About your Clearwater area Charter Fishing Trip

Most of our Clearwater area fishing charters begin early in the morning. We meet at the dock, stow away our belongings, and head out. I provide the license for fishing our waters for children and adults alike. I also provide ice and drinks like water and sodas, however, you are encouraged to bring whatever food and drinks you might prefer. You should also bring lots of sunblock, (even in winter), sunglasses, a hat, and shoes that can get a little wet.

Now we are off and on our way to a nearby flat to net our baitfish, usually scaled sardines, also called greenbacks. We will chum with a mixture of ingredients to attract the baitfish. Then, after seeing plenty of them in the chum line, I will throw a large cast net on them. Once we've gotten them in the baitwell, we are ready to go fishing the backwaters of our gorgeous Clearwater area.

I will supply all the tackle you will need to fish all day long. I like to use Shimano Reels, G-Loomis Rods, and Owner fish hooks. I line all my rods with Power Pro fishing line and Fluorocarbon leader material. These products are the best on the market. However, some people like to use their own tackle. That's O.K. too, as long as you are open to some suggestions on rigging it for the local Clearwater area gamefish.

Throughout the day we may see many different and rare sights. Porpoise playfully foraging on schools of Mullet, Spotted Rays leaping high into the air, or Ospreys diving to grab small fish right out of the water. The areas surrounding Clearwater and Tampa Bay are some of the most beautiful in the world, and there is no better place to see them from than the deck of a boat on a fishing charter trip

After catching plenty of gamefish, it is time to head in. As the sun sets in the distance, we get to the dock and I begin filleting the catch. Thanks for joining me. It's been another wonderful day on the water.
