Inflation has hit every individual and business hard nowadays. From rising prices of groceries to fuel, many businesses have either been forced to raise their rates to keep up with inflation or worst, shut down temporarily or permanently.

The fishing charter industry in Tampa Bay is no different. Even amid the summer months, which is the peak season for charter boats in the area, businesses have been forced to raise their prices or cut profits. With gas prices alone skyrocketing, it has cost expenses to rise as high, with some owners contemplating shutting down.

Not only has inflation negatively impacted fishing charter business and their prices, but their customers as well. People are now more focused on saving for their necessities that they have less money to travel and join charters.

“The business has slowed down quite a bit compared to the past years and it gets worse as inshore and offshore fishing charters have to deal with the lower customer rates and higher operational expenses,” says Tim Stocks, owner of Tampa Bay Fishing Charters. Before, the summer season would be fully booked for weeks to months ahead. Today, some weekends are still open and there aren’t many calls taken.

“Despite everything happening, we still hold hope that prices start to lower, particularly gas, and that we see more people looking for open dates.” Tim Stocks says. Here at Tampa Bay, there are many different species to catch inshore and offshore, with hopefully locals and tourists still joining charters to get a lot of action.

Inflation has hit every industry badly, and fishing charters are no exception. If gas prices are high for those on the road, charter captains also have their fair share of problems with the rising expenses of maintaining business operations. Offshore fishing charters can burn over 100 gallons of gas in a single trip.

The high gas prices and increase prices for bait and tackle are forcing charter captains to raise their prices and potentially loose customers due to the higher cost to fish. Combine that with the fears of the looming recession and it has stirred big waves in the fishing charter industry.

“Inflation has definitely slowed business down, even more so since the pandemic. It isn’t as busy as it was before, and it may be due to the fact that people are more focused on budgeting for other things than on fishing trips at the moment,” says Tim Stocks, owner of Miami Fishing Charters.

Some charter captains have reported that the cost of operating their boats is almost about to double this year with fuel prices alone. Half-day charters per person that once cost $200 on average have now been raised to $250, while half-day private charters for six people went from $1,100 on average to $1,400.

With that said, there is still some hope. “Despite what inflation has done to businesses and individuals, there are still people who continue calling to join or book fishing charters. We’re hopeful that we see more locals and tourists booking charters, but we’re still unsure of what summer will hold for inshore and offshore excursions,” says Tim Stocks.
