Welcome to Your Ultimate Fishing Adventure in Southwest Florida!

With a lifetime of experience fishing the waters of Southwest Florida, I’m here to provide you with an unforgettable charter experience, whether you’re looking to explore inshore or nearshore. I pride myself on honesty and transparency, ensuring you know exactly what to expect regarding the fishing conditions and what’s biting during your chosen time of year.

The inshore waters are full of fantastic opportunities to catch Snook, Redfish, Tarpon, and Sea Trout, with plenty of fish available for keeping if you wish.

If you prefer the nearshore experience, you’ll have the chance to reel in Cobia, Permit, Kingfish, and a variety of Snapper, Grouper, and all types of sharks.

My boat is a 23-foot Dorado with a tower that provides an excellent vantage point for spotting fish from a distance. The boat has very large live wells and fish boxes which gives it a very big advantage to have all types of bait at all times.

I welcome families and kids, making this a great outing for everyone involved.

Each trip includes complimentary water and ample cooler space. I highly recommend bringing sunscreen, sunglasses, a hat, and any additional food or drinks you’d like to enjoy while out on the water.

Let me know your goals for the trip, and I’ll do my best to help you achieve them. Book your charter today and get ready for an incredible fishing adventure!

Fish on! with Captain Brantley
Half Day Trip – Inshore on February 18, 20262 adults
Great day of near shore and in shore fishing with Brantley for my son and I. We caught sheepshead, snapper, grouper and the elusive toad fish (this you don’t want). the sheepshead were keepers which he filleted and we had prepared at a local restaurant. great eating! top of the line boat, equipment and captain. i will fish again with Brantley.
