West Courtney Campbell Causeway, Tampa, Florida, 33615
Join Bag’Em Fishing Charters for a day you won’t forget!
Captain Bucky is a Florida native with over 25 years of fishing experience in Central Florida, and now fishes the waters of Tampa Bay! Embark on an unforgettable inshore fishing charter aboard his spacious 22′ bay boat, suitable for up to 4 passengers.
With expertise in live baiting and fishing with lures, Captain Bucky ensures an exciting and rewarding fishing adventure for all! On our trips we’ll target species such as Redfish, Snook, Trout, Tarpon, and more!
Although I am a conservationist and believe in catch and release, upon request I will gladly clean and bag your catch, but I highly advocate only taking enough fish for dinner that night.
Captain Bucky will provide everything you need for a successful day on the water – including fishing licenses to tackle, bait, photos, and enough iced bottled waters for everyone. Alcohol is permitted, but please NO glass bottles, and please drink responsibly. The captain can and will terminate the trip without a refund if he determines that the passenger(s) are no longer safe to have aboard. All photos taken will be texted or emailed to clients as soon as conveniently possible.

We fish with Captain Bucky every year, he has yet to disappoint. He is a 10/10 guide even for advanced anglers to sharpen their fishing skills.
