About Your Trip

With over 20 years of experience fishing the backcountry and nearshore waters of Southwest Florida, Captain John knows exactly where to go to put you on the fish. From the legendary 10,000 Islands to the world-renowned waters of Boca Grande, he’ll take you on an adventure tailored to your style—whether you’re looking for non-stop rod-bending action or a
laid-back day exploring the scenic coastline.
On your half or full-day trip, you’ll have the chance to reel in some of the most sought-after species in these waters, including Tarpon, Snook, Redfish, Sea Trout, Tripletail, and Cobia. Whether you’re casting lines in the mangrove-lined backcountry, sight-fishing the flats, or hitting nearshore reefs, Captain John will have you fishing like a pro in no time. If you’re up for a truly unique experience, ask about his nighttime trips, where you can chase after monster Snook and Tarpon under the glow of the dock lights!
For those looking to mix things up, Captain John also offers fully customizable trips—combine fishing with a stop at a water-access-only restaurant, add in a family-friendly shelling excursion, or just kick back and enjoy the ride. However you want to spend your day, he’ll make sure it’s a trip to remember.
