Spend a day with Naples Everglades Fishing Charters and enjoy the bountiful waters of the Everglades, Ten Thousand Islands and offshore. This is a perfect way to spend some time outdoors in the company of your loved ones and catch some tasty fish on the way. Both beginners and experienced anglers are welcome to join, so don't worry if you don't have any fish trophies on your resume - you're about to get some!

Fish aboard a 25' Parker center console that accommodates up to 6 guests. She's powered by a 250 HP Yamaha engine that can reach the speed of 35 knots, so you'll be on your fishing spot in no time. The boat features a live bait tank, and a cooler for your catch. On some trips, you can be accompanied by the first mate, so you'll have extra help with your equipment.

Every type of fishing ground is our playground. You can visit flats, backcountry, reefs, wrecks, and nearshore spots. This results in a very long list of possible catches, so we'll mention just a few, such as Black Drum, Red Snapper, Blacktip Shark, Flounder, Trout, Black Grouper, and more.

We cover your fishing license and full equipment, including rods, reels, lures, and live bait. After the trip, the captain will also clean the catch for you, so you'll leave the dock with the freshest fish fillets.

Just pack some drinks, snacks, and don't forget your sun protection. Naples Everglades Fishing Charters is waiting for you!

10,000 Island Fishing with Captain Jimmy
2.5 Hr Ten Thousand Islands 9am on April 10, 20264 adults1 child

Had an awesome time out on the water with Captain Jimmy. From start to finish, everything was smooth and well-run. We ended up catching several sharks and catfish, which made for a seriously exciting trip—but the highlight was seeing a manta ray jump completely out of the water right in front of us. Unreal experience. Best part though—my six-year-old caught a fish on the very first cast and ended up catching more than anyone else on the boat. That alone made the trip unforgettable. Captain Jimmy knows his stuff, keeps things fun, and makes sure everyone is having a good time. Whether you’re experienced or just going out for fun, I’d definitely recommend booking a trip with him.

2.5 Hr Ten Thousand Islands 9am on May 9, 20262 adults

Had a great time with Captain Jimmie! He was patient and had great advice and tricks. we caught tons of catfish and snappers! He and his wife also were super knowledgeable about the area and the wildlife and it was super interesting to learn about considering we are from landlocked Missouri! Me and my mom definitely want to come back and bring my dad one day! :)

A must have experience while in Marco Island
2.5 Hr Ten Thousand Islands 9am on April 27, 20262 adults

Captain Jimmy was extremely knowledgeable and a fun guide! We caught a bunch of fish and had dolphins leaping in our wake through the canal. At Jimmy’s suggestion we prepared fish tacos from our catch for supper and they were a huge hit with our whole family. We’ll definitely book an excursion with Jimmy next time we’re back in the area!

Great day on the water!
5 Hour Offshore 9am on June 27, 20264 adults

We had a great day fishing. w started out catching mostly jack and catfish but then we caught a Goliath grouper and some snapper. Saw dolphins and sea turtles as well as a very big shark. We think it was a black tip. Overall it was a very fun trip.
