SEASON IS HERE AND SO ARE THE FISH! Don’t wait, Book Now as the calendar is filling up fast!

There is no better time to go on an inshore fishing trip with Waterboy Charters in the Everglades National Park/Ten Thousand Islands. Capt. Bobby has been fishing his whole life, was born and raised in the Everglades, and knows where to take you to get the most out of your trip.

You’ll spend the day on a 22’ Pathfinder. This beautiful boat can fit you and 3 fishing friends. This vessel also has a brand new 200 SHO Yamaha V-Max engine. Pair this with the full navigational equipment, including a fishfinder, and you’ll be on top of the fish before you know it. The wireless trolling motor on board will also give you that extra edge in chasing down your prey.

Species you’ll be targeting include Tarpon, Snook, Redfish and Spotted Seatrout. Tarpon is a great species for testing your fishing skills – the Silver King puts up a fight once hooked, and in over 60% of cases will break free. Reel this in to get complete bragging rights!

You'll be using a variety of fishing techniques, from trolling to jigging and popping. Whatever your skill level, there is a fish out there with your name on it. Kids are more than welcome on board and life vests are provided. For their comfort, the captain recommends bringing your own though.

Included in the price are top-quality Penn rods and reels, and all bait and tackle. Live bait is usually caught before the trip, but if you’d like to take part in it, let the captain know before the trip. After your trip, the captain will fillet whatever catch you decide to keep. Capt. Bobby will also let you know the best restaurants to take your catch to be cooked.

You are welcome to bring food and drink along, which can go in the captain’s cooler on board.

Book now and start making some amazing memories with Waterboy Charters – you’re sure to come back time and time again.

Captain Bobby is the ultimate professional. The weather was freezing that day but he worked with us on the time and we fished a ton of different spots and caught enough keepers to make a delicious dinner. 10/10 would recommend. Can’t wait to book next years trip.

We had a great time with Captain Bobby. I had really never caught fish before today. I had keepers! We had a wonderful lunch afterwards at a local restaurant. Thanks Captain Bobby for your tips and suggestions. You keep us moving and motivated to get the best out of our day. We highly recommend Waterboy charters !

Went out with Captain Bobby and my son for a morning of fishing in 10,000 islands. We caught our limit of sea trout, he cleaned the fish beautifully and he told me how to cook them and he was on the money with that as well. Along the way he was kind and encouraging to my son and easy to get along with. Next time I go out fishing I’ll make a point of contacting Captain Bobby first.
