Background
Step aboard Bait-N-Bite, where Captain TJ extends a warm welcome to all! Get ready for a fantastic adventure as we explore the wonders of Tampa Bay! Whether you're into light tackle, bottom fishing, or sight fishing, Captain TJ is here to guide you every step of the way. Capt. TJ knows the best spots to hook Snook, Redfish, Snapper, and more. See you soon and tight lines!
Techniques
Some of my preferred techniques include light tackle and sight fishing grass flats looking for your next biggest catch! We have a big advantage with a full size 10’ tower to see all the fish around us. Nothing is more exciting than watching the fish come up and slam your bait to make that reel drag scream!
