Fishing has been good before it gets to hot once the afternoon hits the fish have been a little slower so if a trip is to be booked I'd definitely recommend a morning or night trip

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.

    Trip: Iguana Hunt With Iguana DOG!!!

    We had an amazing fishing experience with Captain Paul. We caught fish, and he taught us several fishing techniques. We even saw manatees and a stingray! We had a wonderful time. He also shared a lot of interesting information about the area. He’s super friendly, and we highly recommend him. At the end of our trip, he cleaned and filleted our catch, and we’re looking forward to enjoying it for dinner tonight!

    Amazing trip with Captain Bobby. He took us to 4 or 5 different spots, and plenty of fish at each spot. My grandson’s (7 and 10 years old) were fishing for the first time, and Captain Bobby was very patient and helpful with them. The trip exceeded our expectations!
