Carl Snodgrass, Captain at Lucky Lauren Charters, LLC.

Come fish the waters of Tampa Bay with Captain Carl Snodgrass—a lifelong angler with over 30 years of local experience and a deep love for the outdoors. Whether you’re a seasoned fisherman or it’s your first time casting a line, Carl brings the same passion and dedication to every trip, making sure each guest leaves with great memories, great stories, and hopefully, great catches.


Tampa Bay is a one-of-a-kind fishery that blends freshwater and saltwater habitats. It’s where bass fishing meets redfish runs, where mangroves and bridges hide snook, and deeper channels hold grouper, snapper, and more. You might fish shallow grass flats one hour and bounce bait over reef ledges the next. One cast could land a sheepshead, and the next could hook a hard-fighting tarpon or a sneaky tripletail. With over 400 square miles of water to explore, you never know what’s coming next—and that’s exactly what makes Tampa Bay so exciting.


Capt. Carl runs a 24’ Blazer Bay powered by a reliable 300 HP Mercury outboard. The boat is spacious, stable, and rigged with top-of-the-line St. Croix and Shimano gear, paired with Penn Clash or Shimano Ci4+ reels. All tackle, bait, fishing licenses, and fuel are included in your trip. Just bring whatever food or drinks you’d like—we’ll keep it cold in the onboard cooler.


Families, first-timers, business groups, and dedicated anglers are all welcome aboard. Capt. Carl’s goal is simple: to give you his best effort every trip, no matter the tide or target. He’s not just here to take you fishing—he’s here to share his love for the water and the joy that comes with every bent rod and screaming drag.


Beyond fishing, Carl is proud to be a licensed U.S. Coast Guard Captain and a member of the Coast Guard Auxiliary. He supports marine conservation, volunteers with Tampa Bay Watch, and takes pride in keeping these waters clean and healthy for future generations.


Book your private charter today and enjoy a day on the water with someone who knows every bend, flat, and fishy pocket of Tampa Bay. From the first breeze on the ride out to the last cast of the day, Capt. Carl will work hard to put a smile on your face—and maybe a fish (or five) in the cooler.


Let’s go fishing, and let’s make it memorable.
