Tampa Bay inshore fishing charter guide Captain Kenny Smith

Kenny is a born and raised Tampa native. He started as a child fishing bass ponds with his father, quickly picked up quite the technique for it and his love for fishing grew. As he got older he picked up inshore fishing. It wasn't as easy as the old ponds in the neighborhood, but he learned quickly, researching info, techniques and learning Tampa Bay's estuary. From North to South of the Bay, he knows where to go to put you on fish.  

Conservation is close to his heart and supports the Tampa Bay Estuary Program. His favorite fish to catch is the Linesider, AKA the Snook, especially the big ones!

Tampa Bay inshore fishing charter guide Captain Cristian Minami

Cristian was born in Havana, Cuba in 1988, then moved to Tampa, Florida where he was raised walking distance from Upper Tampa Bay. There his father helped him discover a love for fishing that would last a lifetime. Cristian fished the area until he knew every creek, oyster bar, and channel but, most importantly where the fish would stage up during tidal change. One of his favorite places to fish is Double Branch Park, this area offers great site fishing opportunities for Snook, Redfish and Speckled Trout using fly or spinning set ups.

Captain Cristian Minami finds joy in sharing his knowledge and teaching proven techniques of fishing for Florida’s most sought after inshore species of fish.
