Discover the thrill of inshore fishing in beautiful Fort Myers with Captain Dalton! Known for its vibrant coastal waters and abundant fish species, Fort Myers is a paradise for anglers—and with Captain Dalton leading the way, you’re in for a fun-filled, stress-free day on the water.

Your adventure will take you to some of the region’s most productive fishing spots, including San Carlos Bay, Tarpon Bay, Pine Island Sound, and Estero Bay. These pristine waters are home to some of Florida’s most iconic fish species. Whether you’re chasing the acrobatic leaps of Tarpon, targeting the hard-fighting Snook and Redfish, or going after Grouper, Sheepshead, or Ladyfish, Captain Dalton will put you on the bite and guide you every step of the way.

Captain Dalton makes your experience as easy and enjoyable as possible by taking care of all the essentials. Fishing licenses, live bait, rods, reels, and tackle are all included, so you won’t need to worry about bringing gear. Drinks are provided to keep you refreshed throughout the day, and when you’re done, Captain Dalton will even clean and fillet your catch for free! All you need to bring is your favorite food, sunscreen, and weather-appropriate clothing—then get ready to reel in the fun.

You’ll fish aboard a comfortable and family-friendly boat, equipped with an ice box to keep your catch fresh and drinks cold. This trip is perfect for anglers of all experience levels, from first-timers to seasoned pros, and is also child-friendly, making it a great outing for families.

Each trip's price is determined by the guide and reflects all associated costs. A significant factor in pricing is often the type of boat and the corresponding fuel expenses.
