Hoping to catch some fish in Naples?
These waters hold game fish like Snook, Black Drum, Redfish, Ladyfish, Tripletail, Pompano, Blacktip Shark, Jack Crevalle, Tarpon, Mangrove Snapper, and more with any luck. On these trips, you can expect to fish using light tackle artificial and plug lures. Capt. Joshua also offers fly fishing.
You'll find yourself aboard a 16' Dolphin flats boat with room for 2 passengers. It comes with all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. rods and reels(all high-end Shimano and gloomis) and tackle are provided, as well as lures.
The charter boat covers your fishing license, so all you have to do is look forward to your trip! Have in mind that some fish may have harvest limits or closed seasons. Simply ask and your captain can tell you more.
Don't forget to bring sunblock (non-spray), sunglasses. Drinks are included, free of charge. Alcohol is also allowed. The captain accepts cash, PayPal, Venmo and Zelle in person on the day of the trip, or credit/debit card payments over the phone at least one day before the trip.
Planning a family adventure? Kids are absolutely welcome! otherwise, Snacks are also a good idea so that nobody gets grumpy on an empty belly!
Depending on the season and species targeted, you will be able to keep some legal fish, but mostly you will engage in catch-and-release. Catch cleaning is available, for the species you do keep, so you can take your fish home without any hassle.

Half Day Trip (AM)
If you're looking for an incredible backwater fishing experience, look no further than this one! My recent trip with Captain Joshua was absolutely phenomenal, exceeding all expectations. We not only hit some truly stunning backwater spots but also reeled in an impressive haul of fish that made for an unforgettable day. From the moment we pushed off, it was clear that Captain Joshua knows these waters like the back of his hand. He skillfully navigated the intricate network of mangroves and shallow flats, always seemingly one step ahead of the fish. The boat seemed to be fueled by pure optimism. Thanks for a great.
