Captain Justin Clark Good Times Fishing co. I am a 6th-generation Florida native who was born and raised on the water. Growing up in Boca Grande, I was introduced to fishing at an early age by my father, who worked as a professional fishing guide in the area. From the time I could hold a fishing rod, I was learning the tides, seasons, and techniques that make Florida's inshore fisheries so special. Today, I bring a lifetime of experience to the waters of Tampa Bay. While the locations may be different, the style of fishing and targeted species remain much the same. I specialize in targeting Florida's most popular inshore game fish including snook, redfish, spotted seatrout, and seasonal tarpon, while also taking advantage of the wide variety of species that Tampa Bay has to offer. Guests fish aboard a fully equipped 22-foot Bulls Bay designed perfectly for both inshore and nearshore waters. The boat offers a comfortable ride while still allowing access to shallow flats, mangrove shorelines, and productive coastal waters where the fish thrive. After years working as a shop manager, I decided to turn my lifelong passion into a full-time career. Although I officially began chartering about a year ago, I bring decades of hands-on fishing experience. Book a trip and lets go make some memories!

    such a great time!

    2 Hour Trip – Sunset Fish/Cruise • 2 adults

    Much more passionate than i am knowledgeable or capable, i had a great time with Captain Justin, who made sure even my poor mom (who doesnt like fishing) had a great, entertaining time! He shared stories and past adventures with us and gave me great advice for catching fish and gave me enough space to apply what I learned as well. He also helped me with taking the fish off the line as I always worry about hurting them more and was very respectful about them. He seems well suited for beginners to professionals so I think you can feel assured whatever your level that youre going to have a great time!! I loved learning about the different fish we caught and cant wait to go back!

    First time fishing... had the BEST time!!!

    2 Hour Trip – Sunset Fish/Cruise • 3 adults

    My mom in her 60s and sister and I in our 30s went on this fishing trip, just to check it off our bucket list. Importanly, we are city folk, not oudoorsy people at all. We had never fished before and thankfully did not have touch the bait or the fish we caught. I did not get seasick at all, the water was very calm and scenery beautiful. For someone that does not know how to swim well, I felt VERY safe. Smooth jams were played while we fished, providing chill background music. Justin is an all-around solid family man that is passionate about fishing and sharing that passion with others. Sebastian was super chill and helpful. They made this experience, as enjoyabe as it was! Sooo glad we chose to go fishing with Good Times Fishing Co.! I can't say fihing will become a hobby of mine, because I don't want to touch the fish or bait, BUT I DEFINITELY would be excited to go fishing with Good Times Fishing Co. again. It was a really cool experience and their prices were well worth the experience.

    The Gold Standard for Fishing Charters

    4 Hour Trip – Night Time • 4 adults

    Captain Justin was hands down the best charter captain I’ve ever fished with. From the moment we stepped on the boat, his knowledge, professionalism, and great personality made the trip unforgettable. He worked hard to put us on fish and was always willing to share tips and techniques along the way. My wife and I had an amazing time and are already looking forward to booking our next trip with him. Whether you’re a complete beginner or a seasoned angler, Captain Justin knows how to create a fun, successful experience for everyone. Highly recommend booking a trip with him; you won’t be disappointed!

    Perfect Fishing Trip!

    4 Hour Trip – Night Time • 4 adults

    Justin was so awesome and his boat mate Sebastian! Very knowledgeable of the water and knew the perfect spots to catch the fish. With in seconds of throwing out the first cast we landed a nice sized speckled trout. They always made sure they had rods ready to go and bait ready as soon as we reeled in a fish. Justin is very personable and makes you feel like you've been long time friends. I highly recommend Justin if you want to catch good fish and have a good safe time on the water. Even if you know little about fishing, Justin will make sure you land a fish.

    3 Hour Fishing Trip

    3 Hour Trip • 4 adults

    Overall great experience with Captain Justin! Very personable person and made the whole experience that much better. Captain Justin got us on some Spotted Sea Trout and we cant wait to get the fish we caught cooked up. Capt Justin was even kind enough to give us a recipe for the Trout we caught. Overall 10/10 experience and highly recommend! Andrea would have given 6 stars if you brought your chocolate lab! If you want him to bring Kona make sure you ask him to bring her!
