Did a special trip with friend, Capt. Pat Horrigan of the Kayak Fishing Kayak series over the weekend. It started as a photo shoot for some sponsors  but the sight of Reds all over quickly changed our plans a bit. Green Key is a beautiful area located in Port Richey, Fl. The water there is very clear and very shallow with endless opportunities at sight casting fish. the estuaries are mostly spring fed with a

This time of year I spend a lot of time paddling in beautiful Ft. Desoto. Set just inside the mouth of Tampa Bay, Ft. Desoto is known for producing every species the bay has to offer. August/September are excellent months to target big bruiser Redfish in the Ft. On the new and full moon phases these fish will school up and feed aggressively.

Fished Upper Tampa Bay with Capt. Shawn and john in search of Snook in our trusty yaks and Found them. it all started with me sight-casting an 18" sitting shallow on an oyster bar. After that the bite was on! Over 22 Snook were caught and safely released up to 31". D.O.A. paddletail in pearl kept us on. We also managed to land a dozen reds to 18", flounder, lady fish and some PHAT Trout. We caught all of these on a shorter half day trip too!!

  It didn’t take long for Dustin Robison from Ohio to figure out why Tampa Bay is considered one of the best fishing locales in the country. During our 2 day trip, Dustin, landed over 7 different species of fish. Sheephead, Trout, Lizzardfish, ladyfish, Whiting, Snook, Redfish and even a cool little Pufferfish kept Dustins’ rod bent.

What another great day of fishing in Tampa Bay. It doesn’t get much better than running Tampa fishing charters for a living. Today was another typical fishing trip around Ft De Soto Park. This is where you can do some of the best fishing in Tampa Bay and is a huge hub for Tampa fishing charters.
