Booked a charter for the day with Will for an afternoon of trout/redfish fishing. Will is a great captain and had us onto fish within minutes of arriving at our first location. Pulled in some great trout and reds among other species and had a wonderful day on the water. Great boat, lots of different locations and he went out of his way to make sure we had a great time. We even got to see some manatees on the ride back. When we are back in the area we will be going back out. Thanks Will!

I have gone in several fishing chartera in Tampa Bay over the past 10 years. But I have to tell you with sincerity that this has been the premier one I have ever been on. We fir st chartreed with will four years ago during the summer. My first impression of the charter was top notch product, cleanliness, service, and knowledge of the bay.Over the last four years we have have become good friends and the fishing has only gotten better and better. Every year we come down will puts us on the fish each and every spot we go to. I would strongly recommend picking tampa bay fishing charters with captain will shook if you are looking for an excellent day of fishing and a great environment as well.

Took my 13 year old son on a trip with Will back in February 2013. Will has a beautiful boat that is perfect for this kind of fishing, and really knows his stuff.
A recent cold front had the fish in the bay off their feed, but Will took us to one of his honey holes up the river and the bite was on!
My son had never caught a snook, but I think he ended up with 4 up to 15 lbs or so.....in addition to numerous sea trout and redfish.
I do alot of fishing up North, and Will is a pleasure to fish with, for both beginners and experienced alike. Will is patient and low key, and I will definitely be looking Will up again next winter.
Highly recommended!

My husband and I wanted to just have a fun day, fishing is one of my husbands favorite past times, although our trip didn't land us the BIG CATCH the time out on the waters of St. Pete with Captain Will was the BEST TIME we have had in along time, we will definitely book another trip with Captain Will in the very near future, he knows where to go, how to keep it fun and is very pleasurable to spend time with, THANKS FOR THE BEST DAY!

My wife & I book a half day fishing charter with Captain Will. The morning started well with snook and trout, but then the fishing slowed. Captain Will's perseverance and expert guiding landed us on a huge school of red fish. We were catching fish on every cast and doubled up four times. It was his expertise that put us on the fish, I know this because once we got back to the dock the other fishing charters did not have to same success... Awesome boat, guide and fishing !!!!

Not know what we wanted to do while we had a day break from our business convention in Tampa. One of my co-workers suggested a fishing charter. We found Capt Will Shook on the Internet and couldnt of have had a better day. Capt Will picked us up bright and early at the boat ramp as we booked an all day charter. He was ready for us with great looking gear, cooler full of ice and live bait he caught before he came to get us. We boarded his spotless boat and he took us to different spots all over the bay, we caught our fill of snook, reds and even saw a huge school of cobia that will gave us some facts about. All day on the water was the best idea my co-worker could of suggested. Capt Will even cleaned our fish for us!!! His great personality kept us entertained all the way up to the end. I will defiantly book Tampa Bay Fishing Charters next time im in town!!!

My brother and I went out for a six hour fish and had a blast. Captain Will was ready to roll about 15mins early with everything we needed and a cleaner than clean boat. He is a great guide but also a great guy. We learned a ton and of course caught some fish. Don't waste your time calling around, you get what you pay for. Captain Will is worth every penny.

Best fishing experience hands down. Not only do you catch loads of fish but Will is very attentive and helpful every step. Whether you are experienced or this is your first time, Will makes you feel at ease and makes the whole experience a and memorable. This was my first time fishing with him and would refer him to friends and family. Overall AWESOME experience and a must try!

Great fishing trip, nice fellows.

We drove to the Tampa, FL pier to tour the area and go fishing and parked at a Premier Venture Parking location on Brush street. Do not park at any of the Premier Parking Venture locations. An employee ran over our luggage in another car and destroyed the contents inside and they refused to pay for the damaged items. We contacted the Corporate office and they ignored our calls and cheated us out of the payment for the items they damaged. All the items inside were destroyed and they would ignore our phone calls and not pay for any of the damaged items. These people are dishonest and will not pay for items they destroy. Stay away from all Premier Parking Venture Locations in Tampa, FL, they are dishonest people. Contact me with a message if you want more information.

I fished with Capt. Will on several occasions. Every time we caught a lot of fish. He was always willing to answer the questions we had and told us about the fish behaviors.I can't say enough nice things every time was a great trip.
