My Dad and I went out with Scout for a full day today and killed it!  We were on fish from the very start and caught: tarpon, snook, Goliaths, snapper, jacks, trout and even a catfish.  Fish were biting all day long.  Scout is a great guide and quickly moves to a new/better spot when the fish aren’t biting.  He was spot-on the entire day and great to shoot the sh*t with. Chokoloskee a truly special fishery and I couldn’t recommend this place and his services more.  We shall be back.

Best choice we made while staying at Marco Island was to book with Tightline Fishing. Scout was knowledgeable about fishing and didn’t give up until he found plenty of fish for us to catch.  Reds, Mangrove Snapper, Grouper, and even a few sharks!  He was able to take us offshore 10 miles where we were pulling fish after fish into the boat. I highly recommend you select Scout for your fishing trip while here.  Bonus was he really knows the history of the area and is an 8th generation fishing... More

Outstanding day of fishing with Captain Scout as he filled the bait well first thing in the morning with two casts of his net and then proceeded to go deep inshore as the wind was kicking up early. Sprain put all three of us on fish in mangrove nooks & crannies and we had steady action of four hours with 20”-26” snook, a one-off redfish, and 5 juvenile grouper -largest 40lbs.   Captain Scout was great with my 15-year-old grandson & his 13-year-old buddy!   ...

We had a wonderful Afternoon. It was a really joyable ride to a few of Scout’s ‘secret’ fishing holes. Everybody caught fish, enjoyed the beauty of the area and got some sun. Saw assorted birds, dolphin’s and a stingray jumping ( didnt know they did that). Last night we hosted 10 for a great trout dinner. We will definately book again.

My wife and I went on a half day trip with Capt. Scout and had an absolute blast. We caught a variety of species and did not have a slow moment. Capt. Scout is very knowledgeable of the Ten Thousand island area. I highly recommend going out with this outfit!
