Chad Hickman, Captain at El Capitano's Offshore
Identity VerifiedEl Capitano’s Offshore is a top choice for fishing in Tampa Bay, FL. The charter’s name comes from Capt. Chad Hickman’s years as a United States Coast Guard where he was nicknamed, El Capitano. Born and raised in St. Petersburg, he spent his entire life fishing the waters of West Florida. He’ll know the best places to fish in the area.
Go deep into the Gulf of Mexico in the safety of our 32 ft. SeaVee motorboat named the El Capitano. The boat can accommodate up to 6 guests and is outfitted with the proper sailing and fishing hardware like GPS, fishfinder, VHS radio, and a live bait tank, to make fishing trips both safe and seamless. And with a 45 mph Mercury engine, you’ll be fishing in Tampa Bay’s best spots, in a blink of an eye.
Experience a stress-free fishing trip as the captain provides all the necessary equipment like rods, reels, and tackles. On your next Tampa Bay offshore charter, Capt. Chad can help you target Snapper, Grouper, Mackerel, Shark, and Amberjack.
Come aboard El Capitano’s Offshore, for a great day of fishing with family and friends.
