Nestled in Florida's untamed Big Bend region, Econfina River Resort offers premier fishing charters in one of the state's most pristine and ecologically rich environments. This secluded paradise combines untouched wilderness with exceptional angling opportunities across diverse habitats, from freshwater stretches to brackish estuaries and coastal flats.
Econfina River Resort fishing charters provide access to legendary waters teeming with trophy species. Target feisty largemouth bass in the upper river's tannic currents, battle hard-fighting redfish in marsh-lined shallows, and sight-cast to tailing black drum along oyster bars. The estuary mouth excels for speckled trout, especially during morning and evening bites, while seasonal runs bring thrilling encounters with silver-king tarpon in summer and bruiser black drum in spring. Sheepshead, cobia, and pelagic species like king mackerel add to the year-round diversity.
Guided by captains with intimate knowledge of these waters, your charter adventure unfolds amidst breathtaking scenery of salt marshes, sand-bottomed creeks, and expansive grass flats. Beyond fishing, the area's vibrant ecosystem hosts bobcats, nesting birds, and manatees, creating an immersive wilderness experience. Modern lodge amenities await your return, blending rustic charm with comfort after days spent exploring this authentic slice of Old Florida.
