming with frozen Threadfin and we use proven bottom-fishing techniques to stay on the fish. Whether you're an experienced angler or taking the family out for a day on the Gulf, Clearwater's nearshore waters are offering plenty of action.
? The fish are biting — now is a great time to get on the water! Book your Clearwater nearshore trip and let's see what’s waiting below.

Fishing is really heating up
Apr 1, 2026 • belleair Bluffs
Current spring conditions around Belleair Bluffs and nearby Clearwater are improving fast with warmer water, more bait moving in, and better action both inshore and offshore. Spanish mackerel are already showing strongly on the flats and near bridges, while grouper, triggerfish, and kingfish action should continue improving through April.
Grunt – Grunts are biting well on nearshore hard bottom and reefs in 40–80 feet. Small pieces of squid, shrimp, and cut bait on light tackle are producing steady action.
Red Grouper – Red grouper action is solid offshore in deeper structure and hard-bottom areas west of Clearwater. Live pinfish, sardines, and cut bait around ledges and rock piles are working best. Offshore captains around Belleair Bluffs have continued reporting red grouper catches through the cooler months, which is a good sign heading into April.
Cobia – Cobia should begin showing more consistently around markers, buoys, rays, and nearshore wrecks this month as water temperatures climb. Keep a pitch rod ready with live pinfish or large jigs.
Black Sea Bass – Black sea bass are still available offshore on rocky bottom and reef structure, especially mixed in with grunts and snapper. Shrimp and squid on bottom rigs are working.
Triggerfish – Triggerfish are holding on deeper wrecks and reefs offshore. Smaller hooks tipped with squid or cut bait are best because they can be picky and steal bait easily.
King Mackerel – Kingfish activity should pick up over the next few weeks around bait schools, shipping channels, and offshore reefs. Slow trolling live bait like threadfins and sardines is the best approach.
Spanish Mackerel – Spanish mackerel are one of the hottest bites right now. Schools have moved onto the shallow grass flats, passes, and bridges, and anglers are seeing nonstop action with flashy spoons, jigs, and live bai

March Fishing report
Mar 2, 2026 • belleair Bluffs
Nearshore Bite Overview (Belleair Bluffs / Pinellas County)
? Current Fishing Conditions
Nearshore spots are producing, especially around natural hard bottom and reef structure a few miles off the beach — hogfish and grouper bites have been consistent lately. Recent reports from area captains indicate quality nearshore action with keeper fish coming to the boat.
Water temps in the area are starting to warm up as spring approaches, which usually improves activity on keeper grouper and reef species.
Traditional nearshore patterns (structure edges, reef patches, deeper grass lines) are being fished by charter captains with success.
? Likely Species Being Caught Nearshore
Based on recent local reports and Gulf catch trends in the Pinellas Bay / nearshore Gulf:
Hogfish – good numbers coming from reef structure.
Grouper (keepers) – some keepers and releases reported on bottom rigs near ledges.
Mangrove snapper & grunts – classic nearshore reef staples; productive on shrimp and cut bait.
Redfish, Spanish mackerel, sheepshead & trout have been noted in the general bay area and nearshore by guides, with Spanish mackerel showing up seasonally.
Tarpon can also be encountered in nearshore runs during the late spring run.
? 2. Best Bite Times & Tide Info for Nearshore Trips
Major bite windows: late morning to early afternoon and again late night.
Minor bite windows: early morning (around sunrise) and late afternoon.
These solunar times combined with tide transitions generally provide the best nearshore bites.
