    Experience one-on-one backcountry fishing trips into Tampa Bay's remote waters.

    Who We Are

    Backcountry Fly Charters was established from a passion for backcountry fishing in the most remote locations accessible around Tampa Bay. Embracing the beauty of old Florida, our fly fishing trips immerse you in serene waters that transport you back to simpler times. With a small skiff, we navigate to spots that are rarely fished. Designed for only one angler, we focus on providing you with an unforgettable experience and the thrill of catching fish in these hidden Tampa Bay locales.

      WHAT TO EXPECT

      These trips are designed for the ultimate angler. No fancy skiff with all the bells and whistles; we will depart on a small skiff specifically designed to reach the secluded backwaters for an authentic backcountry fishing experience. Anglers will be supplied with all tackle depending on the mission they choose. A small cooler will be on board for any water and small food items they want to bring along.


      The Backcountry Experience - We will set out at the crack of dawn and head for the remote regions in search of baby tarpon and snook. Generally, the tarpon are early risers and will shut down early as the heat of the day gets cooking. With your choice of fly fishing or spin fishing (artificials only), our fly fishing adventures always promise a great time in the backwoods of Tampa Bay.


      Docklight Missions - We will depart at dark and search nearby docklights for snook, tarpon, and redfish. These artificial-only trips will have you hooked; you will need to know how to throw the fly or cast spin gear to catch these elusive fish.


      Winter Low Tide Redfishing Trips - These Tampa Bay fishing trips are a blast! Stalking redfish in the shallows and watching them tail is an unforgettable experience. These trips are generally best in the winter when tides are at their lowest. This type of fishing requires precise casting to hit these fish tailing.
