I've been passionate about shark fishing for as long as I can remember. I grew up targeting sharks from Florida's beaches, and that passion has only grown over the years. For me, it's about far more than catching big fish it's about understanding these incredible animals, respecting them, and helping others experience them the right way. I'm dedicated to responsible catch and release practices and treating every shark with the care it deserves. I love sharing my knowledge with anglers of all experience levels and showing people the excitement, challenge, and beauty of land based shark fishing. There's nothing like watching a shark take a bait from the beach, and I'm proud to help others experience it safely and responsibly.

    10/10 Experience

    4 Hour Trip – Shark Fishing • 4 adults • 3 children

    Captain Jeremy and his first mate AJ were incredible: -Profesional -Prepared -Engaging, I learned a ton My 3 sons and I went out and had the time of our life. We appreciated them explaining the why behind everything. We did the 4 hour evening booking and hooked into a 8 foot bull shark, and a 6 foot lemon shark. We were able to hook, fight and land these sharks with their relentless guidance and support. I recommend them highly if you're taking your family out to make some memories or if you're a serious angler and what the best to put you on some large sharks.

    First charter with jeremy

    4 Hour shark fishing trip - 8:00 PM

    On the day of the charter, Jeremy sent me the address of the meeting spot for the day once arrived. Jeremy came up to the car with the consent forms for being on a social media post and the waiver for the charter after we signed the forms and paid him. He gave us an invoice and invited us out onto the beach where there was an already set up canopy with food, drinks, and music that he tailored to our preferences once on the beach, Jeremy showed us how he beats the hooks how he gets the baits out into the water and the drone he uses once the baits are out we were able to sit and relax and talk while we waited for a shark about an hour in a shark took our bait and we all got up to go see what was happening. Jeremy set the hook and guided me and taught me how to reel in the shark properly. Once we got the shark on the beach we quickly got the hook out of the shark and got our pictures Jeremy taught me how to handle the shark and how to get the pictures I wanted without getting hurt. If you’re looking to catch big sharks without the hassle of buying Bait and tackle book a charter with Jeremy. He is incredibly professional, and I would recommend him to anybody. You can’t go wrong with Gulf Coast Reel Runners.

What's biting with Florida Shark Fishing in St. Pete Beach

Big game fish like Sailfish and Tuna are becoming scarce, but you will find plenty of King and Spanish Mackerel offshore. Tasty fish like Flounder and Gag Grouper are swimming closer to shore.
