Tampa Bay Fishing Charters with
Captain Dylan Rogers Herrera
St. Petersburg, Florida
Captain Dylan has been running fishing charters full-time for the past four years, but his roots in Florida waters go much deeper. Born and raised here, he grew up fishing the bays, flats, and offshore grounds that make this region world-class. Prior to becoming a Captain, he proudly served in the United States Coast Guard — experience that sharpened his seamanship, safety standards, and deep respect for the water.
In addition to operating Meat Wagon Charters out of St. Petersburg, he's also a certified boating instructor with Freedom Boat Club, helping others build confidence and skill on the water.
Today, his focus is simple: put clients on quality fish and create unforgettable days on Tampa Bay. He specializes in the pristine and renowned inshore, nearshore, and offshore waters this area is famous for.
Clients fish aboard a 25' Dorado Bay powered by a 300HP Mercury, fully equipped with dual Power Poles, Spot-Lock trolling motor, and a tower helm for maximum visibility and positioning. It's a versatile, capable vessel built for putting you on the fish.
