The Tampa Bay area includes Tampa, St. Petersburg and Clearwater, Florida and is the year-round home to one of the best inshore and deep-sea fishing destinations in the country. The 3,190-acre Weedon Island preserve on the west side of Tampa Bay is an aquatic upland ecosystem supporting a diverse population of bird rookeries and animals. It also happens to be the spawning grounds for many of the fish found in Tampa Bay and the Gulf of Mexico.
Whether you’re looking for Tampa Bay, Clearwater or St. Petersburg Fishing Charters, YACHTFISH has you covered for inshore and deep-sea fishing options. You’ll find snook, redfish, trout, mackerel, snapper, flounder, cobia, tarpon, tuna, amberjack, grouper, kingfish, wahoo, mahi and more. With over 25 years of experience and the equipment to get you on the fish fast, your YACHTFISH team guarantees an incredible experience and fish every time.
YACHTFISH Fishing Charters is perfectly located at the downtown St. Petersburg Municipal Marina, which is smack dab in the middle of the Tampa Bay area on the west coast of Florida. No matter which direction you take from the marina for your private inshore or deep-sea fishing charter, you’ll be surrounded by some of the top fishing spots in Florida and great scenery.
When you leave the marina, you will have a chance to see the famous Sunshine Skyway Bridge, Fort Desoto Park, Weedon Island Preserve and Egmont Key. If you’re lucky, you will also enjoy the pods of dolphin, manatees and other wildlife indigenous to the area.
As a bonus, you will be able to visit some of the famous landmarks and attractions from your pick-up point at the marina. The new St. Petersburg Pier, Straub Park, Dali Museum, Museum of Fine Arts, St. Petersburg Museum of History and the Vinoy Hotel & Vinoy Park are within sight and walking distance. The waterfront is full of shops, galleries, bars and restaurants. Fresco’s Waterfront Bistro is right next to YACHTFISH in the marina and caters to YACHTFISH Guests by cooking their catch and providing a relaxing waterside venue after a successful day fishing.
