Fishing Guide Tampa Bay Reviews


  • I have fished with captain Jason on a few occasions. Always had a great time and caught tons of fish. His experience and knowledge of the water is impressive to say the least. I would definitely recommend booking a charter if you want to catch fish in the bay on a bad a** boat. 5 stars!

  • WHAT A TRIP !! Captain Jason , is professional at what he does! I would definitely choose him as my guide again! He knows the spots ???? “ FISH ON “ . …

  • The best guide experience of my life! Jason and Jordan know how to put you on some fish! I will book everytime!

  • Captain Jason is an absolute pro. I’ve been on multiple guided fishing tours in the state of Florida and I’ve never had a better experience than the one I had with Jason. In addition to getting us on fish, he was incredibly helpful with instruction about where to cast, and how to set our line when fishing different types of fish. He was friendly, patient, and generous in the wisdom that he shared with us. My dad and I had a great day of fishing with him and would gladly do it again.

  • Captain Jason and captain Jordan are the best!! Been booking them for over 9 years and never a bad day of fishing!! Always catch em!! First class operation!! Beautiful boats and top notch equipment!! Don’t bother shopping around!! Best on the bay!

Making Tarpon Fishing in Tampa Bay Less Frustrating

Tarpon in Tampa Bay keep anglers guessing. One morning, they’re everywhere. By afternoon, they’re gone. Chasing them means long stretches with nothing, then a sudden shot at a fish that might not stick. These fish don’t reward shortcuts or luck. Every hookup is hard-won. Tracking tarpon starts with the tides. Incoming water stirs up bait. Tarpon move in, looking for an easy meal. Miss the tide, and you’re casting into empty water. Water temperature shifts, and the fish move again. Bait pods break the surface, birds dive, and suddenly the action explodes. ...
