Everything to Know About Booking a Fishing Charter in Apollo Beach

What are the best fishing charters in Apollo Beach?

Apollo Beach Fishing Overview

Apollo Beach is part of the greater Tampa Bay area and when it comes to fishing charters, there is no shortage of variety. Whether you want a half-day flats fishing trip, a multi-day Apollo Beach deep sea fishing charter, or anything in between, Apollo Beach fishing charters have it all.

The inshore fishing in Apollo Beach is some of the best in the state of Florida, and that's saying something! Leaving the bay behind gives anglers an opportunity to experience a variety of nearshore and deep sea species on our Apollo Beach fishing charters. With hot summers and moderate winters, the bite is always on, and with the variety of fishing charters Apollo Beach offers, there is bound to be something for everyone!

Apollo Beach Inshore Fishing

Just by looking at a map of v will get any inshore angler's adrenaline pumping. Visiting Apollo Beach to go inshore fishing gives anglers a unique opportunity to check off bucket list species just a few minutes away from the big city. v has all the features of a world-class inshore fishery: from mudflats, sand bars, and islands - to channels, cuts, and mangrove forests. This makes Apollo Beach's inshore community very biodiverse.

Apollo Beach's favorite fish, Snook, can be caught year-round, but the bite picks up from April to October. Red Snapper heats up in the summer and can be found only a short distance from the dock which is unlike most places they are found. The Silver King, or Tarpon, can be caught in the summer months when they invade Tampa Bay in search of schooling Menhaden or other baitfish. The formidable Redfish is the bread and butter of Apollo Beach fishing and the bite picks up from March through October. Other species to catch in Apollo Beach include sheepshead, speckled trout, and King mackerel in the deeper waters.

Apollo Beach Deep Sea Fishing Charters

Just a short boat ride out of the bay will bring you to some highly productive nearshore waters. Deep dropping or trolling around structure will bring Hogfish, Snapper, Grouper, Cobia, and other formidable fighters to our Apollo Beach charter boats.

Schools of baitfish hang out near the mouth of the bay in the summer, so that's a great place to start. There are also plenty of reefs & wrecks always providing a diverse catch to Apollo Beach deep sea fishing charters. For the full-day and extended day offshore trips of 40+ miles out, Kingfish, Tuna, Mahi-Mahi, and billfish can be caught.

Other Things to do in Apollo Beach

Once your day on the water ends, there's plenty to do in Apollo Beach and the Tampa area. Apollo Beach offers all the perks of a big city while still feeling like a small town. Close by are numerous beaches, both in the bay and on the ocean.

For the thrill seekers, Busch Gardens is a world-famous amusement park located in Tampa. Season and weather permitting, the Tampa Bay Rays baseball games and Tampa Bay Buccaneers football games are great for any crowd. Tampa also has a great seafood restaurant and bar scene for the 21+ crew.

    Trip: Bowfishing The Tampa Bay

  • ★★★★★
    He took us to a bunch of different spots and we shot a little bit of everything! He really knows what he’s doing and has the years of experience necessary for a legitimate good charter. He takes lots of photos and he cleaned our catch for us at the end of our charter. We will be back!

    Trip: Deep Sea Fishing 6hr Trip

  • ★★★★★
    Capt. Mike and deck hand Emily were great people to be with on our 4hr near/off shore fishing charter!! There were 6 adults on the boat and it offered enough space and comfort. Me and my daughter mostly sat inside the boat because of our known sea sickness and we still ended up having fun and catching fish. 37 total for our group!! Both Mike and Emily were polite, happy and helpful with baiting,catching, and cleaning our fish if we didn't want too. It was a wonderfully, memorable experience to have with my family. Thank you Mike&Emily and Fishing Experiences 😀A+
