Shallow Point Charters offers Tampa fishing charters hosted by Captain David Beede, who has run charters and explored Tampa Bay’s 450 square miles of waterways since 1998. David loves fishing as both a profession and a passion, knows all the best local spots, and has taken first place multiple times in Tampa Bay and Clearwater fishing tournaments.
Captain Dave runs a 26-foot Gause Built Boat comfortably fishing 6 anglers, featuring 26 feet of open fishing space, a 9-foot beam, wide high gunnels, a custom 14-foot tower with 16 rod holders, twin 10-foot PowerPole shallow water anchors, and high-end fishing equipment for a dry, comfortable ride. All skill levels are welcome — beginners, experts, family excursions, and corporate fishing groups alike.
Guided charters target Tarpon, Snook, Snapper, Redfish, Sharks, Grouper, and much more across inshore, deep sea, guided fly fishing, flats fishing, and specialty trips like Tampa bowfishing. Every trip is fully private. Tarpon is among the most popular sport fish targeted — these “silver giants” are known for fierce head-shaking and acrobatic leaps once hooked, while Redfish and Snook put up a great fight on light tackle or fly for flats-focused anglers.
The business maintains one of the most extensively documented fishing report archives researched in this directory, with monthly trip updates dating back to 2012, and is backed by a strong sponsor roster including Quantum, Yeti, Maui Jim, Power-Pole, and St. Croix Rods.
For anglers of any experience level near Tampa Bay, Florida looking for a deeply experienced, tournament-winning fishing charter, Shallow Point Charters offers a well-established operation with Captain David Beede.
