Inshore Tampa Bay Tarpon Fishing

Awesome day fishing in Tampa Bay today. It was very hot and humid. Slick calm conditions today in the bay. Had my clients Patrick and buddies out today for a little pre bachelor party and Tarpon session. Conditions were great and fishing is still hot. Ended up going 1-4 with a quad header today. So much fun with good people. Book your trips.

TAMPA BAY TARPON FISHING

Great day of fishing with my clients Brian and family from Missouri. Beautiful day to be out on the water and a fantastic tarpon bite we had. Ended up 1-3, but that’s all we needed as we had to battle all of them at the same time. So much fun watching these guys scramble for fish. Good times. Book your trips. Fishing is still hot.

Tampa Bay Snook Fury

Very hot today on the water. In the middle of our adventure for the linesider, it started to downpour. Let’s just say we got soaked. Didn’t stop the bite though. Ended up catching a bunch of snook and trout. Biggest today was 28 inches. Weather is beautiful and fish are chewing. Book your trips.

TAMPA BAY TARPON FISHING

Another epic Tarpon bite in the Tampa Bay. Had my Chris and his wife out from Texas today. They told me they wanted to catch a shark today but I talked them out of it when I told them how good the tarpon bite has been. We didn’t have a bait in the water for a min before being hooked up on there first poons. Each of them caught a couple and then just wanted to jump them after. We ended up catching 4 and jumping 20 and lost count on how many bites we had. Pretty amazing fishery in the Tampa Bay. Bite is still on fire so book your trips.
