Fishing in Naples

In the heart of the Paradise Coast, where the turquoise waters of the Gulf of Mexico meet beautiful white sandy beaches, lies a year-round fishery that'll leave you breathless. Fishing in Naples, Florida is an adventure you have to live to believe! Made up of mangroves, shallow flats, inland canals teeming with fish, as well as productive reefs and wrecks, you’ll find everything an avid fisherman needs.

If you're looking for a family adventure you can take your kids on, backcountry charters are your best option. These half day trips will have you fishing closer to town, targeting the likes of Snook, Redfish, Seatrout, Black Drum, Sheepshead, Sharks, and Flounder. If you’re up for a challenge, book a specialized fly fishing Tarpon trip, and finally bag that trophy “Silver King!”

Cruise the deep waters off the coast of Naples to reel in some tough-fighting creatures. Investing in a full day trip will get you in the range of Snapper, Grouper, Cobia, Amberjack, King Mackerel, and Permit. If you’re looking to tick some big game fish off your bucket list, opting for an extended deep sea charter will put you on monsters like Mahi Mahi, Tuna, and various big bottom dwellers.

With its fishing reputation, it’s no surprise that Naples is full of fishing charters ready to take you on your journey. Head down to the Naples Bay and take your pick, or visit the docks on Marco Island with a variety of boats at your disposal. No matter where you go, you’re sure to have a good time!

Rules & Regulations

Booking a trip with a fishing charter in Naples will cover your fishing licenses. Note that some fish species have strict regulations in Florida, so the best way to make sure you’re fishing within the law is heading out with a reputable captain.

Naples Fishing Seasons

January

With colder waters, inshore fish are gathering in deeper holes and channels in the back bays – a lot of species are available in a small area. Spotted Seatrout, Pompano, Redfish, and Black Drum are just a few on offer.

February

The weather can be changeable. This makes flexibility key, with a lot on offer for those in the know. As well as Sheepshead, Mangrove Snapper, and Trout, warm-water species like Snook and Redfish appear.

March

The days start to get longer and strong east winds keep the water clean and clear. Tarpon starts to come into the coves, flats, and backcountry, and Snook starts to migrate to the passes. Trout is consistently good on the grass flats.

April

Warmer weather starts to settle in, with water temperatures in the 70s. This is a transition month, so the weather can be unpredictable. Get it right, and you'll have great fishing for Snook, Redfish, Tarpon, and Shark.

May

May sees large numbers of Snook getting ready to spawn around the shoreline and passes. Tarpon fishing is excellent in the early morning and late evening. The weather is warm and reliable this time of year.

June

This is the peak time to sight fish for Snook, catching and releasing as per regulations. Tarpon fishing is good off the beaches and Sharks are caught in the shallow bays and nearshore.

July

Early morning and late evening fishing remains the best option, with large numbers of Snook still congregating in the passes to spawn. You can also find exciting Shark fishing in the bays.

August

Temperatures are very high in the daytime, so most fishing is limited to early morning and evenings. Offshore, seas are calm. This can be a good opportunity to put meat in the freezer – Kingfish, Snapper, and Grouper are biting well.

September

Hurricanes can potentially disrupt fishing as the weather starts to transition towards the fall. Nearshore, you will find King and Spanish Mackerel biting well, with large Bull Reds also in the cards.

October

Water temperatures cool considerably, making the all-day bite better than it was in previous months. Fish start to move into the back bays and passes. The Redfish bite is on fire in October.

November

Speckled Trout migrate into the back bays and are caught in good numbers over shallow patchy grass areas. You can find Bluefish and Pompano in the same spots. King and Spanish Mackerel are around nearshore.

December

This is Southwest Florida's busiest time of year, with comfortable temperatures throughout the day and good fishing for Snook, Trout, Redfish, Pompano, and Jack inshore. Offshore, there are Kingfish, Snapper, and Grouper.

Our trip was not specifically for fishing, more for a combination of shelling, fishing and bird/dolphin watching. We only caught a couple of fish, but we did not fish very long so were pleased with what we caught.

As a mom traveling alone with my two teen kids, safety is a huge concern with any activities we do. Stanley was awesome! He was welcoming, kind and very helpful! I have very little experience when it comes to fishing, and quite honestly only booked the trip for my sonโ€™s benefit. But Stanley helped the entire time, and I never felt like a burden. We all caught a wide variety fish, and we all had a great time and created lots of memories! We will definitely book again.

I brought the Family on this fishing trip. We went out to 2 different island locations with beaches where we fished and some of our group walked the beach and searched for shells. We had a great time and caught a large assortment of fish using shrimp. It was super fun and the captain was very friendly and accommodating.

Captain Edwin was great. He took us to some great fishing grounds and took care of us while we were fishing. He baited the hooks, took the fish off, and gave tips on how to fish. He was very positive, fun to be out there with, and did everything he could to make sure we caught fish. I would definitely go out with him again.

Went with 6 people on a 6-hour trip. The captain put us on the fish all day! Got one large permit, lost 3 mostly due to the lack of angling experience, but a lot was learned. Captain Howard is a passionate charter captain that made sure my guests were taken care and had a great day on the boat, Highly recommend Team Lobo and Captain Howard. A lot of laughs, fishing, and fun!

We caught lots of kingfish as well as mangrove snappers. Nothing against them but they recommended the fish house to cook the fish and they would not cook the kingfish because it had the skin on them. If you want them to cook the fish, make sure there is no skin

This is our second trip with Captain RJ and we had another fantastic trip. We caught over 10 varieties of fish today including these two beauties above. Do yourself a favor and just book your trip with Captain RJ! He works his butt off and if they are biting, heโ€™ll have you on them.

We had so much fun with Captain Jason. My husband was the star catching this 24โ€ black drum. My daughter caught 5 fish including catfish and this snapper. I was catching nothing. Jason wouldnโ€™t quit until I finally caught this catfish 2 minutes before we had to quit. We will definitely fish with him again. Highly recommend!

Booked a 4-hour inshore for my visiting brother, girlfriend, and myself. We caught a lot of fish and enough keepers for dinner. Capt. was AWESOME... he was a cool breeze! Very calm and very, very helpful! My girlfriend had never been fishing before and by the end of our trip she was casting the open-face reels better than my brother and I... all due to the Capt's patience and guidance!! He was awesome and we had a GREAT day on the water!!

We had a fun trip with three generations of our family, and Capt Craig got us on some fast bites, with many species and lots of fish to take home for some great meals. Craig and mate Walker were very helpful in getting bait and unhooking dozens of fish.

This was my familyโ€™s third time fishing with Captain RJ and he is the best! He is extremely kind and knowledgeable. We have had nothing but great experiences with him. This trip caught a monster tarpon and he was extremely helpful in making sure we got the fish to the boat. Captain RJ works hard the entire trip to make sure you have the most opportunities to land fish. He is the best!

Captain RJ works hard to move around to find as many great spots as possible, Today, he spotted an area that he thought would yield sharks and action. He was right! We landed a HUGE tarpon that took almost 15 minutes to bring in. RJ had to jump onto the swim platform to get the line out of the prop and he expertly coached us during the fight to reel it in. He is patient, kind, and works HARD to make sure you have a great day!
