St. Pete Beach Inshore Fishing Charters

Inshore Fishing Charter

What to expect on a St. Pete Beach inshore fishing charter

A typical inshore charter will be 4, 6, or 8 hours long and we will make multiple stops along the way fishing different locations near St. Pete Beach. Areas we will fish are grass flats, ledges, oyster bars, mangroves, beaches, docks, bridges, and more.

Target species will vary based on time of year but common species we catch are snook, tarpon, redfish, trout, flounder, sheepshead, cobia, mackerel, snapper, tripletail, grouper, pompano, jack crevalle, plus many more species. Follow us on Facebook or Instagram to see what we are catching currently.

Bait

  • Live bait will always be provided unless you would like to focus on artificial techniques (please let Capt Zack know in advance if you would rather use artificial baits).
  • Live bait will typically consist of pinfish, shrimp, crabs, and white bait (green backs, pilchards, shad, etc.)

 

Tackle

  • All tackle will be provided at no additional cost.
  • Tackle will typically consist of spinning rods and conventional rods with live bait set-ups or artificial lures pre-rigged.
  • Capt Zack will take care of tying all knots, baiting all hooks, and unhooking all fish unless you would rather do it yourself. Capt Zack will also teach you how to do all of this if you would like to learn or if you would rather just sit back and catch fish we can do that too!
