We had a fantastic time with Captain Dave! We caught lots of different kinds of fish and were even able to eat some of our catch for lunch. Highly recommend!

Dave had a very nice boat and we had a great morning fishing, we moved several times and kept on it until it absolutely downpoured!! And some how made it back to the boat access!

We had a great day- Captain Dave was very knowledgeable and bent over backwards to make our first experience fishing in this area fun and informative. We highly recommend Captain Dave & Island Time Charters!! ~Brian & Jill Gregson

Capt Dave is a very personable individual. Communicates easily and follows up. My wife and I had a great time. Would definitely recommend him is you are looking for a nice day on the water fishing.
Thanks for the review i hope to have you out again
Captain Dave was great with my teenage boys and we really enjoyed our time out on the water. The crew worked hard to make sure we were on fish as often as possible. We will be booking again!

Island Time Adventures is Veteran run and owned. I've always been an avid fisherman. I have been fishing the Ft Myers area since childhood. Full time here for the last 15 years and have enjoyed the challenge of inshore fishing using lite tackle. There is nothing like the excitement of someone catching their first quality saltwater fish with that screaming drag. Having 4 children and 6 grandkids, I have lots of experience in fishing with beginners and expert anglers alike. Visualize fishing with your grandpa.
