Come and explore the rich waters of Tampa Bay with Aquatic Escapes and make some great memories! Captain Jarrod Wallach is a second-generation captain, who has been fishing since his early childhood.

Get on board his 25’ Sportsman bay boat powered by a Yamaha 250 HP engine. The boat can accommodate up to 5 people who can all fish at once. When it comes to Tarpon and Shark fishing, 2 people can fish at once.

Capt. Jarrod will provide you with rods and reels, as well as live bait to make your trip as productive as possible. He has all the licenses you need, and he will make sure to clean your fish for you to take home.

Book anything from a short 2-hour trip up to full-day trips targeting specific fish. Choose a trip that speaks to you, and target Kingfish, Tarpon, or Shark on one of the specialized trips!

You can head inshore and explore the flats, mangroves, bridges, docks and rock piles in Tampa Bay. There are a lot of different species you can target here – Redfish, Snook, Snapper, Tripletail, Flounder, and Spanish Mackerel.

Everything you need for a great outing is some sun protection, food, and drinks. Tips are not expected but are appreciated, so if you have a good time you can tip your captain. The deck mate joins in to help when it comes to beginner anglers, and he works for tips.

Capt. Jarrod also partners with a few local captains in the Tampa Bay area. If you have a large party, they can set up a large trip with multiple boats. They can even organize a small tournament or a contest for you!

Grab some hats and sunglasses, bring some snacks, and get ready to explore the Gulf of Mexico with Aquatic Escapes!

From as early as I can remember, my dad had me on a boat with a fishing rod in my hands. At first, I was simply excited to have bait on my hook and hang out with my dad. As I grew up the fish got bigger and bigger… and I was hooked! Growing up in New York, we would fish for Fluke, Flounder, Strippers & Cod in the winter. We would also enter the occasional Shark fishing tournament. Fishing was, and still remains, a huge part of my life and it gave my father and me the time we needed to bond, before he unexpectedly left us in 2006. It was always my father’s dream to retire and use his captain's license to open a charter business. Every day, I strive to keep his legacy alive.
