Best Fishing Yachts

Fishing question! What kinds of fish can you catch offshore in the Tampa Bay?
I’m visiting family next week in Ruskin, Fl which is on the Bay. My father is staying on his 40 foot yacht but can’t take it out because he didn’t get it insured yet so I’m going to fish off a pier about a 1/2 mile away. What can I expect to catch and what is the best bait? What is a cheap but decent pole kit that I can pick up at somewhere like Walmart? I don’t want to spend a lot because no one else fishes and I don’t want to bring it back on the plane. When I fished on the Gulf in the past I used shrimp. I think live bait is the best. Also, how much is a temp. fishing license right now for out of state visitors and where are some places that I can get one? If you don’t know, I can research that when I get there. If you live near Ruskin,Apollo Beach, Sun City, St.Pete, or Tampa where are some “hot” spots to fish? I see a lot of people on that huge causeway coming from Clearwater/ST.Pete. Isn’t there a fishing area there???? Thanks!
