Top Notch Trip for Snook
2 Hour Trip (AM) on July 30, 2025 • 1 adult • 2 children
We had an incredible experience with Artistic Angler Charters! From start to finish, the trip was everything we hoped for and more. We learned how to troll for ladyfish & hooked a few big snook, which was definitely a highlight for the kids, but what made the day stand out for me was the captain’s patience and kindness with my son (9) & nephew (11) . They talked her ear off the entire trip, and she didn’t miss a beat—answering all their questions and teaching us so much about the waters around Naples and the local wildlife. We had adventure, excitement & fish on until the literal last second of the trip, landing a huge snook at the boat ramp with our leftover ladyfish.
The boat was clean and comfortable, and the captain’s knowledge and enthusiasm made the whole experience top-notch. Highly recommend Capt. Christina - we’ll definitely be back since my son and nephew said they don’t want to fish with anyone else now, lol.

Hook, line ,and Black Drum!
3 Hour Trip on November 27, 2025 • 1 adult • 1 child
Captain Christina was amazing! My daughter and I had never been fishing in Florida before and we had so much fun! Captain Christina was able to find the fish and keep my 10 year old entertained for 3 hours. She was patient, knowledgable, and super fun to talk to. Big fish energy that we loved! I would recommend Artistic Angler Charters to everyone who wants to fish! We will definitely be back for more fun!!!

Wonderful Trip with the Girls!
3 Hour Trip on July 1, 2025 • 1 adult • 1 child
My wife and 9 year old daughter booked Christina for a short morning fishing trip and had a wonderful time. Christina was great with the boat, equipment, putting us on fish and always made sure our hooks were full. We had such a great time today fishing and spending time together. My daughter caught her biggest fish ever with a 30” snook. The added bonus was seeing dolphins, manatees, a sea turtle, stingray, shark, and many species of fish. Overall we were very happy we booked with Christina and hope to book again next year.

August fishing trip
2 Hour Trip (AM) on August 21, 2025 • 2 adults
We had an amazing time on this fishing charter! Captain Christina was knowledgeable, friendly, and made sure we felt comfortable and extremely patient helping one person learn to fish. She knew all the best spots, and we caught plenty of fish. The boat was clean, well-maintained, and had everything we needed. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced angler, I highly recommend this charter for a fun and memorable day on the water. Seeing dolphins while traveling to different spots was phenomenal experience.

Super easy to find and park. Walked right onto the boat and Christina had us moving to our first spot. Caught dozens of fish and she kept our lines immediately replenished with bait so there was no downtime. Very kind and helpful to our daughter who had a blast. Thank you!
