Tampa Bay Fisherman’s Paradise
$250.00
Tampa Bay is Florida’s largest open-water estuary, extending over 400 square miles and forming the coastlines of Hillsborough, Manatee and Pinellas counties. It harbors a rich and diverse assemblage of plants and animals including prized sport fish like snook and tarpon. In spite of its size, the bay is an average of only 11 feet deep.
The bay and the sparkling beaches of the surrounding barrier islands attract nearly 5 million visitors a year. Sport fishing, boating, kayaking and wildlife watching are increasingly popular activities among both visitors and residents. The richness of this environment makes Tampa Bay a highly sought after destination spot for fishing, both inshore and offshore. Redfish, snook, trout, and tarpon abound, but there are many other species of game fish that call Tampa Bay and its surrounding waters home - it truly is a “Fisherman's Paradise.”
There is nothing like the thrill of a tarpon exploding out of the water after the hook set. The excitement of fishing for a “silver king” will have your body pumping with adrenaline. Trophy tarpon in these waters are 150 to 200 plus pounds. There have been tarpon landed in the bay that hit the scales just under 250 pounds!
