trip description for Tampa Bay Shark Fishing in Tampa

If you're on the hunt for top-notch Shark fishing on Florida's Gulf Coast, look no further! On this charter fishing trip, Captain Christopher will take you on the water of Tampa Bay to catch a variety of Shark species, including Bonnethead, Blacktip, Nurse, Atlantic Sharpnose, Bull, Hammerhead, and more! Tampa Bay is a massive ecosystem that consists of multiple brackish water waterways connecting the freshwater rivers with the saltwater Gulf of Mexico. Many sharks depend on these mild brackish water conditions to breed juvenile sharks, and the Tampa, Ruskin, and Apollo Beach estuaries are perfect environments for this. Captain Christopher practices the use of both live and dead natural baits in conjunction with his “Secret Chum Formula” on most Shark trips. This combination is fine-tuned to catch Sharks, which detect the chum from far away, and then go crazy for the baits! Once on of these powerful fish grabs your hook, it's game on! Sharks are famous for their stamina and toughness, and it can take twenty minutes or more to haul in a big one. Captain Christopher will be by your side, offering helpful advice and tips for fighting one of these toothy fish onto the boat. Captain Christopher operates a custom-built 21’ Clearwater 2000CC bay boat. This sleek vessel allows for a comfortable drift through the Tampa Bay flats. There’s also a lot of fishing space and a shaded T-top for hot summer days, plus a Bluetooth stereo, so feel free to bring your favorite playlist! Read More

    Great work Captain Phil. Had a good time on the boat and caught fish all through the 8 hour day. Even when the bite slowed down captain phil ran all over to get back on the bite. We had our trout limit within the first hour of the fishing. He showed me allot of tips for casting under mangroves. Looking forward to another trip soon.

    Had a fantastic trip with Captain John in July of 2023. Went for a morning trip on our honeymoon, caught tons of fish, had a lot of fun. John and his first mate were very competent, personable, and provided an excellent experience.
