If you plan on fishing Southwest Florida, look no further than Floridaze Fishing Charters. Having grown up on these waters, Captain Brandon can tell you all about the local fishery, history and what makes this place so special.

These waters hold game fish like Snook, Speckled Trout, Redfish, Tarpon, Gag Grouper, Red Grouper, Tripletail, Jack Crevalle, Mangrove Snapper, Lane Snapper, Blacktip Shark, Black Drum, and more with any luck. You'll target your catch by spinning, drifting, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.

Looking to get the whole family outdoors? Kids are absolutely welcome! Children must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board. Snacks are never a bad idea so that nobody gets grumpy on an empty belly!

Your day begins aboard a 22' Maverick bay boat that can carry up to 6 passengers. It has a fighting chair and all the essentials. You'll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you, as well as lures. Live bait is on offer, but you should ask the captain whether you'll be catching it yourself.

Your fishing license for the day is covered by the charter boat, so all you have to do is show up ready for a good time! 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, sunblock (non-spray), and a hat. Drinks are included, free of charge. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, so long as you avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

And that's it! Your fishing trip with Floridaze Fishing Charters is just a click away.

Fishing these waters is not only a job for me but a passion, and I work tirelessly to track fish throughout the year to ensure my guests have the best day possible. I am a 7th generation Floridian and the 3rd generation to fish these waters. Since the time I could hold a rod, I have fished the same waters I bring guests out to. Guiding has been a dream of mine since I was a child. It is the only job I have ever had that I never snooze my alarm, even as much as I value sleep.
