Based in the world-famous fishing destination of Naples, Florida, Captain Brian and his team of professional Captains at Smokin’ Hooks Fishing Charters offer saltwater fishing adventures in and around the famous Wiggins Pass that leads from Estero Bay to the Gulf of Mexico.

Smokin’ Hooks features a fleet of two Parker boats that are well-suited to offshore and nearshore fishing trips. At 26’, our Parker Walkarounds are just right for tackling choppier seas while still being able to fish closer to shore effectively. Both boats feature well-maintained 300 HP four stroke Yamaha engines to make sure you reach the fishing grounds in a snap. There is plenty of protection from the weather conditions, up-to-date marine electronics, and a live bait tank will make sure you get on the fish. Most importantly, there is plenty of deck space for up to six passengers and our vessels are rigged for comfortable fishing – not your backwater-style smaller boat. Smokin’ Hooks operates two Parker vessels so please message for availability on how to book both boats for groups with 7-12 passengers. Also, check out Smokin’ Hooks II for additional available times!

Smokin’ Hooks target pretty much all the fish that inhabit the waters within nine miles of the SW Floridian coastline. Whether you’re hoping to hook a tasty Mangrove Snapper or Cobia or fight a Barracuda, King Mackerel, or Shark, Captain Brian, Captain William and Captain Tyler have the experience necessary to provide an exciting, fun, and action-packed adventure. All fishing experience levels are catered to, from the most experienced angler to the first-timer or family group.

Your charter trip will include fishing licenses for everyone in your group, as well as custom rods and reels, and bait. Ice and bottled water are also provided, you can bring any food and drinks you might want during the trip. Your catch will also be filleted, bagged, and iced for you at the end of the trip.

Great Day for big fish!

VERIFIED

We had a great experience with Captain William hunting for the big one. My daughter wanted to catch a big fish. Captain William presented her with that opportunity several times with big fish on her line, but yep the big one(s) got away! We did boat a smaller Goliath, Cobia and several snapper. Conditions were a challenge, but Captain William really worked to get us in the spots and present several baits at different levels to catch fish. We’ll get them next time!!

Had a great time during our Naples fishing charter with Cap. Kyle and Vinny over at Smokin’ Hooks! My wife and boys loved the experience especially because all five of us got to catch several fish within the 3hr trip we booked. Definitely would recommend these guys as they were very attentive, knowledgeable and couldn’t have been more helpful!

We caught a lot of fish, but the big ones wouldn't bite. Captain tried to get the big ones to bite, but they just wouldn't hit the live bait fish. Overall, my son and I had a great time.

Nice day out. Captains made sure to move us when the fishing wasn’t good. Wish we had caught some bigger fish and more of them but can’t control that! William did a great job and will go out with him again.
