September flats fishing around Tampa - solid day in gator country

Hot bite and happy crew! We started our September morning at 7:00 am cruisin' the flats around Tampa with partly cloudy skies overhead. The weather stayed interesting throughout the day with some rain rolling through, but that didn't slow us down in gator country. Our group was ready to get after it on the shallow water, and we had a solid day planned for the backcountry fishing. We guided the crew through some prime flats fishing as part of our Rate Card new Fees package.

With our gear rigged and ready, we focused on sight fishing, poling, and shallow water anchoring techniques. The approach worked well for the conditions we had, and we made the most of our time on the water.

The Rate Card new Fees trips can accommodate up to 8 anglers, making it perfect for both solo adventures and larger groups looking to experience Tampa's flats fishing. September is prime time for this type of fishing down by the glades, and the shallow water techniques we use really shine during this month. Whether y'all are first-time flats anglers or seasoned veterans, this style of fishing offers something for everyone who wants to work the backcountry waters. The combination of sight fishing and poling gives anglers a chance to really understand how these flats systems work, and Tampa's waters provide the perfect classroom for learning these techniques. If you're thinking about coming out for some flats action, this package delivers exactly what you're looking for in terms of authentic shallow water fishing.
