TYPE OF FISHING: Welcome to Shell Point Charters, offering half and full day
charters on the waters of Tampa Bay. Experience flats fishing for snook,
redfish, trout, jack crevalle, and cobia on light tackle. If you are interested
in wade fishing, here's the place to be! Tarpon fishing is also available during
the summer season. Come aboard and enjoy the beautiful scenery of backwater
mangroves and all the abundant marine wildlife.
If your idea of a great time is wading up on a sunning snook, tossing a live
pilchard in front of his nose and watching the water explode with the striking
snook attacking the bait, then give us a call. Being a native of Florida, I have
spent many hours on the waters of Tampa Bay and would love to share my knowledge
of the marine environment with you and your guests.
There are few things that compare to the anticipation of a school of redfish
pushing a wake right toward you as you stand ready to place the bait in their
path. As the bait dances frantically on top of the water trying to escape the
coming reds, the scream of the drag and bend of the rod reveals it was too late
for the escapee. Now the predator turns to prey as you fight to not let him
escape!
During the summer months large adult tarpon arrive in Tampa Bay from their
wintering grounds to the south. This is prime time for battle with these silver
kings. Free-lining large threadfin herring around structure with good current
will ensure frequent hook-ups. The frantic jumps of these silver Goliaths will
cause quite a frantic jumping in your own chest.
If you are looking for a wonderful time catching the fishes of Tampa Bay, please
give us a call or send email.
