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.

Had a great experience, captain put us on the fish and had non stop action. Everything you hope a fishing charter delivers on. Thank for an amazing fishing experience!

Mike was an excellent guide. Hardworking, patient, and has the know-how to put you on the fish. We had loads of premium bait and he knew exactly where the bait and fish would be. Great experience!!!

My wife and I had an offshore trip planned but due to weather it got canceled. We adjusted and captain yani set us up with captain Kyle boner. We caught Snook, jack crevalle,catfish, mangrove snapper, needle fish, speckled trout, gator trout, Angie caught a shark and we both caught seagulls... we enjoyed a show from a dolphin who was waiting for us to release short Snook. Good fishing. Kyle told us about the temp. And they fried the fish he cleaned for us and it was delicious. Great communication between all. Highly recommend yani and Kyle.

Alex was a great guide, knowledgeable, patience, we found the tarpon and snook but we just couldn't get them to bite. Some days you're the hammer some days you're the nail. Definitely be back again.

We had 4 of us and two kids one was 5 Scott was so patient with the kids and very interactive with everyone explaining each fish we caught- we caught 10 different species of fish that we boated but also had a shark and tarpon on. I would definitely recommend Scott to anyone who is looking for a great fishing captain.

★★★★★
Capt. Jacob put us on tarpon early and often. One hook-up and quickly gone after one nice leap from the water. We had our chances early with plenty of fish around. Jacob kept up the hunt and our lack of fly casting wasn't a problem for the Captain. After we got more comfortable, we were able to land this nice tarpon on a fly. Something I have dreamed about for a while. Thank you Captain Experiences.
