Saint Petersburg Fishing Charters with YACHTFISH

Table of Contents

Taking kids fishing is what it is all about! I remember my first fish at the age of 2. On a recent fishing charter out of Saint Petersburg with YACHTFISH Fishing Charters, angler Scout caught a HUGE Kingfish in Tampa Bay. We set out on a Sunday afternoon to check a local spot and tow a few baits around. After only 5 short minutes of trolling we had a good hit screaming line off of the reel. Ten minutes later Scout subdued the large King Mackerel boat side and we casually tail grabbed the fish for a quick picture. Weighing over 40 pounds and over five feet long was a great catch for the 6 year old youth angler. YACHTFISH Fishing Charters loves teaching kids how to fish and introducing them to the amazing fishery we have here in Saint Petersburg. The 2018 Kids Fishing Camp will start soon so get your kids signed up TODAY! #YACHTFISH #fishingcharters #saintpetersburg #tampabay #kidsfishing #takeakidfishing #fishingcamp #startemyoung #mypassion #loveit #kingfish #allsmiles #youthangler #girlsrule
