If you're going to cast a line in Fort Myers, look no further than Bay West Fishing. Your guide for the day is Captain Brett, allowing you to benefit from their angling experience. He offers charters in the Gulf of America, inshore, nearshore, and offshore up to 25 miles. He is federally permitted for trips past 9 miles in the Gulf!
The fish in these waters include Red Grouper, Sheepshead, Mangrove Snapper, Spanish Mackerel, Yellowtail Snapper, Goliath Grouper, Lane Snapper, Cobia, Speckled Trout, Snook, Gag Grouper, Ladyfish, and more, depending on the season. You can expect to do some spinning, trolling, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.
You'll be casting lines from a 21' Sea Pro center console with space for 4 passengers. It comes with everything you need for a productive day on the water. Capt. Brett will provide rods and reels for you, as well as lures. Live bait is available, but be sure to ask about it so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.
The charter boat covers your fishing license, just show up ready for a good time! Keep in mind that you may release some fish due to regulations. Simply ask and your captain can tell you more.
Don't leave home without bottled water, sunscreen (non-spray), and sunglasses. If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but you should avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.
Go ahead and treat yourself to a day on the water with Bay West Fishing.

my nine year old son and myself had the best time. limited out on a type of fish in first hour and went to different spots to try for others. we caught so many different species of fish i dont even remember what they all were. brett knew the right spots and the good spots. was very knowledgeable. and very laid back. but will definitely work at finding fish and trying other spots. i would definitely recommend. great guy great service great fishing had awesome time. my son is still grinning from ear to ear cant wait to eat our catch. brett cleaned them so fast. will be back again on future trips.
Thanks for the great review ! Glad you guys had a good time. Im looking forward to fishing again in the future ! 🙏🏽
I told Capt Brett I wanted to catch some to cook up at a local restaurant. We had a limit in about 20 minutes! Spent the rest of the day looking for a big one. Caught several other species but nothing huge. Which was OK by me. Brett’s company and conversation on the boat made the trip. Just a super nice dude who also knows his stuff on the water. Can highly recommend.
Thanks for the great review Michael! You were a pleasure to have aboard and look forward to having you back on future trips. That snapper looks amazing in the picture 🙏🏽
My husband, our 7-year-old son, and I spent a fantastic four hours fishing with Captain Brett. It was such a memorable experience that our son actually asked if we could "do that again tomorrow?" Needless to say, Junior ended up catching most of the fish—a great variety, too—and we even brought home fresh fish for dinner, cleaned by Brett right on the dock when we finished. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and highly recommend Bay West Fishing for your next fishing excursion. We will definitely be booking another experience!
Thank you guys for the awesome review. Had such a great time with your family and you guys are always welcome back!
I took my son and his friends back water fishing, and they had a great time and caught a variety of fish, including black drum, snapper, jack, and nearly a red that got away at the last second.
Thanks for the great review! ill be looking forward to fishing with you guys again in the future.
Captain Brett made sure we had the best time and got on some fish. He was great helping the kids and man did we catch some fish. Too many to eat! He recommended a local spot to have it cooked as well. Amazing day!
Your family is always welcome back ! Had a great time and looking forward to fishing again in the future 🙏🏽
