Member since September 2021 Naples, United States
Background
Captain Perry is a third-generation Floridan whose earliest memories belong to his home waters of Southwest Florida. His father got him into fishing at a young age as he showed him the broad spectrum of opportunities that the local fishery provides. From fishing in the creeks of the backcountry for Snook to bottom fishing for Grouper and Snapper offshore, his father showed him everything. Thanks to him, Captain Perry had been learning to become a guide his whole life without even knowing it. This fishery is engraved into his DNA and it's now his passion to share it with you.

Fishing Reports

Spring break fishing
Spring break fishing
Mar 17, 2025 Naples
The March rush is here and we're fishing hard every day. We're on our transition into spring and good things are happening both inshore and offshore. Water temps have been on the rise which has led to increased activity with numerous different species. The bite with live pilchards has been picking up nicely in the backcountry. Snook, Redfish and jacks have been steady on all of our trips back there. There have some still been some winter time fish hanging around on the cooler mornings which have been nice for those seeking a meal. Sheepshead fishing has been very solid in the mornings with some Trout mixed in which have led to some great meals. Our offshore fishery is right on track and everything is showing up like clockwork. Big schools of Permit have been showing up and they've been complying nicely. We also will typically get a few shots at some Cobia while we're Permit fishing. There are also massive schools of Baracudas around as well which are always fun and have been eating artificals nicely. Further offshore there is a great snapper bite with other good action on the wrecks. Amber jacks, Jack crevalles, Cobia, Sharks, Baracudas, and Goliaths have been very steady. Our fishery will only get better from here on out as we progress further into spring. Our March calendars are basically almost full with a couple halfdays available here and there. April is beginning to fill up nicely as well. Spring yields some of the best charters of the whole year! Don't miss your opportunity to experience it. Please reach out to any of our captains regarding any questions you may have.
