Captain
Andrew Crabtree

Member since December 2017 St. Petersburg, United States
Background
I have always had a huge passion and love for fishing! I have fished and traveled around the country experiencing some of the best fishing around and Tampa Bay holds some of the best fishing possible. Having first fished the Tampa Bay area in 1999, I immediately fell in love with this diverse and productive fishery. I thoroughly enjoy teaching the art of fishing to my customers! I have always wanted to be a charter captain to share the fishing lifestyle and experiences with others!
Techniques
I specialize in inshore and nearshore fishing for snook, redfish, trout, grouper, snapper and more! Preferred style is live bait fishing for a variety of game fish, and artificial lures when conditions dictate. From fishing mangroves and grass flats to dropping baits on some nearshore wrecks and ledges there are a variety of fishing opportunities in Tampa Bay!
