Tampa Bay Area Guide/Charter
 

I'm going to be in the Tampa Bay area the last week of March and was wondering if anyone could recommend a guide/charter.

Thinking along the lines of inshore/near shore...redfish, snook, grouper, king/spanish mackerel, cobia, goliath grouper.

I am a bit South of Tampa, fishing out of Venice, Fla. Florida Sportsman Magazine has a websites with forums for each section of Florida. Check it out.

Hey Skolmann
Idea for you: depending on the forecast, you might want to try and web search "Ozona" Fla guides. I have fished this area and there are oodles of coves to check out. Snook, reds, ladyfish and trout on light tackle is alot of fun. Coves and shallow backwaters are key during March as there are so many cold fronts that move thru and shut the fishing down right when you get there.
If you luck out and the weather is stable and warmer, then you can shift gears and do the gulf.
