    Captain Chad was incredibly knowledgeable of the area. He put in some work on poling and sighting fish and delivered on the target species. An incredible day on the water, one we will never forget. Both me and my step son were able to check tarpon of the bucket list fish list. Highly recommend Mangrove Charters

    Great back country fishing

    Half Day Trip (PM) • 1 adult

    Captain was great. Boat and equipment was perfect for the fishing. Captain Chad really knew what he was doing and you could tell he had a passion for it, not just going through the motions. I would highly recommend.

    Great Captain for any type of fishing!

    Full Day Trip • 1 adult

    Although we struggled with bite conditions, Captain Chad absolutely knows what hes doing when it comes to sniffing out fish. Pleasure to fish with someone who so very clearly lives to fish and help others along that quest. Truly a pleasure! Whether its technical fly fishing you are seeking, or a day of the basics. You are in good hands!

What's biting with Mangrove Coast Charters in Punta Gorda

If you've been waiting for cooler weather, chances are October will be your saving grace. Fishing in the Gulf is still hot, though! Autumn is a great time to target Redfish if you feel like staying inshore.
