Top Tampa Fishing

What an AMAZING fishing excursion! 🎣🔥 We had an absolute blast from start to finish. We caught so many fish, but the highlight of the entire trip was catching the biggest fish we’ve ever caught. Talk about a trophy catch! Captain Joe made the experience even better. Everything was fun, exciting, and memorable. If you’re looking for a fishing adventure where you can catch fish, have a great time, and make memories you’ll be talking about for years, this is it. I highly recommend! We will be back.

Joe was great. Fun, friendly, and knowledgeable. You could tell he works hard to make the day as good as it can be. It was our first time fishing with him and we will definitely use him again next time we charter in Tampa.

Garrett was our guide, and we could not have asked for a better Captain. There were four of us: Grandma (me), Grandpa, and our two grandsons, ages 10 and 11. Of all the things we did in Florida during our vacation, by and large, the boys enjoyed their fishing experience the most. These boys are MN boys, and they are accustomed to fishing. But Garrett made it SO FUN for these boys, and they were able to learn new tricks and catch bigger (and more) fish than what we catch regularly in MN. He took the boys to "hot spots; he was helpful, knowledgeable, skilled, and an absolute gem with people. I would highly recommend this personalized excursion. Well worth the time and money!

This excursion was incredible. 6 of us had the best experience with Capt. Garrett. He knew all the spots where the fish were biting. We landed speckled trout, sheep's head, Lady fish, and red fish. Everyone caught something, but the best part was the ease of it all. Garrett made it fun, shared the lay of the land and had an awesome playlist.This will definitely be an adventure we'll do again!

Captain Wes Wildman is very knowledgeable about the best fishing spots in the area. In one afternoon we were able to find and catch more snook, trout, redfish, salt catfish and Spanish Mackerel than we could count. We also saw manatees, tarpon and sharks. We had a wonderful experience. I highly recommend.

We had a great time. We were scheduled for Saturday and the weather was not good so we stayed on standby. We were lucky to have Sunday morning open and the weather was perfect. While we didn’t catch any keepers we had a good time. My son caught a shark and I caught a little trout. The captain had great communication with us and did his best to get us on the water.

Had a great day fishing. Would do again for sure. We didn’t catch a bunch but had a great time. Showed us some nice places along the coast while hitting different fishing spots around the area.

Our guide Joe was the best. Caught plenty of fish and had a blast. He was very professional and I recommend using him.

Captin Joe knows where the fish are! We caught all kinds of different fish like Mackerel, Snook, Spotted and Silver Trout, Lady fish and Needle fish. We would definitely book another trip with Joe.

Great experience. Got us on fish in Tampa Bay and we caught like 40 in 3+ hours'ish of actual fishing. Jason was knowledgeable and fun. Great morning on the water.

Such a wonderful trip! Captain Buck knows his playing field. He put us on fish first thing and everywhere else he took us too. We caught snook, crevalle jack, lady fish, Spanish mackerel, speckled trout, catfish and about a two and a half ft shark. Captain Buck is not only knowledgeable, but is also extremely personable and attentive. He'll let you do as much or as little you're comfortable with. At the end he cleaned and bagged the couple of fish we actually kept. We had a wonderful day!!

Captain Joe provided a unforgettable experience He was very personable and helpful with everything. He was well prepared with bait and helped with every aspect of this fishing trip

Highly recommended. We’ve been fishing with Joe numerous times, we always catch a ton of fish, he’s extremely knowledgeable and an amazing captain. Lots of guides are looking to save money on gas, time, effort, etc and will stay in a spot way too long, Joe is the opposite, he’s always hunting for the fish and is focused an making sure the guests have an unforgettable experience.

Captain Joe is the best out there! Very personable and professional! Something he said has stuck with me “Love the life you live and you’ll never work a day”! He got me on my very first Tarpon and face grab which will be an unforgettable memory!

Went with Joe on the skinny water boat and chose to do artificial , to test my skills on one of the toughest fish in Tampa. Not only did Joe put us on the reds but I learned quite a lot to refine myself as an angler going forward. With options for the big boat for larger groups and live bait or the skiff for skinny water artificial shots Joe has everything you need. 10/10 would go again.

If you’re looking for THE best fishing charter in the area look no further! Slobby Joe’s Charter went above and beyond on my charter. Not only does the guy know the areas around the water like the back of his hand, he even takes it to the next level to make sure you’re having a great time. I lost count on how many fish we landed. What more could you ask for? Extremely knowledgeable captain who also provides great vibes on the boat. Do yourself a favor and book a charter! I’ll be going back again, and sending all my friends and family his way!
