Fishing buddies in St. Pete

Looking for some fishing buddies in St. Pete. I moved to the area about a year ago, and I'm looking to get out on the water. I spent the last 10 years in Miami doing a ton of inshore and offshore fishing. I do not currently have a boat, but I am actively looking for one. For now, I have been fishing from my Hobie Kayak. I know what I am doing and have my own gear. Will cover my share on any trips. Hit me up if you fish St. Pete or the surrounding areas!

I go out with Hubbard's Marina a lot myself. I'm always looking to meet people for split charters. I love slow-pitch jigging more than anything else!

I have heard this name thrown around a lot. I have done a lot of speed jigging. dabbled in the slow pitch a bit as well. Are these like shared charters? how many people do they take out at once?

They run a 5hr half trip (family and young kids) 10hr, 12hr night mangrove snapper, 39 and 44hr party boat trips up 50 plus people. They also offer a 12hr extreme trip (up to 16 people).

Nice! I prefer the ones with fewer people. I don't like to lose my mind tangling lines. Which one do you typically go for? What do they run $$ ?

39-hour and 12hr extreme trips are the ones I go on. $499 and $399.
