Calico Fishing Charters is a Tampa fishing charter service that offers guided fishing trips for Redfish, Tarpon, Snook, Sea Trout, Mangrove Snapper, Shark, and many more species. Capt. Murphy specializes in personal instruction on light tackle fishing, and because of this, he will only charter 1-2 people per trip. With Capt. Murphy you will explore the Tampa Bay area, and have a blast catching fish.

Capt. Murphy will provide a great day on the water with the finest equipment and gear. You should plan on bringing rain gear, polarized glasses, hat or visor, sunscreen, and plenty of food and drinks. Capt. Murphy will provide a cooler with plenty of ice.

Please remember that it does get very HOT fishing in summer in Florida – so also be sure to bring plenty of water to stay hydrated. In the winter you’ll want to wear layers; a light jacket is perfect for the quick boat ride to the fishing grounds and wind chill.

Calico Fishing Charters offers half day (4-hours) and full day (6-hours) fishing trips for two anglers. When you climb aboard Capt. Murphy’s 18 ft. Center Console you’ll see that there is a casting platform, poling platform, and live well. There is also Safety Gear Certified by the United States Coast Guard (including life jackets and First-Aid Equipment if needed).

Inshore Fishing in Tampa is a great way to spend your day. We can fish Old Tampa Bay, Hillsborough Bay, or Tampa Bay and reel in some great catch! There is so much coastline, and many fish species to target, any time on the water is a great day!

Fishing for over 37 years, Capt. Murphy has fished from Alaska to the Caribbean and everywhere in between. Even when he’s not fishing with customers, he’s still on the water scouting the fishing spots. Whether you want to sit back and relax with your line in the water, or fish hard for a certain species, Capt. Murphy will make sure you have a great day of fishing!
