We offer expert guided light tackle nearshore and backwater fishing trips just south of Naples and Marco Island, FL in the Everglades National Park. Our captains are happy to accommodate anyone from men, women, or children....... experienced or not.

There is no holding back a big grin from the moment we plane off and immediately traverse through a veritable maze of red, black, and white mangroves. This is the Everglades National Park. You are on a real adventure to a very special place that few will ever see or know.

Departing from Chokoloskee Island and Everglades City (just south of Naples and Marco Island) we can cover many miles of the most remote back country water in the world. See alligators, porpoise, manatees, eagles, osprey and a variety of other wildlife on the way to catch Snook, Tarpon, Trout, Redfish, Grouper, Tripletail, Cobia, Snapper, Pompano, Mackerel, and more.

If you are looking for a fun, easy going, and enjoyable day fishing and exploring in the Everglades National Park, look no further. We cater to men, women, & children of all ages, experienced or not, and those with special needs.

2011 Rates

We have boats that fish 2, 3, and 4 passengers. It is a lot of fun booking multiple boats for your larger group.
We can fish together in the same areas and meet up for your picnic lunch.

Tips: I hate to talk about this but most everyone asks. Tipping your captain for good service is customary in the charter business, and is most certainly appreciated. Typically it's about the same as gratuity for good service in a restaurant.

It is most comfortable fishing 2 anglers, however a 3rd angler can come along
for no additional cost to you if you wish to give up a little casting space.

How to Reserve Your Trip:

Don't wait till the last minute - Be sure to book as far as possible in advance to reserve the dates you would like to fish. It is not uncommon for me to have bookings several weeks or months ahead. If your schedule allows, I like to look at the tide charts, moon phase, weather patterns, and several other factors to give you the best scenario to fulfill your dream. You can use the contact form right here on the web site to reach me.
