Explore the waters of Fort Myers and have a great fishing experience with Thrill Of It All. Together with Captain Scott Williams, you’ll embark on the nearby inshore and nearshore waters and flats and have fun chasing several different species. Apart from the challenging and tasty fish, the beautiful natural surroundings will also make you wish to come back. Come aboard and enjoy a day fishing with Thrill Of It All.
Your trip will start on a 23’ Hanson bay boat. It can comfortably sit up to 5 anglers and is powered by a 175 HP Suzuki engine that can reach a maximum cruising speed of 40 knots. It uses modern GPS and fishfinder technology to make your trip safe and to locate the fish as quickly as possible. It’s also got a wireless trolling motor used for a more tactful approach to the fish, a livewell to provide live bait, and it features an ice-box so you can store your fish and drinks.
You’ll be able to chase Jack Crevalle, Shark, Tarpon, Snook, Spotted Seatrout, and Redfish. The captain specializes in spinning on both light and heavy tackle, so this is the way you’ll be attracting your prey. You get to keep all the fish you catch.
Captain Scott provides you with all the fishing licenses, tackle, live bait, lures, snacks, water, beverages, and will even clean and fillet your catch. There’s nothing you should bring on your trip but you’re free to bring any other food or drinks if you wish to.
Thrill Of It All invites you for an exciting trip around Fort Myers. Come and have lots of fun on the water and get back home with a respectable catch.

Half Day Trip – Inshore (AM)
My wife and I live in NW Cape and fish inshore often—though our “catches” are usually a puny trout here, a catfish there, maybe a puffer fish or a small shark. We decided it was time to up our game, so we booked a trip with Capt. Scott—and he delivered. He showed up right on time, stocked with plenty of live bait, and had us on fish almost immediately. By the end of the trip, we’d hit our daily limit on snapper, landed two beautiful trout, a Spanish mackerel, a few small Gag Grouper that we released, and more. My wife even caught her first snook (had to release it, but it was a thrill). Capt. Scott didn’t just put us on fish—he taught us the right techniques, the best bait for the season, and shared a ton of local knowledge. Fresh snapper for dinner last night was incredible, and we’re already grilling some for lunch today. If you want a great time on the water, catch fish, and actually learn how to fish these inshore waters, call Capt. Scott. You won’t regret it.

3/4 Day Trip – Inshore (AM)
Captain Scott was great, he was not only knowledgeable about the area, but very easy to talk to. He showed great patience working with my kids, and more importantly took the time to teach them new fishing skills. It was a fun day out on the water where we all learned some new things, and most importantly caught lunch. I would recommend him to all levels of skill, and with or without kids. Next time we are in town I will definitely be looking to got out on the water with Scott again.

We had a great time with Captain Scott. This is the second trip we’ve done with him. He is an excellent guide, very knowledgeable, and patient with our 4 year old son. We caught a lot of fish and had a great time! Thanks!

The bite was slow due to the tide, but Captain Scott kept us entertained. We went home with memories made and fish for dinner.
