 Whether it is fishing the fertile flats of Clearwater's St. Joseph Sound with a top water plug, jig fishing the rich grass flats of Tarpon Springs, live bait fishing a giant school of redfish in Tampa Bay, or sight fishing for tarpon along the beaches of St. Petersburg, our area offers a great variety of fishing opportunities and locations. To take advantage of all the fishing possibilities and customer requests, I keep my boats on trailers and take you to the best fishing available at the time of your charter. I use many different techniques and fish both artificial and live bait. Our inshore waters are home to many large, hard fighting game fish. Snook, trout, redfish and tarpon are our primary target species, but we also have excellent fisheries for cobia, permit, goliath grouper, sharks, king mackerel, spanish mackerel, and jack crevalle (see Our Fish and Their Seasons). Try fishing for a West Coast Grand Slam, a snook, trout, and redfish in one day. And when conditions are right you can even catch the ultimate Super Grand Slam by adding a tarpon. |
Boca Grande Tarpon Charters A tarpon fishing charter at Boca Grande Florida is a truly unique experience and a “Must Do” on a fisherman's wish list. Boca Grande, on Florida's Gulf Coast, is the Tarpon Capital of the World. Each spring and summer, tarpon migrate to the beautiful waters of Boca Grande Pass and Charlotte Harbor in greater numbers than anywhere else in the world. The spectacle of this congregation of magnificent tarpon is one of the natural wonders of the marine world. To observe this event is a thrill in itself but to catch a giant tarpon is the ultimate fishing experience. Capt. Jeff guides for giant tarpon fishing at Boca Grande and Charlotte Harbor from April through July. Join Captain Jeff for a tarpon fishing charter aboard one of his custom rigged tarpon boats. (see Tarpon Fishing at Boca Grande). Because of the great demand for tarpon fishing at Boca Grande you must book early. |

GAFF MAGAZINE article “Fishing Partners” by Matt Draper, Gaff Magazine Editor Summer 2004 “Many Saltwater fishermen in Florida fancy themselves great anglers and some, actually are at the top of their game. Only once in a long while does an angler come along that other fishermen envy and even boast about. One such gentleman is Captain Jeff Hagaman.

The “Good Old Days” of Florida Gulf Coast Fishing are......NOW!! The conservation and environmental efforts of the citizens of Florida have brought back the "Good Old Days” of sports fishing on the West Coast of Florida. Our water quality and fish populations are better than they have been in decades. The many bays, flats, rivers, marshes and barrier islands of the Gulf Coast of Florida offer you an opportunity to battle large hard fighting tarpon, snook, redfish, permit, trout, cobia, goliath grouper and many other gamefish. Large fish on light tackle on the shallow water flats are the ingredients for exciting sight fishing with drag screaming runs and spectacular jumps. Check out “Our Fish and Their Seasons” for more information on Tarpon, Snook, Redfish, Permit, Trout, Cobia, Goliath Grouper, and the other game fish you will encounter on a Florida fishing charter. |
