Tarpon season is in full swing here in Boca Grande, and June is always one of the best months to chase the Silver King. The fish are here in good numbers, and they’ve been aggressive and ready to eat.

We’ve been seeing plenty of opportunities and some incredible battles on
the water. If a tarpon has been on your bucket list, now is the time to make it happen.

I still have a few dates available in June. Reach out to book your trip and experience one of Florida’s most exciting fisheries before the season slips away.

    Capt. Isaiah was THE MAN!! Had us limited out on snappers within an hour then we headed to the snook honey hole! We caught around 30 fish and had an absolute blast! Cooked half our catch for dinner the same day! While he filleted fish he let me and my boys feed huge tarpon by hand! Just an amazing day on the water with Capt. Isaiah! Highly recommend Captain Catch’em Charters!

    We had a great time with Captain Mike. He was very patient with the kids and answered all their questions, He was very attentive helping with baiting hooks and helping take fish off the hook as well. He even cleaned out catch when we got back. We would love to go back out with Captain Mike.

    Trip: Fort Myers/Sanibel Inshore 21’boat

  • ★★★★★
    My family enjoyed Jesse but did have a couple comments. It seemed he was not as forthcoming to assist but helped if asked. The other comment was about the smoking. Our family is very sensitive about cigarette smoke due to my bout with pancreatic cancer for which the leading cause is cigarette smoking, even though I have never smoked in my life. They didn’t expect him to stop to fill up on their fishing time. I would say his communication was above expectations. Thank you.

    Trip: Fort Myers Beach Local Captain.

  • ★★★★★
    I recently went on an iguana hunt with Captain Logan and his incredible dog, Kona, and it was hands down the best iguana hunting experience I’ve ever had. Captain Logan was extremely professional, knowledgeable, and entertaining throughout the entire trip. Kona was not only impressive to watch but added a unique and enjoyable element to the hunt. Together, they make an outstanding team. The equipment provided was top-notch. The air guns were incredibly accurate, which made the hunt both successful and enjoyable. It’s clear that Captain Logan takes pride in maintaining high-quality gear and creating a first-class experience for his clients. I’ve been on several iguana hunts over the years, and this one was by far the best. From start to finish, everything was organized, professional, and fun. If you’re considering an iguana hunt in South Florida, I highly recommend booking a trip with Captain Logan and Kona. You won’t be disappointed!
