Welcome to the Tarpon Capital of the World
When anglers talk about fishing Tampa Bay, one species always takes center stage: Tarpon. Known as the “Silver King,” Tarpon fishing in Tampa Bay is world-renowned, attracting anglers from across the globe to experience this legendary fishery.
Why Tampa Bay Is a Tarpon Hotspot
The unique estuaries, tidal flows, and strategic location of Tampa Bay make it the epicenter of Florida’s largest Tarpon migration during the spring and summer months. Each year, countless Tarpon migrate north to the bay, providing incredible fishing opportunities and the chance to check this iconic species off your angling bucket list.
Tarpon Facts:
- Sizes range from 50 to 200 pounds.
- They combine the speed of a bonefish, the acrobatics of a sailfish, and the power of a marlin.
- Tarpon fishing is strictly Catch and Release, preserving the fishery for future generations.
There’s nothing quite like the thrill of watching a triple-digit Tarpon explode on your bait just feet from the boat, followed by breathtaking leaps and drag-screaming runs. It’s a fishing experience that leaves even seasoned anglers “weak in the knees.”

Captain Kyle will give YOU the experience you want.. for the first timers he will bait and cast for you and all you have to do is reel those babies in to the boat and smile with them squiggling in front of you… to the pros who are looking for some sport/trophy photos… this is the charter captain for you! His equipment & boat are top notch.. really comfortable and zippy. Snook, red fish.. and even a 60 pound ray … In fact my husband had to go out and buy the rig that he supplied to us on the boat we liked it so much. The captain has lived his life on the bays and coves of St. Pete.. he will sniff the fish out for you. It’s always an exciting day on the water with Kyle. Two years in a row we have booked with him and we can’t wait to do it again… Hey tell him Mo says Hi… maybe he’ll give us a deal next year;)”

I have done three trips with Capt Kyle and have had great success every time. Kyle is extremely experienced and it’s clear he truly knows how to tap in to all types of fishing opportunities.
I’ve done trips with just me targeting snook and redfish plus a very fun trip with my wife and young daughter landing them each their first snook followed by “action fishing” for mackerel and later sharks.
Capt Kyle knows where to be and how to maximize your fishing experience at each spot. I would recommend Native Sportfishing and will be booking trips in the future.
