About Your Trip

On this trip with Captain Janot, you'll be using air rifles to targe a variety of exotic and invasive species from the deck of his 18’ Excel F4 mud boat. That includes Iguanas, Egyptian Geese, and other Florida invasives. This kind of hunt is great for beginners and great for the environment; iguanas and Egyptian Geese are invasive here in Florida, and the ecosystem will thank you for bagging a few! Both species make for great table fare as well!

On this trip, you'll be exploring the inland canal system on board Captain Janot's boat. You'll be keeping your eyes peeled to spot iguanas, then dispatching them with high powered pre charged pneumatic air rifles in .25-.30 calibers! Book a trip now and experience this unique type of Florida hunting!

Captain Experiences - I discussed my trip (with Captain Janot) with Jake from Captain Experiences on Sunday 07/28/24.
My Egyptian Goose and Iguana hunt with Captain Janot:
Pros: Janot was a nice, pleasant guy with a clean boat, who gave me good safety instructions and had plenty of cold beverages. He made some adjustments to accommodate my health and age impairments. Janot got me on a good Egyptian Goose that I shot for a mounter in the first 30 minutes of the hunt.
Cons: Janot hunted me for only 3.25 hours instead of the contracted 4 hours. Janot took me to his "honey hole" and we found darn few iguanas; Janot even openly admitted that the City had very recently been in the "honey hole" to take out the iguanas. Instead of 1) taking me to another hunting area with a substantial number of shootable iguanas or 2) letting me know ahead of time that the City had all but wiped out the iguana crop so I could try to book another hunt with some other outfitter or 3) hooking me up with another outfitter, Janot chose to take me to an area he knew was nearly devoid of iguanas. And Yes, there was a few, but nearly all of the iguanas that we saw were less than 1.5 pounds. Prior to the hunt, Janot told me that I should be able to harvest 15-20 and maybe as many as 30 iguanas depending on how long it would take us to get me a goose. In 2.75 hours, he managed to get me 6 iguanas - a good 5 pounder, a tailless 4 pounder, two 1.25 pounders and two .75 pounders. We may have seen about 200 total iguanas of which about 28-30 were shootable. Of those 28-30 shootable iguanas, we harvested only 6, wounded about 14-15 that got away, and missed about 8-10. Janot did not have a retrieving dog which would have really helped with those wounded iguanas that made it into the water or that crawled away into an area where shooting wasn't possible but retrieval was possible.

All in all, based solely on my hunt with Janot, I give Janot as a man a thumbs up. I give Janot as a boat captain a thumbs up. I give Janot as an outfitter a thumbs down. And I give the hunt two thumbs down.

I would never ever book another hunt with Janot unless he paid my way back and forth to the hunt site from Montana and gave me a free hunt. This was an expensive hunt that was almost completely a bust !!! Janot could have and should have done much better!
