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

    Good time, perfect day. Capt Dalton moved around until we found fish. Highly recommended

    Trip: Fishing Thrills In Fort Myers

  • ★★★★★
    We had an absolutely incredible day with Captain Roland! From the moment we got on the boat, he was attentive, personable, and made us feel completely comfortable. He was especially wonderful with our 9-year-old son—taking the time to teach him, encourage him, and make sure he was having the best time. We caught more fish than we ever expected, and the entire experience was relaxed, fun, and memorable. There truly isn’t enough good we can say about this trip. We’re already looking forward to booking again with Captain Roland!

    Trip: Inshore Fishing Charter Cape Coral

  • ★★★★★
    Very enjoyable charter with over 20 hookups in 4 hours. We requested targeting snook, redfish and any other "filet and release" species. Snook and redfish were abundant although many were short they were a great fight. Highly recommend Captain Andy.

    Captain Sean was responsive and flexible and took us on a great afternoon near shore fishing expedition! He knew lots of great spots to search for fish and he tried hard to make sure we all caught something. His new boat is capable and comfortable. We saw lots of wildlife and had a great day.
