Hillsborough County, FL

Based in Tampa, Westchase, Carrollwood, Lutz, Odessa, Brandon, Valrico, Riverview, Apollo Beach, or Temple Terrace? You’re perfectly placed to hit the Gulf’s skinny water. Skinny Water Charters runs year-round inshore and nearshore trips tuned to tides and season: snook along mangroves and docks, redfish tailing on oyster bars, speckled trout over grass flats, plus seasonal shots at tarpon, Spanish mackerel, kingfish, and cobia when the bait schools push through. Clearwater departures make logistics simple and get you onto productive water fast.

Trips are family friendly and fully outfitted: licenses, quality tackle, live bait, ice, and post-trip fish cleaning included. First-timers get a relaxed, confidence-building plan; seasoned anglers get a focused hunt with sight-fishing opportunities when conditions allow. Choose half, three-quarter, or full day and we’ll match the game plan to your goals, weather, and the bite window.
