Florida Fishing Company — Local services in Tampa

I have been fishing with Randall Shaw for over 7 years and if it got any better I couldn't stand it. From the Bays of Louisiana catching speckled trout two at a time till your arms hurt, to the marshes and ponds of Louisiana catching grown redfish that fight so hard your wrists are crying out for relief. He is an outstanding Captain both technically and personally. Randall is a pleasure to fish with and is committed to not only putting his clients on the fish of their choice, but showing them a good time full of fun while doing it. He is truly one of the few captains I have ever met that love what they do and are both passionate and dedicated to doing it. His "whatever it takes program" when it comes to catching fish is a breath of fresh air in today's world and shows in his results. He has recently relocated to the Homosassa , Florida area where I had the pleasure of fishing shallow water for grouper with him and my brother Mike. What an experience!! You have to put this on your bucket list of "have to do things". We were trolling in 15-20 ft. water with deep diving plugs and "BAM" you get whacked so hard it likes to pull you and the rod out the boat. LOL. At one point we stopped over a deep water crevice and when my brother Mike started letting his bait down, he got a hit that he described as the best hit of his life and Mike has been fishing for over 60 years. The rod hit the boat so hard I thought he cracked the gel coat. " Never landed that one, probably a Goliath Grouper". We caught 25 grouper that day and it was one of my most memorable fishing trips ever and I have been fishing all over the world . To say I recommend Randall Shaw for your next fishing trip is the understatement of the year. He is the best overall Captain I have ever had the pleasure to fish with and over the years has become a personal friend of mine. Do yourself a favor and check him out. I promise you won't be disappointed. Paul G....

My son and I went fishing with Captain Randall Shaw with FL Fishing Co this past November out of Anna Maria Island and hands down the best fishing charter we have ever been on! We caught so many jacks and Bonita. While we were fishing we saw so many sharks out in the water. So Captain Randall topped off the trip with a huge bull shark! Bucket List item was to always catch a shark and although my son was the one to reel it in, it definitely checked it off the list! I highly recommend FL Fishing Company and Captain Randall!

Truly hands down a great Captain, when you step on his boat he has everything prepared for your time on the water. Captain Randal knows the waters extremely well and the moment you step on the boat it’s action packed. From catching redfish, snook and trout on the flats to running out searching for Tarpon on the beaches. It’s always been a fantastic time on the water with him. Thank you Captain Randal. Definitely will be...
