Operated by Fish N FL · St. Petersburg, Florida
St. Petersburg, Florida — Maximo Park off Tampa Bay is the launch point for St Pete Offshore Fishing Charters, a private deep‑sea operation that takes anglers into the Gulf of Mexico. From 6‑ to 10‑hour trips, captains target bottom fish and pelagics ranging from grouper and snapper to mahi‑mahi, kingfish and blackfin tuna. Trips are private for up to four guests and include rods, tackle, bait, licenses and fish cleaning, making this an all‑in package for visitors staying in St. Petersburg or nearby Clearwater. The boat slips out of Maximo Park (Maximo Park, St. Petersburg, FL, St. Petersburg, FL 33711, USA) and the first minutes offshore tune your senses to salt, wind and an expanse of blue. Captains read currents and structure — artificial reefs, ledges and natural hardbottom — to put lines where fish feed. On longer trips the crew can run to deeper wrecks and distant banks when conditions allow. What makes this operator stand out is the private, personalized approach: small groups, a crew that knows local seasons and an all‑inclusive gear set‑up that lowers the barrier for travelers who want big‑water experience without a lot of prep. The company posts clear pricing — $1,900 for 6 hours, $2,500 for 8, $3,200 for 10 — and asks for a 20% online deposit. Groups of five or more are asked to call 813-956-5357 for availability and pricing, and questions can be emailed to [email protected]. Species vary by season — spring through fall bring snapper and amberjack, summer delivers mahi‑mahi and blackfin, winter can produce kingfish and cobia — and regulations determine what you can keep. Practical notes: the trip is open to most ages, sea conditions govern departures, and captains plan routes for safety. For travelers who want a focused chance at Gulf trophies, knowledgeable local captains, private scheduling and an all‑included setup make St Pete Offshore Fishing Charters a practical, high‑reward way to test lines against offshore Florida. Expect schools of baitfish near structure, occasional sea turtles surfacing and seabirds working the slicks. Crew members provide instruction for beginners, coach tactics for experienced anglers and handle fish care and cleaning so you leave with fillets ready for the grill. If you plan lodging in St. Petersburg, base yourself near downtown or along the barrier islands for a quick morning launch. Weather windows matter — longer runs to 100 miles are possible on calm seas, but shorter days can still produce memorable catches close to shore. Booking is straightforward: reserve online with a 20% deposit, confirm meeting details at Maximo Park, and arrive prepared with sun protection, a camera for action shots, and a cooler if you want additional drinks or snacks.
Rods, tackle, bait, fishing licenses and fish cleaning are included for up to four guests; pricing covers the whole boat.
