The fishing has been phenomenal lately, getting into our spring trends with higher tides and strong bite inshore. Snook, redfish, trout and tarpon have been the big targets along with Spanish Mackerel, Jack Crevalle, mangrove snapper and others. White bait is prevalent throughout the sound and that's what these predatory fish love to eat. Plenty of fun fights everyday fishing bar lines, grass flats and mangrove islands.

Snook bit has been on 🔥 and we are starting to get some good 30+ inch reds up in the trees. Shark bite staying consistent and if you want to fill the cooler with meat the mackerel and trout are plentiful.

The fishing has been great the best few weeks with the warming water. Pilchards and thread fans are the Bait of choice.

    Had a great trip with Jeff and would absolutely recommend him!

    Trip: Pine Island Inshore/Nearshore Trip

  • ★★★★★
    My opinion: Capt. Chris was the best, and that's coming from a former 100-ton Coast Guard-certified captain who ran fishing charters in the northeast for years. His boat was clean and well-provisioned, he came prepared, listened to what we wanted to do and delivered on every one of our requests. Along the way he provided great conversation, insights and local color and left us with an unforgettable day. Should we go back to the Cayo Costa/Sanibel/Pine Island area, we 100 percent will hire Chris to take us out again.

    This was a very fun experience for our family! Brandon was a great captain and very friendly. We have very little experience with fishing and Brandon made it easy for us and even cleaned our fish!

    Thanks Captain Frankie for the great time we had fishing with you. You put us on many fish, we did catch a few which were great. Can’t wait to do it again I don’t have pictures but what we did land was a lot of fun. Thanks for the great time.

    Trip: Inshore Fishing Sanibel PineIsland

  • ★★★★★
    A GREAT day fishing with Captain Al! Ended up booking for the COLDEST day possible in January but Cap’n Al found protected spots with great returns. We all three caught a bunch of Reds, snook, snapper and sheepshead. Cap’n Al is super experienced and a great navigator..which is ideal when out in any waters. He is also calm, funny and patient, with a kind manner. Had great equipment and plenty of bait for us to lose while trying to entice the fish! The boat is terrific, clean and very well kept, a comfortable and safe platform to fish from, and took the chop very well. He also kindly filleted our keepers to ensure we had a perfect dinner when we got home! An excellent fishing adventure and we will certainly be going out with him again. Thanks Cap’n Al, for a wonderful day!
