Background
Hi. My name is Captain Ronnie Hayes. I was born and raised in St Petersburg FL. I have spent most of my life fishing the beautiful waters that surround this amazing place I call home. The fishing opportunities here are endless. My greatest passion as a fishing guide is taking kids fishing. The most important part of my job is making sure they leave with big smiles. So what do you say, book your trip today and let's go catch some fish!!!
Techniques
My favorite time of the year is in the summer time. There is nothing better than fishing under the Skyway Bridge hooking a Giant Tarpon and watching the explosion as she jumps into the air. We get to do this from early April to the end of August. When I'm not fishing for the silver king, you can find me anchored up on an inshore flat, searching for those big redfish schools that come cruising down that mangrove shoreline. Some of the best snook fishing happens in these back water canals and grass flats along Tampa Bay. Our trips include live bait and artificial. So what do you say, let's go fishing!!!

The fishing has been pretty good lately with some higher tides in the evening. With the added rain the water has cooled down some getting these fish to really get active. As we approach September, the fall patern will be in effect and the inshore fishing will get really good. Lets Go Fishing

When we got to our spot, the tide was so low i thought we were gonna have a hard time getting on the fish. Its a good thing the Panga floats in a foot of water!!! Once we got our baits in the water the bite was non stop. Lots of refish and snook action!!!

The summertime fishing in St.Petersburg has been exceptional in the early morning hours and late evening before the sun sets. Cut bait on the bottom has been the go to. Moving water has been the ticket. If your looking to do some summer fishing your best bet is early morning or late afternoon. Book your trip and lets go fishing!!

The waters in Tampa Bay have the perfect temps now for an unbelievable fishing experience from the shallow water grass flats to the pristine beaches in our area. The redfish bite is on fire. Live baits have been the trick on an out going tide with lots of snook mixed in the action. As we approach the month of May the fishing in Tampa Bay should continue its normal yearly cycle with amazing catching of trophie size fish. What do you say, Lets go Fishing!!! Now Booking
