What types of redfish fishing charters are common in Fort Myers?

Deep Sea fishing is the most popular type of fishing for redfish in Fort Myers as well as inshore fishing, flats fishing, and nearshore fishing.

The most common fishing techniques in Fort Myers are light tackle fishing, live bait fishing, and bottom fishing but artificial lure fishing and heavy tackle fishing are popular as well.

How much do Fort Myers redfish fishing charters cost?

Prices for redfish in Fort Myers can range anywhere from about $550 to $1,600, but the average price for a half day trip for redfish in Fort Myers is $734. The average price for a full day trip for redfish in Fort Myers is $1,141.

Is booking a fishing guide worth the money?

Hiring a guide provides a number of benefits and many choose to book a fishing guide for a combination of experience, local knowledge, convenience, and cost-effectiveness.

Working with experienced fishing guides who know the best local spots and techniques can dramatically increase your odds of a great day. Having someone who is on the water every day and knows the area like the back of their hand is going to give you the best chances of success.

Booking a guide is also more cost effective, especially if you only get out a handful of times per year. When you consider all of the costs you would incur on your own such as the price of a boat, maintenance, insurance, gas, high-quality gear and tackle, repairs, and more, you’ll find that DIY is sometimes not worth the expense.

Even if you’ve got a great setup already in your home waters, booking a guide also provides a great opportunity to experience new techniques, new locations, or even a chance at a new target species to knock off the bucket list.

What month is best for redfish fishing in Fort Myers?

The most popular season for redfish fishing in Fort Myers is spring, and most anglers book their trips 22 days in advance.

Do I need a Fort Myers fishing license for redfish and what are the bag limits for redfish in Fort Myers?

  • ★★★★★
    An awesome day on the water!! Travis is an excellent captain and knows the area and water well. We went to several key spots that he had marked and it was obvious he knew where the fish were. The fish weren’t as active that day, however, Travis knew where to go to make sure we still got on fish to make it a memorable day. Thanks again Travis!! Highly recommend!

    Wonderful day on the water! Jesse took our family of 6 out for a full day. We did a little bit of everything, inshore & off shore fishing, dolphin watching, even a great lunch recommendation stop. Now back to our VRBO to cook some of the days catch! Jesse gets our 10/10 rating, we had a GREAT day!

    Dalton did a great job and highly recommend anyone looking at fishing. He’s super knowledgeable, puts bait on, takes fish off, will cast for if needed, filet your fish up, etc. Very personable and easy to talk to and hang out with. He got us on a ton of fish and took extra time with our 13 year old.

    We had a half day charter where we split it up between offshore and onshore for redfish and Travis did not disappoint! We caught a decent number of snapper and a few other things out offshore but then ensure we caught some redfish for the first time! Some keepers some not, but it was definitely a great experience overall! We will definitely be calling Travis again! Would love to even try some tarpon one day! Thank you for a great day!

    Excellent day on the water! Travis was an awesome guide! He took great care of us and we had a fabulous time. Mangrove, lane snappers, sheep heads, groupers and grunts were among the catch today!

    Awesome Captain. Great boat and equipment. Got us on fish quickly and we caught fish the whole trip! He has a great attitude and is very personable. He tries to cater your trip to your level of fishing experience and what species you are targeting to get the best results for you. Highly recommend booking a charter with him! We will book another charter with him if we are in the area again.

    Captain was very nice, he rigged all of the poles and took us to lots of different locations trying to find fish. Used all kinds of bait, gave us pointers, but because of a tropical storm the week before the fish just were not biting.

    Great trip with Kyle, he was very accommodating to our variety of fishing experiences!! Some caught on the first cast!! Fun times had by all!

    Trip: Inshore swfl

  • ★★★★★
    We had a great time. Very knowledgeable and capable guide. Fishing can be tough and there was a lot of pressure from other people. We moved several times to stay on the fish and Capt. Bobby seemed to alway know exactly where to find them. We caught a lot including snook, trout, and redfish. Highly recommend, kid friendly, quality boat and equipment.

    My wife and I had a great day on the water with James. He was personable and informative (marine science degree I believe).He obviously knows his way around the Ft Myers waters. Put us on snook, redfish, trout, and even some grouper and mackerel. He even got my wife to fish and we got to watch her fight a big red. Love his preference to catch and release.Highly recommend. Tons of fun. Thanks James

    Trip: Fort Myers / Sanibel Inshore Action

  • ★★★★★
    Capt. James’ excellent customer care and service was only exceeded by his fishing and boating knowledge. We felt safe and well cared for on a two day trip where both days exceeded our expectations! We experienced great numbers of fish caught, which was exactly what we asked him to provide us! Kudos to a genuinely nice young man who damn sure knows how to help you catch fish and have fun! Good boat and equipment as well. 5 stars easy!

    Trip: Fort Myers/Sanibel Fishing Trip

  • ★★★★★
    We had an outstanding fishing trip with Captain Jack, and caught our target species at the first location of the day. In my experience this is rare. The snook were big, hungry, and plentiful. My son and his friend were astounded by the 30 inch snook's ability to fight. We had a great time, and I highly recommend Jack.
