If you plan on fishing in Everglades City and the 10000 Thousand Islands, look no further than Sea Drogue Charters.

Fishing has been pretty good, just some of the species you can catch around here include Snook, Tarpon, Redfish, Mangrove Snapper, Speckled Trout, Sheepshead, Bull Shark, Goliath Grouper, and more if conditions allow. You can expect to do some spinning, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area. For the more adventurous among you, there’s bowfishing.

Families making a day of it will be glad to know that kids are recommended! Life jackets of all sizes! And, you can’t go wrong with snacks so that nobody gets cranky on an empty stomach!

You’ll be casting lines from a 23’ C-Hawk center console that can carry up to 4 passengers. It has all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. Rods, reels, and tackle are provided, along with lures. Live bait is available, every day is different I try to stay prepared!

The charter boat covers your fishing license, so you can drive right over and come aboard without any hassle! Some fish have special regulations, including when you can keep them. If you don’t know what to expect, ask the captain.

It’s always wise to bring sunglasses, sunscreen, bottled water, and a hat. If you’d like to bring other drinks,  Alcohol is allowed in moderation!!

Venmo and Cash App are also accepted as forms of payment.

Go ahead and treat yourself to a day on the water with Sea Drogue Charters.
