Captain
Joe Masi

Member since January 2022 St. Petersburg, United States

Background: Captain Joe's been fishing since around 2 years old and hasn't looked back. He comes from a family of fishermen and was taught a lot at a young age. He has two younger brothers and they love to fish together when they have time. Captain Joe's done a lot of fishing and still enjoys it. Now that he's gotten a little older, he enjoys seeing others catch fish and teaching them, and seeing them get the passion he has is more rewarding than you can imagine.
Techniques: Live bait fishing with quality tackle light and heavy depending on what you're targeting but Captain Joe's favorite species to target are Tarpon and Tripletail. For both he uses similar techniques of sight-casting the right bait, and watching them eat is just a bonus.

5 Hour - Tarpon & Shark (AM)

Our trip with Capt Joe was amazing. I had texted him when I booked the trip that I was on the fence between a tarpon or a permit trip. Ive caught Tarpon before but never had a chance at a Permit. Capt Joe made the decision to head to his permit spot when the tarpon weren’t cooperating. Im so glad we did! About 30 min later the fight was on, and trust me thise permit are tough! The result for me was a fish of a lifetime. I also caught a nice gag grouper and a 30+ inch Snook on another spot on... More

Had a wonderful experience with Joe Masi from Masi Boy’s Fishing today with my sons. We are avid fishers from Long Island and going forward we will be spending plenty of time fishing in the St. Pete’s area with Joe. Fish were plentiful and a wide range of species in only a 3 hour trip. Captain Joe was both very knowledgeable and helpful to my young sons in teaching them the waters and how to fish. See you again in a few months! Thank you Captain for the trip!

My 2 sons and I wanted to catch a big Tarpon and the Masi Boys charter delivered big time. Joe Masi was a great guide and we learned a lot on this trip. A 1 hour snd 20 minute fight certainly raised blisters on my son Adrian’s hands but Joe Masi coached him through the whole fantastic experience.
