Capt. Derick was born in Hialeah, Fl. and spent all his summers in Puerto Rico as a kid where his addiction for fishing began. Soon after moving to Tampa Bay he was introduced to kayak fishing and has not stopped since. His passion for fishing lead him to guiding where he can share that passion with others. In addition to guiding, he also spends his time writing reports and articles for several online resources.

Kayak fishing has slowly become one of the fastest growing sports in the industry. There is no better way to enjoy the sport as well as the natural beauty the state of Florida has to offer. How else could you all of this and more than on a peaceful, guided kayak fishing tour?
Kayak charters are much more inexpensive than powerboat charters and tend to be much more relaxing.So call me, book a trip and enjoy a true getaway, as I guide you from existence and to an unforgettable journey on the pristine waters of Tampa Bay!

The Man. Great for the Tampa backwater. Want to learn how to kayak fish or just get better? Call him
Had a great time. Derick Burgos was very patient in showing me how to use artificial lures and thanks to him I am now a fishing machine. Thanks Derick
Derick catches fish…period! Best kayak guide in the Tampa area, no contest!
