Depending on conditions, you might hook into Goliath Grouper, Sheepshead, Spadefish, Black Drum, Spanish Mackerel, Mangrove Snapper, Speckled Trout, Bull Shark, Jack Crevalle, Cobia, Ladyfish, Tarpon, and whatever else takes the bait.
On the day of your trip you're likely to hit the mangroves for some snook, reds and trout sheepies and snapper.
Children are welcome, so go ahead and bring the whole family along! If you don't have a child-sized life vest of your own, be sure to ask if there's one on board. Customers are encouraged to bring snacks – lucky for you, there will already be some on board!
You'll be dropping lines from a 23' Center console with capacity for 4 passengers. It has all the essentials no fishing machine can run without.
Capt. Charlie will provide rods and reels for you, as well as lures. Live bait is included, but be sure to ask about it so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.
The charter boat covers your fishing license, so all you have to do is show up ready for a good time! Keep in mind that you may release some fish due to regulations. Your captain will help you follow regulations while you fish.
Don't leave home without bottled water, sunscreen (non-spray), and sunglasses. Drinks are included, free of charge. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but try to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles. There will be some light snacks available on board.

Delaware, USMember since 20265.0VerifiedI can’t buy if I was ever back in Fort myers. I would call this guy and I will have to go fishing with him. The best I have ever been with love. This guy would a great captain. Frankly, the best captain.
Half day PM (4 hours) on May 15, 2026 • 4 adultsI gotta say this was the best fishing Experience in ever had I’ve never caught so many fish. I’m pretty positive that he must’ve paid somebody else to bring us to the best fishing spots. I can’t buy a one point. The fish were literally jumping into our hands. It was like this guy had to smell on the fish. I’ve never asked so. Many fish really enjoyed the time. Thank you very much. Charles.(inside joke)

Half day AM (4 hours) on February 28, 2026 • 2 adultsMy buddy and I went out with Captain Charlie and had a blast. We caught several fish and caught multiple species. Captain Charlie knows where the fish are. Captain Charlie was very personable and didn’t treat us like clients but like family. Captain Charlie didn’t look at his Watch the entire time like I’ve seen with previous charters. I highly recommend Captain Charlie. Book Em’ with Hook ‘Em!! #tightlines

Thank you guys for the review and for booking!
We are vacationing in Fort Myers beach for the first time and found Charlie online. He is knowledgable and made the trip fun from start to finish. He knows the local waters well and took us to multiple spots. In no time we were catching fish! The experience was great for both fishing enthusiasts and beginners. My nephew caught his first fish in 5+ years. Charlie hookem was attentive and made it a great exprience for all, I would definitely recommend him.
Glad you guys enjoyed! Looking forward to seeing you guys again! Thanks for booking!
