Operating out of the premium fishing destination of Naples, Florida, Smokin’ Hooks takes you on angling adventures to the area’s bountiful nearshore and offshore waters. Join Captain Brian Smith and his team of professional captains to experience the beauty of fishing in a gorgeous surrounding with lots of opportunities for landing a great catch. People of all fishing experience levels are welcome aboard, from the most seasoned angler to the first timer or a family group. Smokin’ Hooks operates two Parker vessels so please message for availability on how to book both boats for groups with 7-12 passengers.

You’ll fish aboard a 25’ Parker walkaround well suited to offshore and nearshore journeys. Its spacious deck allows for up to 6 guests to come aboard. The boat runs on a 300 HP Yamaha four stroke engine that will ensure you reach the fishing spots in no time. The boat is well-protected from the weather and uses all the modern electronics to put you on the fish. It also features a portable toilet and a livewell. On some trips, you’ll even have the services of a first mate.

On your trip, you can target pretty much any fish that dwells within 9 miles off the SW Floridian coast. Whether you want to reel in delicious Cobia or Tripletail, battle sharks, Tarpon, and Snapper, Captain Brian, Captain William, Captain Tyler, and First Mate Andrew have all that it takes for a successful and thrilling adventure on the sea. You’ll be light tackle bottom fishing and you can keep the fish you catch. Kids are always welcome to come aboard.

Your trip includes custom rods and reels, bait, as well as fishing licenses for all the guests. Smokin’ Hooks also provides ice and bottled water but you’re free to bring any food and drinks you want. At the end of the trip, the captain will fillet, bag, and ice your catch for you. There’s a nearby restaurant that will cook your catch as well!

Spend a day fishing with Smokin’ Hooks and create wonderful memories on the water!
