Tampa Hogfish Fishing Charters

For 6 hours you'll have the time of you your life. We can fish for Snook, Redfish and Spotted Seatrout on the flats or go deep water for Grouper, Cobia, and Grey Snapper. You'll also get to meet some of the locals, dolphin, manatee and various sea birds. No children under 8 years old.

This trip is one of the captain's most popular. You'll head out and have the chance to catch keeper-sized Grouper, as well as Snapper, Sea Bass, Sharks, and other reef species. This is perfect for people who want more than a half day but are not quite sure if they would like a full day offshore.

A 50-mile run to the blue water chasing lane/vermilion snapper, red grouper and a few other tasty guys!

This extended half-day will allow for 6 hours of action on the water. You'll get a chance to explore waters a bit farther offshore and try your hand at both bottom fishing and trolling. You'll be targeting Snapper, Grouper, Hogfish, Spanish and King Mackerel, Cobia, Triple Tail, and Shark.

Can't go all day but want just a little more time on the water? Get yourself a couple of extra hours on the water with the 6 hour trip. The trips are flexible depending on the customer's needs and what fish are biting. Depending on the season the captain and crew will give you a chance to chase Grouper (winter months only), Cobia, King Mackerel (seasonal), Mangrove Snapper, and Hogfish (winter months only) along various other reef species. Fishing locations out to approximately 15-20 nautical miles.

This trip offers more time to target your bucket list fish and maybe get some extras for dinner or lunch. On this particular trip, Captain Joe likes to mix it up which always produces big smiles and happy clients. The starting time is 8:00 a.m.

Making memories .... that's what can expect with a full day on the water. Anglers of all ages are welcome – and every skill level. Whatever you preference - we can fish inshore, Tampa Bay or up to 12 miles offshore. Plenty of water and ice are provided (bring lunch if you want). A chance to catch your dinner – or just some rod-bending action.

Perfect for the family with non-divers. This trip features fishing with rod and reel as well as a 2 tank dive for those who are certified open-water divers. Customers have the option to spearfish if they already have experience spearfishing in the gulf.

During fall and winter, hog fishing within 9 miles of St. Pete Beach is outstanding. As cooler water temperatures set in, hogfish move into shallower waters to feed, providing anglers with increased opportunities and reduced travel time. Light winds during this season make for smooth outings, allowing for quick runs to the prime fishing spots. This is the perfect time to fill your cooler for a delicious fish fry, making the most of a great day on the water while enjoying the beautiful Gulf scenery.
