Joshua knows where, when and how to get on fish. I wanted to catch my first snook and he did not disappoint. The first cast I took, I had my first photo worthy snook. After a few more fish during the morning, he pointed me to a productive wall of mangroves and a topwater connection on a 28” snook. Joshua is friendly, knowledgeable and a great dude, someone you’d be wanting to fish with often. When I return to the Naples area, this is the guy I’m calling. Great day, great equipment, great guy!
Just spent the day with Capt. Josh! Extremely talented, very personable, excellent teacher, increased my fishing knowledge, great day trip! Highly recommend Capt Joshua Hyrczyk @ naplesbackwatercharters! I've fished with a lot of Guides from Florida to Canada, Josh is excellent! I look very much look forward to our next trip!
Amazing, just after one of the longest cold spells Southern Florida has seen, Capitan Josh still had his spots that did produce some good fish. Besides finding the fish, Josh will make it feel as if you were fishing with a good buddy with his friendly personality. Fished with some top rated tackle! Thanks for a wonderful time on the water.

The captain was good. Fishing was slow at the beginning and we stayed longer then scheduled time to get on the fish.

Josh was amazing. Clean skiff, top of the line Shimano gear, totally knowledgable on the local fishery. I really wanted to catch my first snook, and within 10 minutes of fishing I boated multiple fish. 100% will be booking Josh again if I come back to Naples.
