Captain
Evan Denis

Member since February 2019 Belleair Bluffs, United States
Background
Growing up in the Tampa Bay area, I have always been around or on the water. Inshore and Tarpon fishing are my true passion and I love every minute while I'm out on the water. I got my captain's license in 2017 and helped mate and run a larger boat for offshore fishing trips and always knew I wanted to guide people to their next trophy catch inshore.
Techniques
Light tackle inshore and tarpon fishing is the style of fishing I truly enjoy doing. Watching a +100 pound tarpon is something that is hard to explain and has to be experienced to get a true feeling of what it is like. Also, redfish and snook are my favorite fish to target on the flats.

Spring Fishing Heating Up
Spring Fishing Heating Up
Apr 17, 2024 Belleair Bluffs
As we get into our spring time fishing patterns, we continue catching plenty of trout, quality redfish, and snook more often as a the water warms up. Some kingfish, Spanish mackerel, and Bonita have been near shore, but that has been limited due to the heavy winds weโ€™ve had this spring. A few have started to show up, but we havenโ€™t spent the time to fish for them yet. The peak of their migration is just a few weeks away.

2022 Winter and Spring fishing
2022 Winter and Spring fishing
Jan 31, 2022 Belleair Bluffs
Through the next few months as things begin to warm the fishing will continue to get better. February, March, and into April the sheepshead fishing will be great as they get ready to spawn during those months. Pompano should start to show up as well in March and into April, using shrimp and pompano jigs to catch them. Last March we had a great kingfish season, when a giant school of them were just offshore out of Clearwater Pass. The redfishing has been good throughout the winter and we should start to see some larger schools show up on the flats soon as the temperatures increase. The snook have been a little tougher to find as water temps have fluctuated a lot, but as more consistent weather come the snook fishing should be good throughout spring into the summertime. The seatrout fishing has been great this winter, some days landing over 30 fish in one spot using artificial lures. Looking forward to take you out on your next fishing adventure.
