Tarpon Springs, Florida
Reported 2 months ago
Tarpon Springs fishing has been excellent this May, with warm Gulf water temperatures and strong bait activity creating ideal offshore conditions. Red grouper fishing has been very productive on hard bottom and ledges in 20-35 feet of water, while gag grouper are showing up in better numbers closer inshore around heavy structure. Live whitebait, shrimp and cut bait have all been producing well, especially during lighter current conditions and calm morning weather windows.

Hogfish action continues to be a standout this spring, with quality fish coming from nearshore hard bottom in 20–40 feet of water using shrimp on light tackle....

Mangrove snapper fishing has also remained steady around reefs, rock piles, and artificial structure, with shrimp and small cut whitebait producing solid keeper catches. Overall, my anglers fishing out of Tarpon Springs are seeing strong bottom fishing opportunities and excellent variety heading into early summer.

    Captain Larry took our Girls’ Trip ladies out for an afternoon cruise. We spent time leisurely snorkeling beautiful reefs then relaxing on the sand bar. The time went too quickly but we never felt rushed. Larry was very friendly and accommodating to our group.

    Brian was excellent at finding the best locations to fish and knowledgable on how to catch them. From the start Brian was quick to get to the action and was very helpful with first timers. Enjoyed the trip and would choose Brian again for future trips.

    Jose was a great guy to spend the day with. Fishing was slow so we focused on iguanas. Could have filled up the boat with them if we had done our part. Did manage to catch a few fish too but the highlight was definitely the 🦎.

    Trip: Cast And Blast Combo!

    My guys had a great time on their fishing trip with Captain Nick! The trip was booked per my 10 year old son’s request, and he was accompanied by his step dad and grandpas. Nick was very pleasant and friendly, experienced, and treated my boy as one of his own. They all had a really great time and learned a lot during their trip. Thanks Captain Nick!

    Captain Branden was amazing! Our 14-year-old and his best friend went fishing with him, and both caught Mahi. After catching it, Brandon cooked it up for lunch. They said it was the "best fishing trip" they had ever been on (and they have done a lot). Will definitely book with him again. A great day!
