Some great shore fishing near MacDill in the saltwater too. Picnic Island Park and across the peninsula to Ballast Point Pier which are both free.
-
Try Lake Tarpon. Two ramps - Chestnut Park on the southeast side of the lake and Anderson Park on the northwest side off US 19. Google them for more info. Good ramps if you have a boat and Anderson is open 24/7. Chestnut opens at daylight and closes about 5:30 pm.

Everything pretty much controlled by "if you have a access to a boat" Most
inland lakes down here require watercraft not much bank fishing compared to
northern lakes.
