Yup it’s true folks Tampa Fishing Charters Drop the ball again!!!

You may be asking yourself at this point, Well what did you guys do?

We’ve been dropping the ball a lot lately.  What this means is our anchor rode is professionally spliced with a red buoy on the end of the line connected to the boat.  Just above the red buoy we have a quick release system that is proprietary to our company.  When we are fishing in and around the beautiful waterways and estuaries in The Tampa Bay Area, we frequently hook up with larger species of fish including Tarpon, Sharks, Cobia, grouper, etc.

When we connect with one of these types of fish, we immediately Disconnect the anchor rhode, using our quick disconnect system and DROP THE BALL!!! When this event occurs it’s kind a like a fire drill.  The captain and the first mate encourages everyone in the boat to reel their lines up as fast as possible so that we can get the angler who is hooked up to the front of the boat so that we can chase this trophy fish down for a successful landing and photo to be cherished for a lifetime.
