About Your Trip

Join Captain Justin for a fishing adventure you won’t soon forget! Capt. Justin has been guiding trips on his local waters here in Fort Meyers for over over 14 years and knows how to get you on top of the fish you’re after.

You’ll be casting off of a 25’ Seahawk, powered by a speedy 300 HP Mercury engine. She’s equipped with top-of-the-line electronics, a live well, two powerpoles, and a wireless trolling motor for when you need to slow things down and get stealthy! She can accommodate up to 6 anglers and children are always welcome aboard.

The Fort Meyers/10k Islands area is one of the best-known fishing destinations in Southwest Florida, owing to its plentiful year-round fishery. Depending on what you’re aiming for, you’ll go after anything from Redfish, Snook, and Trout, to Tarpon and Snapper.

Capt. Justin will supply everything you need for a productive day of fishing, including rods, reels, and tackle. He’ll also provide bottled water, though you’re free to bring any other snacks and refreshments you’d like to enjoy. At the end of the day, he’ll clean and bag your catch for easy transport home.

Have the true Florida inshore experience with a seasoned local guide aboard with Captain Justin!

Overall, I would rate the trip a 3/4 star. It was an interesting experience! It was a pretty expensive experience for the kids to not catch any fish, but that's part of fishing. However, despite no fish, Justin was great. He was knowledgeable, patient, and moved to several different locations to try to make it happen for them.

Hey, this is Trey with Captain Experiences. While we always aim for action-packed trips, fishing can sometimes be unpredictable for a lot of reasons.

We take all feedback seriously and are always looking for ways to improve. Glad we could connect behind the scenes. I...

Capt Justin did an excellent job. Hands down best fishing guide i have ever hired. Prior to the trip he asked me what our target species would be and then he put me and my son on some big fish as promised.

What stood out the most is Capt Justin took the time to coach my son into how to fight and land the monster snook he hooked up .Also he cared about the Fish taking precaution to make sure they were released properly .

That to me is what makes a great Fishing guide stand out. Its about sharing knowledge, teaching the next generation and showing the proper Respect for our Good Lords Creation.

Good job!
