Will it beat you and get back to its hole, breaking you off...or will you be the victor who brings this tasty fish up off the bottom? Book now & lets find out! Highly Recommend!

There's nothing quite like the spending 8 hours in the productive waters surrounding Fort Myers! Capt. Joey specializes in back bay and inshore fishing for Redfish, Snook, Trout, and Tarpon. You can also target other species including Sharks, Permit, King Mackerel, and Grouper depending on the time of year. He'll provide all the gear you need to make sure you have a productive day doing so!

With a couple more hours on the water, you can hit a greater range of habitats to target an even more diverse range of species. Alternatively, you can head straight to the most productive areas around and fill the boat with enough fish to feed an army.

Spend the entire day on the water, battling the biggest and meanest fish that Southwest Florida has to offer. You can stay inshore, battling Tarpon, Snook, Redfish, and Trout, or head out to the reefs to target Grouper, Cobia, Kingfish, and more.

Tarpon trips are always a thrill, and a great way to put your skills to the test. Use light tackle for the ultimate challenge and come face-to-gills with the "Silver King." Rods, reels, and tackle are provided, as well as your fishing license. Pack some sunscreen, sunglass, a hat, and your favorite food and drinks, and get ready to put up a fight!

Offshore trips are out to 9 miles off the coast depending on the length of the trip. We fish various reefs, wrecks, and bottom structure that offer a variety of fishing options. We specialize in putting you on big fish and will do what it takes to make sure you get a chance to experience what drag screaming is all about.

The most popular choice! This trip includes fishing inshore around local mangrove islands as well as grass flats, from Fort Myers to Pine Island. You'll chase some of Florida's most prized game fish, such as Tarpon, Snook, Redfish, Shark, Trout, and many other! There's also a good chance to encounter dolphins and manatees. This trip is suitable for the more experienced solo angler to the large group looking to have a great time on the water.

Head out to some local wrecks and reefs, targeting Snapper, Cobia, Grouper, King Mackerel, Sharks and many more! This trip goes no more than 10 miles offshore and offers the chance to target larger reef fish and predators.

A full-day trip allows us to fish more places and go to where the target fish are, even if they’ve moved out of the Sanibel area. A full-day trip may include fishing areas up to 50 miles away from the Sanibel boat launch, if needed, to find the best fishing. This is the trip if your goal is a trophy Snook, Redfish, or Shark or you want to fill up a cooler with tasty fish.
