There’s nothing quite like a Tampa Bay sunrise from the deck of a skiff — the water still glassy, the birds working a bait pod, the whole day full of possibility. That’s the moment we live for, and it’s the one we want to share with you.
Be Salty Fishing Company was born out of a lifelong love of the water and a simple belief: that time spent fishing is time well spent. We run our charters aboard a 2023 Action Craft Skiff, built for the shallow, fish-rich flats of the Tampa Bay area, with room for 1–3 anglers to fish in comfort.
Whether you’ve got a few hours or a whole day, there’s a trip for you — Half Day (4hr), 3/4 Day (6hr), or Full Day (8hr). And when the sun goes down, the fishing doesn’t have to stop: our Night Trips (4hr) work the docklights and bridges where the big ones come out to feed.
Come as you are, whether it’s your first cast or your thousandth. We’ll handle the rest. “You are the salt of the earth.” — Matthew 5:13
