Captain Christy was awesome and we had a wonderful time fishing. Captain knew the spots to fish as the tide and water changed. Everyone caught fish and we came home with fresh Red Snapper for dinner!

The Angler's Choice Award is given to listings that consistently deliver a high-quality service and earn great reviews from customers.

If this boat is not available, check our other 2 listings. Captain Jeff Littlejohn grew up in Jacksonville, Florida. He fell in love with the water at a young age, splitting his summers between Myrtle Beach, SC, and Jacksonville Beach. In 2000, Jeff moved to Fort Myers. His wife, Captain Christy Lee, holds a Master Captain License, is a Native of Fort Myers, shares his passion for fishing, and runs most of the fishing charters on the 24' boat. Captain Jeff has turned his passion into a successful career, often guiding his guests through the beautiful waters of Estero Bay and the Gulf of Mexico.They say if you love what you do, you'll never work a day in your life. For Capt. Christy, that started at age 5. Growing up in the waters of Fort Myers and Bonita Springs wasn't just a childhood—it was her training ground. From her first rod to running Just Livin' the Dream Charters, these mangroves and flats are more than just a job site; they're home. When you book with a native, you aren't just getting a boat ride—you're getting decades of local secrets and a lifetime of passion. Ready to see why we call it 'Livin' the Dream'?
