Wiggins Bay Charters
Wiggins Bay Charters
Come spend a day fishing like the locals do! Captain Marc Kroseberg Fishes inshore and nearshore waters in Southwest Florida along pristine mangrove lines, clean beaches, and nearshore reefs/wrecks. Charters start in Naples out of Wiggins Pass!
Your vessel for the day is a 2023 Pathfinder 25’, powered by a 300HP Yamaha engine. Enjoy a comfortable ride with the latest electronics and equipment, including a tower, fish finder, side-scan sonar, twin power poles, and stealthy trolling motor. This is the ideal ride for up to 4 anglers!
We’ll target inshore species such as Snook, Redfish (Capt. Marc’s favorite), Sea Trout, Tarpon, Sheepshead, Snapper, and more! Further offshore we’ll target Permit, Cobia, Big Snook, Goliath Grouper, Sharks, and more! All experience levels are welcome and all gear and fishing licenses are provided, and you can bring your own fishing gear if you’d like! Capt. Marc will bait your hooks and help you with casting and taking fish off the line as well.
There’s a cooler full of ice, stocked with bottled water and sodas. If there are any special refreshments you’d like to bring, feel free to do so!
You never know what you’ll see out on the water, and every day is different! Come enjoy the local wildlife and atmosphere, and have an awesome day out on the water with a captain that’s truly passionate about the area and its fishery.
Attention: Even if Snook and Redfish are in season, they are catch and release only on this charter.

Captain Marc was an awesome guy, he took my family out for my 40th birthday. We caught snapper, tarpon and snook. My wife is not big into fishing and was a bit nervous but she had a great time, he took the time to stop the boat and show her manatees and dolphins which was the highlight of her trip. Thanks again if I ever visit Florida again I will definitely book with him again.

Great day catching some fish with my oldest daughter!
I had my daughter fly in to visit for a few days and she expressed an interest in fishing. Captain Marc couldn’t have been better! His boat was fabulous and he knew exactly where to go for us to catch a number of different types of fish including Jack, Snook, and Trout. Most importantly, my daughter had a great time. Looking forward to my next excursion with Captain Marc!

Perfect day on Wiggins Bay
Met Captain Marc in the morning for a great day of fishing. The boat was fantastic. Captain Marc was friendly, and knowledgeable. Helpful and patient with casting in tight areas. Kept our 2 high schoolers entertained with conversation and fish all morning. Fish were plenty and an amazing variety. Released most of the catch, but kept enough for a family dinner, expertly fileted. Super flat water in the protection of the mangrove channels. If back in the area, we'll look him up again.

Great Experience
Captain Marc is a professional, knowledgeable and friendly boat charter operator. You can tell he loves what he does and cares deeply about the customer experience. Regardless if you have a ton of experience or if you’ve never seen a fishing rod, Captain Marc will take care of you. He’s great both with kids and adults and will help you out every step of the way. If we are in the area again, we’ll definitely be a repeat customer. Would highly recommend using Wiggins Bay Charters.

Perfect trip. Highly recommend Marc!
We had an incredible fishing experience with Marc! The booking process was easy. Marc was an excellent communicator, kind, patient, and tentative throughout. His boat was spacious and comfortable for our group of four. We caught several types of fish and had plenty to keep for a fresh lunch afterward. The highlight was landing a Goliath Grouper! I highly recommend Marc’s four-hour charter to anyone looking for a memorable day on the water.
