The mangrove snapper are always biting inside Tampa Bay and as the water warms up the bite will get better. Along with the warming water temperatures the snook and redfish will be firing up.

After the record Christmas cold front the water here dropped over 10 degrees in a couple of days. But, the Red Tide dissipated and left cleaner water. The local reefs(and hard bottom areas withing a couple miles) have been best. Lots of Key West Grunts, along with a steady sheepshead bite and occasional Redfish, Flounder and other stuff. The Sheepshead bite should only get better and the Flounder normally start going off as well. Should be a decent start to 2023 in terms of nearshore fishing over here out of Madeira Beach.

The weather temps dipped and found lots of bug mackerel and sharks off the beach. There’s Tripletail by the crab bouys but mostly shorts. Hoping the Kings will show up soon and hope to get one tomorrow. The reefs are holding Gags and Cobia.

Redfish bite is heating up with schools of fish roaming the flats as they move up the bay. Snook trout and pompano are also found plentiful on the flats. Mangrove snapper and grouper are biting well on the channel ledges and artificial reefs

    Wow! What a truly fun time. Charlie had everything ready and waiting when we arrived. He was kind, helpful, and most importantly fun. We had a blast trying to catch fish…they were stupid stubborn though. But no worries. Charlie would just move us to another spot. We will be back to Siesta Key….and we will be booking another trip w Charlie.

    Captain Charlie wasn’t nothing short of amazing! First time I took my teenage son with me fishing in salt water and it was one filled with life long memories. Captain Charlie ensure my son and I were at ease, and he made us feel like long time friends. Highly recommend!

    Trip: Inshore Fishing Trip

  • ★★★★★
    First and foremost, DJ is a great guy! We booked a 6 hour trip with him to hopefully have a chance at snook and redfish. Leading up to the trip, DJ communicated very well about where to meet and was flexible with the time to meet so we had the best chance at fish. On the water he worked hard to get us on fish and was very knowledgeable and personable. The bite was a bit tough due to the recent cold snap that hit Florida, however, he still put us on the fish and gave us solid opportunities at landing trophy snook and reds. We had a blast fishing with him, very much would recommend him for your fishing adventures in the St Petersburg/Tampa area!
