If you’re here to make the most of fishing in Naples, look no further than Cross Em’ Off Charters. Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Jim can tell you all about them. What’s on your bucket list? Be sure to tell us and we’ll do our best to cross it off!

These waters are known for Snook, Redfish, Tarpon, Spotted Seatrout, Mangrove Snapper, Bonnethead Shark, Goliath Grouper, Spanish Mackerel, Cobia, Permit, and more – with any luck, they’ll make your reel scream. You can expect to do some spinning, trolling, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.

Looking to get the whole family outdoors? Kids are absolutely welcome! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise, you should bring your own. Snacks are never a bad idea so that nobody gets cranky on an empty belly!

You’ll be casting lines from a 23’ Hanson Tower Boat center console that can carry up to 6 passengers. It comes with all the essentials. Your captain will provide rods and reels, as well as lures. Live bait is included, but it’s good to ask about this so you know if you’ll be catching it yourself.

The charter boat covers your fishing license, just show up ready for some fishing! Some fish have special regulations, including when you can keep them. Your captain will help you follow regulations while you fish. Don’t leave home without sunblock (non-spray), bottled water, and sunglasses. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Now, time to hit the water with Cross Em’ Off Charters!
