What's biting with Smokin’ Hooks in Naples
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.

Epic week of adventures out of Wiggins P
Oct 8, 2020 • Naples
The fishing has been ON out of Wiggins Pass with Captain Brian and Crew at Smokin’ Hooks. We’ve landed Pompano, Barracuda, Cobia, Macks, Snook, Snapper and more this week despite some windy weather.
Even better than the fishing is the memories made this week. We can’t recall a more solid week of epic customers - just back to back awesome people on board. Just know you made our week!

Goliath Grouper time
Jul 5, 2020 • Naples
We’ve been picking back up with the Summer bite out of Wiggins Pass. The waters have warmed up and the Barracuda bite along with the Goliath Grouper has been very active.
There’s been a nice Gulfshore breeze that provides some relief for the afternoon trips. We have been able to avoid the typical afternoon showers and have been on the water most days for both morning and afternoon trips. Thinking about what to do to stay active and have fun? Get out on the water with Captain Brian and crew!

Winter 2020 - Fishing with Smokin’ Hooks
Jan 24, 2020 • Naples
This past week has been phenomenal. Today on an 8 hour trip we ran a total of only 12 miles and were catching fish all day. So many that FWC came by at the dock to check us out!
Left the docks at 8 from Wiggins Pass and journeyed out after a wicked cold front with some variable seas. The forecast called for the seas to lay down by midday so Captain and crew were optimistic. Within fifteen minutes of anchoring down we landed a nice King Mackeral and had a Triggerfish on board. The day proved fruitful with Kings, Snapper, Spanish Mackeral hooking up with our lines. The rest of the weeks been active, even yesterday with a cold front and backwater fishing we hooked up to a nice Redfish and some good keepers.

October Fishing is still going strong
Oct 10, 2017 • Naples
Took a group of three out 3-6 miles to several spots out of Wiggins Pass in North Naples. The goal today was to keep catching and bring plenty home for dinner so we didn't target any game fish. Kept busy the entire 5 hour trip and filled the bucket. Kingfish are starting to hit, keeper Lane Snappers, Silver Snappers - good variety today. The Groupers were a bit undersized but they are still out there. Overall, excellent for mid-October.
Charters haven't been as frequent post - hurricane Irma however EVERY trip has been jammin' - no bad days!
