About this activity

Captain Jason Dozier is a Florida native who grew up fishing and learning to navigate Florida’s back country and inter-coastal waterways. He has a U.S. Coast Guard 50 ton masters captain license which allows him to pursue his passion of sharing his love, respect, and knowledge of Florida’s pristine coasts.To Capt. Jason, putting his clients on fish is not just a job its a passion; it’s an addiction and it’s a rush. He will work diligently to make sure that you get to enjoy the beautiful waters he gets to fish on everyday just as much as he does.

We will be fishing in and visiting some of Tampa's most beautiful islands, creeks, and sandbars inside of Tampa Bay. Tampa Bay is the largest open-water estuary in Florida, encompassing nearly 400 square miles and bordering three counties -- Hillsborough, Manatee and Pinellas. The bay's sprawling watershed covers a land area nearly five times as large, at 2,200 square miles.

What you will do

4 hoursPrivate tour

There are usually three time blocks that we can accommodate you on a fishing charter. Morning, afternoon, and evening trips available. Trip duration also varies, but typically I offer 4 hour, 6 hour and full day fishing experiences We will discuss what time frames I believe the fishing will be best, additionally we will decide on how this will fit into your trips schedule. Once We have decided on a date and a time. I do private fishing charters only. What this means is I will take you, or your group out only. Pricing is as follows: We can legally only take up to six people per boat. We will meet at the marina at the date and time we discuss and head off to catch bait for the days trip. Once we catch bait, we will take a short boat ride and begin fishing for the duration time. We will be targeting inshore species such as Snook, Trout, Redfish, Mackeral, Jacks, Snapper, Sharks, and Tarpon. At the end of our fishing trip if you would like to keep any legal species of fish for dinner, I will fillet them up and put them in Freezer bags for you
