Make A Wake – Captiva Island 

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Exceptional Day on the Water with Captain Cody! If you are looking for a top-tier fishing charter in Captiva, look no further than Captain Cody. Our family of five (my wife, our three daughters, and myself) had an absolutely incredible day out on the water with him. Right from the start, we were impressed by his setup. Cody runs a beautiful, well-maintained 25’ Pathfinder bay boat equipped with a tower for spotting fish. It was incredibly spacious, and our entire family felt completely safe and comfortable the entire day. On top of that, all of his rods, reels, and gear are absolute top-of-the-line, which made the fishing experience even better. Cody’s energy is fantastic—he is super fun, enthusiastic, and has an encyclopedic knowledge of the local waters. He knew exactly where to go and kept us on a massive variety of fish all day long. We were constantly reeling them in, landing everything from Sea Trout and Snook to even a Grouper! What makes booking with Cody even better is knowing you are supporting a true local professional. This is Cody’s full-time job, and his charter business helps support his young family. His passion for his livelihood shows in every single detail of the trip. He was amazing with the kids, keeping everyone engaged, excited, and catching fish. It was easily one of the highlights of our trip. Thank you, Cody, for an unforgettable family day—we will absolutely be booking again next time we are in Captiva! Pros: Perfect family boat, high-end gear, highly knowledgeable, supports a great local family man. 10/10 highly recommend!

We had an excellent fishing trip with Captain Cody. He put us on fish all day with his strong knowledge of the area and great guiding. We landed trout, snook, snapper, and redfish, with the snook bite being the highlight of the trip. The boat handled perfectly, the equipment was excellent, and the service was top-notch from start to finish. Captain Cody’s expertise made the difference and turned it into a truly memorable trip. We’ll definitely be booking with him again in the future. Highly recommended.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Great trip and experience. Fortunate to have gone on many Florida fishing charters and would say this was one of the best. Amazing and timely communication prior to the trip. Open to our changes in group size without hesitation. Ahead of schedule waiting for us at the dock, fishing was Great, open to changing plans quickly as on this trip I had my 3 young daughters. Seen dolphins and manatees up close, stopped on sandbar for shells which my kids loved. Kept everyone entertained during down time. Even stayed out a hour longer then planned due to hot fishing spot and he refused payment for the extra time. Fillet and bagged our fish. Great professional!!!

We had an incredible time fishing with Cody! From the moment we met at the dock, it was clear that they really know their stuff — friendly, organized, and super knowledgeable about the area. We were on the fish almost immediately, and he knew exactly where to go to find the action. We landed a large variety of fish. 4-Red Grouper, Spanish Mack, 6-snook, 2- Redfish, Barracuda, 5-Sea Trout, and even a small goliath grouper inshore. Incredibly for a 6 hour charter!!!! Beyond the fishing, the conversation and atmosphere were top-notch. You can tell Cody genuinely loves what he does. If you’re looking for a fun, productive day on the water with someone who’ll put you on fish and make sure you have a great time doing it, I can’t recommend Cody enough. Can’t wait to book my next trip!

Cody set the tone for this trip early on by being responsive and clear throughout the whole booking process. We showed up at the dock to a fully stocked boat ——including live bait that was precaught—— something I havent seen other charters do this let us hit the water right away and go after our target fish. There were four of us in total and everyone caught multiple fish - including red snapper, Snook, Groupers, and Sea Trout I’d highly recommend this charter and look forward to getting back on the water with Cody.
