"Miserable day"... not!
Inshore Fishing Part Day (4hr) on April 8, 20262 adults

Capt Yanni called me the morning of our trip with Sam to give us an out. It was windy and it would be challenging. He said, it's gonna be "miserable." We rolled the dice, headed into the wind and the backcountry and came back with dinner. Sure enough it was not a typical day. But Sam worked hard to put us on fish. Great experience and great communication from both Yanni and Sam. Would re book in a heartbeat as these guys give a sh-t and it shows!

Tarpon Full Day (6hr) on June 2, 20263 adults

We all got to feel the tarpon fight! Not all boat captains are built equal. Clark made it happen. He knew when and where the fish were, and how to get the best odds of hooking them. Communication in advance was also excellent. Highly recommend and will use again personally for more fishing.

Top Shelf Guide Service
Tarpon Part Day (4hr) on May 8, 20264 adults

This is a client-oriented guide service. They helped us choose the right time of day to fish for tarpon. If we would have had more time, they would have helped us schedule the best days for the trip. Roger is pleasant company and has years of local experience. .My family and I had a great fishing experience.

I grew up as a kid coming to Boca Grande to our beach home each weekend to fish with Dad. I was in Love with Boca Grande, it's my favorite place in the world still. Have a rich history of Tarpon fishing in our family. I love being out on the water especially night time, fishing for Tarpon, Snook and Permit with the best tackle to make it fun!
