Justin Setzekorn5.0VerifiedLanded 15 different types of fish!
6 Hour Fishing Trip on March 28, 2026 • 4 adultsWe had a great day with our guide Kyle today, he was able to take us to the fish where we landed 15 different types of fish, and over 70 fish in total! Cruised with dolphins, and our kids had a great time! We left with lots of fish to eat and some great memories!
Tyler Wilhelm5.0VerifiedA Fishing experience well worth your time and $
6 Hour Fishing Trip on April 16, 2025 • 5 adults • 2 childrenWe had an amazing adventure with Capt. Nick. He took care of my family like his own. My wife and 3 boys (8, 11, and 15) had an amazing day on the water. Capt Nick did an excellent job getting us into fish right off the bat and in every spot we went. We caught 10 different species of fish! We also saw multiple dolphins, so many different species of birds, a large bull shark and so many manatees! Capt Nick hooked us up (pun intended) with filleting our catch and recommended a great local restaurant that cooked our catch for us (delicious). We 100% recommend Native Guided Fishing charter and Capt Nick. And will choose them again for our next fishing adventure in southwest Florida.
Jennifer Gibbons5.0VerifiedGreat Experience with Captain Nick!
Fishing and Sightseeing Combo (PM) on April 18, 2025 • 4 adults • 1 childTook my family out on Captain Nick’s boat for some fishing in Marco Island. We were all pretty much beginners but by the end, we felt completely comfortable and confident! Caught some catfish and just had a great day on the water. Captain Nick was great and really made our trip. Would highly recommend and would definitely do it again if we come back!
Barbara Degroy5.0VerifiedBest captain, best fish!
Half Day Trip (PM) on March 12, 2024 • 1 adultI spent an afternoon with Captain Kyle. We fished several locations for various species with some luck, and on one of the last casts of the day caught an absolute monster of a blue fish, 33". He put up serious fight, and was too big for the net, but we finally got him into the boat. It was an exciting end to a perfect afternoon on the water. I hope to fish with Kyle again when I'm in the area, highly recommend!
Scott Host5.0VerifiedHuge snook
4 Hour Fishing Trip on August 9, 2024 • 5 adults • 3 childrenWe went out 3 days after a tropical storm so we knew it might be tough with dirty water. We brought our 3 boys, 10, 8, and 7, and we had a great time. Captain Wes kept the lines baited and found spots to keep the boys busy with action. Multiple catfish, sea trout, and mangrove snapper. We saw 10 plus dolphins so added bonus. Then my wife landed a 29 inch snooker to end the day.

Half Day Trip (PM) on March 18, 2024 • 6 adults • 2 childrenAlthough we didn’t go home with a trophy, we DID absolutely catch fish. Our guide made sure that the kids had fun first and foremost which was important. We didn’t stay in any one place to long and he made sure we didn’t go to long between bites. We caught trout, catfish, bonnet head sharks and a few other things from the sea. Would definitely recommend of catching is your goal!

Taylor Bourassa5.0VerifiedBest Fishing Trips!
4 Hour Fishing Trip on January 24, 2024 • 5 adults • 2 childrenWe’ve done trips multiple times per year with our family and have used Native Guided every time! We have the best time, catch lots of varieties of fish, and always get to bring our fresh catch for an awesome lunch/dinner to a local restaurant to enjoy. This is always a MUST for our trips to Marco Island/Goodland. Will be back!
