They are conveniently located just off the Alafia River boat launch which has an access to the shipping channels of Tampa Bay.

This store was amazing, the owner was extremely nice and told us everything we needed to know and…read moreneeded to fish. I am from Michigan so I have never salt water fished, and he was extremely helpful. We were told what kind of hooks were best, the type of bait, and how much of everything would be best. For 3 dozen shrimp. For four weighted circle hooks, and 3 dozen shrimp, $26 is not bad at all and a very reasonable price.

Friendly and helpful. I stopped in to check this place out and they were very friendly and helpful.read more

If I could give zero stars, I would. This was one of the worst customer service experiences I've…read moreever had. I came in expecting a professional and respectful interaction, especially from a business owner, but instead I was met with rude, dismissive, and unprofessional behavior. When discussing my firearm, I mentioned a price point around $350, which was immediately shut down without any real conversation. I was then told a much lower value based on a previous sale that didn't seem comparable. When I declined the offer and said I would go elsewhere, the situation escalated. The owner became hostile, raised her voice, and handled my property in a careless and disrespectful way by running outside and throwing my gun in a ditch next to the building. That level of behavior is completely unacceptable. Overall, the experience felt very unwelcoming and disrespectful. Regardless of the situation, basic professionalism and respect should be a standard in any business.

Captain Chris was AWESOME... VERY personable, knowledgeable, accommodating, and fun. He took us…read moreon a 4-hour tour, got us to several great spots to catch our dinner, as well as a really jumping place where we caught over 20 Snook. While we were bending our rods and pulling fish out left and right, we did see other charter boats around, but it seemed like we were the only one catching anything. When we were all fished out, he got us back to the dock, and cleaned our fish for us. I know the next time we make it to Tampa, we will be booking with him again!
