Fish the Everglades National Park, otherwise known as the 10,000 Islands, with Captain Brock Wagner. With 23 years of experience on these waters, he has a detailed understanding of the best local places to fish. Join him to experience one of the most amazing fisheries the USA has to offer and enjoy some world-class fishing, targeting prized species on the pristine waters of the Everglades.

The captain's boat of choice is a 22' Pathfinder bay boat, restored as recently as 2018. It's powered by a 175 HP Suzuki engine and features Ray Marine GPS, fish finder, and a T-Top for protection from the Florida sun. There is plenty of storage room on board and enough space for 3 guests to fish comfortably at the same time.

Captain Brock will provide you with everything you need to fish. You'll be equipped with top-notch Tsunami gear, your fishing license for the day is covered by the charter, and any bait you need will be either caught or bought by the captain depending on the season you're fishing in.

Another thing that's season-dependent is which species you'll be able to target, catch, keep, and release. If you have a particular target in mind for your trip and would like to know what the best time window to target it is you should consult with the captain before booking your trip.

Parking at meetup location costs $10 per car and it's located near various stores and breakfast places. Things you should remember to pack for your trip are food, drinks, sunglasses, and sunscreen.

Now the last remaining thing is to check the captain's calendar, find a date that works for you both and start planning your Everglades fishing adventure!

    Learned a lot

    5 Hour Trip on April 16, 2026 • 2 adults

    Catching fish was a bonus for this trip. I wanted to how to fish the captain's area, and he gave us lots info what to look for when in that part of Florida. The actual fishing was slow because of some very clear water. The radio chatter let us know that the four Sea Trout we caught was better than most of the other boats. We are planning on hiring him again this summer when our brother in law down.

    Full day offshore and inshore Capt Brock

    Full Day Trip on February 19, 2022 • 3 adults • 1 child

    Caught many slab Sheepshead and Pompano offshore then moved inshore to tighten up on some hefty Reds and Snapper! My 12 year old daughter caught the best Red to end the day. Captain Brock and his boat were excellent! We’ll do it again!

    Full day trip with Capt Brock

    Full Day Trip on March 16, 2021 • 4 adults

    Captain Brock was very personable and knowledgeable. When we weren't on the fish he continually looked for them. No down time. Captain Brock's boat was the perfect size for four of us to fish from. The T-Top added much needed shade. We all had a great time.
