Reported 6 days ago
Bait is still solid in Charlotte harbor. Still plenty of big and small tarpon. Snook are plentiful as they begin their usual migration up the rivers and are fattening up. 50 to 60 FISH days are common right now and it will continue until we get our first cold front. Going forward we will concentrate on trout and sheepshead when it does cool down, but as long as the water temperatures remain good almost everything will bite

Fishing around Pine Island/Matlacha/Sanibel has been heating up with these slightly cooler temperatures as we transition into fall. The delayed rainy season can make dialing in conditions on the water a little tricky but with the right tide and some sun you can definitely find the fish.

Schools of redfish have been popping up all over the sound, as well as jacks and the snook are coming back in to head to their winter haunts so sight fishing them in skinny water is a blast right now.

    This was an amazing experience! I gifted it to my husband and his buddy. They found Captain Vasiliy knowledgeable, had a great time with him and caught quite a bit of fish with him which we all grilled up for dinner. Everything about the experience was A+. The guys hope to to this trip again with the same Captain. Thanks so much Captain Vasiliy for the perfect guys fishing trip! Rosanna Ambrosio I have a great shot of you with the guys heading out but couldn't upload. Will send to your cell and maybe you can :)

    Drew is a great captain. We tried for some larger snook, got a couple big ones on the line, but due to user error didn’t get them in the boat. We also got some snapper, trout, lady, cat and some other small ones. He was at the ramp early with fresh caught bait. He shared stores and we made good friends with him before we left.

    Fantastic experience! Captain was extremely accommodating. Tons of Action and a nice bag of game to take home and eat.. top notch equipment the guns are real deal too of line. We’ve been coming to Estero 1-2 times a year for 10 years and so a trip every time and I’m glad I finally found someone I can book every year and have a great experience! Can’t say enough.

    Trip: Cape Coral Inshore Excursion

  • ★★★★★
    I brought my son down for a weekend of cast and bkast. We soent all day Sunday with Captain Vasiliy aka The Russian Redneck. He runs a very nice wellcraft center consolw. Boat is in great shape with lots if room. We met at the boat launch around 0745 and after quick introductions we shoved off. A quixk stop at a marina baitshop on our way and the day began. We hit an area on tge way out fir maybe 30 min to catch some live baitfish and puahed offshore around 8-9 miles. Over our 8 hour charter we moved to several locations. If a spot got slow, pulled anchor and off to another. I didnt count total fish caught, but several dozen grunts, at least 15 grouper, a hog fish, some others im nor familiar with. We lost a couple big fish. Guessing they were goliaths. I will absolutely go fish with him again. If youre looking fir a friendlt captain who keeps you on the fish this is the one.

    We had a great time out on the water with Captain Jerry! He made sure we had ice, water, and plenty of bait. The weather kept us inland a little bit but he was flexible and moved to where the fish were. Our boys were very excited to catch two sharks, two pufferfish, a catfish, and several other types of fish, some of which we were able to keep for dinner. Thanks Captain Jerry!
