Maxed Out Charters is all about fishing the stunning waters of Sanibel.Captain Billy will be your guide, so you'll benefit from years of angling experience.

Depending on the time of year, you might hook into Bluefish, Black Drum, Redfish, Sheepshead, Whiting, Mangrove Snapper, Spanish Mackerel, Lane Snapper, Spotted Seatrout, and who knows what else!
For these species, you're likely to bottom fish using light tackle.

Planning a family adventure? Kids are absolutely welcome! If you don't have a child-sized life vest of your own, be sure to ask if there's one on board. Snacks are never a bad idea so that nobody gets grumpy on an empty belly!

You'll be fishing aboard a Skeeter SX2550 bay boat that holds up to 6 passengers. It has all the essentials no fishing machine can run without.
You'll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you, as well as lures. Live bait is on offer, but you should ask the captain whether you'll be catching it yourself.

There's no need to buy a fishing license, so all you have to do is look forward to your trip! Have in mind that you may release some fish due to regulations. Simply ask and your captain can tell you more.

A few items to bring include sunglasses, bottled water, and sunblock (non-spray). Drinks are included, free of charge. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but try to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Great Birthday Gift from my wife.
6 Hour Trip on March 28, 20262 adults

Me and my wife caught a lot of fish. Billy of Maxed Out Charters was a great Guide and Captain. Our first time out near Cape Coral. Of course my wife out caught and out casted me. I caught a Bonnet Shark which is why I wanted to go out. We also caught multiple Trout, Mackerel, Lady Fish, Snook, Catfish and Jack fish. Also got to see some Dolphin along the way. Definitely highly recommended. Mark & Lori

Reported catch:
Snook
Spanish Mackerel
Speckled Trout
