Bowfishing has been a passion for Captain Kelly since he was introduced to the sport in 1998. Having retired from the US Army, he spends his time on the water where peace and tranquility exist. From there the captain chose to make memories not only for himself but for others to carry on the passion that was shared with him so long ago.

    Great first time bow fishing

    5 Hour Trip – Bow Fishing (PM) • 2 adults

    The trip was great. The captain is extremely friendly and we had a great time. This was my first time ever bowfishing and I definitely want to pursue it in the future. Definitely would recommend doing this. I hope bring my wife and daughter back soon.

    Night outing with Captain Kelly from St. Pete Bowfishing

    5 Hour Trip – Bow Fishing (PM) • 2 adults

    My dad was visiting from CT and I wanted to take him out bowfishing. Found Captain Kelly - and I’m so glad I did. An outstanding evening! Plenty of shooting with multiple species. Captain Kelly and his first mate, Mike, were excellent. Extremely knowledgeable about the sport, the species, and the area - as well as being great guys. My dad has been bowfishing for over 40 years, and he said it was the best experience he’s ever had. I will definitely be booking with Captain Kelly again!

What's biting with Bowfish St Pete in St. Petersburg

Tarpon season winds down, although you can still catch them over rocky bottoms. They love the Stone Crab season because they can eat like kings that they are. Just watch out for the crab lines once you're hooked!
