Whether you’re an enthusiastic beginner or a seasoned angler, fishing in St. Petersburg, Florida has something for you. From the prolific waters of Tampa Bay to the Gulf of Mexico’s depths in the distance, the diversity of fish species and fishing grounds here is something you won’t want to miss.
Inshore anglers can look forward to targeting Snook, Redfish, and Spotted Seatrout at varying points of the year. The summer months, however, are when the action peaks. This is when the annual Tarpon migration rolls in, giving anglers the chance to land one of these bucket list silver fish.
Additionally, smaller Groupers and Snapper varieties like Mangrove, can be hooked without going too far from shore. Species like the coveted Red Snapper and larger Red and Black Grouper specimens, however, will require you to seek out deeper waters. St. Petersburg is known for its thriving populations of these fish so it’s as good a place as any to book a charter and head out into the Gulf.
And if you’re a real deep-sea fishing enthusiast, moving out towards the bluewater can additionally put you on big Kingfish, Mahi Mahi, Tuna, and hard-fighting Sharks.
One of the main reasons fishing in St. Petersburg is so good is thanks to its location. If you’re a shore-bound angler, casting into Tampa Bay from Fort De Soto Park or the Sunshine Skyway Fishing Pier can put you on species including Redfish, Sheepshead, and more.
The easiest way to take in the action, however, is hopping on a fishing charter. Not only will you be able to move around to explore different fishing spots but you’ll also have a knowledgeable local captain on board. They’ll provide you with insider tips to help you land fish, as well as licenses for everyone on board, gear, and even lures and bait.

That one Tarpon that guy had under the bridge with no shirt was absolutely massive! Also getting a boat in the tierra verde mangroves is good for snapper. I also enjoy fishing at Arrowhead park. My buddy caught a big colbia there.
