Capt. Miguel

Member since December 2021 Cape Coral, United States

Background: Meet Capt. Miguel—the award-winning heart of Reel Fishing SWFL Charters with over 20 years of local water knowledge and a passion for putting guests on fish. Known for his friendly vibe, precision, and unmatched experience, he customizes every trip to fit your goals, skill level, and style. From back bays to Gulf waters, Capt. Miguel delivers unforgettable fishing adventures led by a captain who truly lives for the thrill of the catch.
Techniques: My go-to fishing approach blends free-lining, bottom fishing, and popping corks, allowing me to adapt to different conditions and maximize every trip’s success. Free-lining keeps the bait moving naturally, enticing aggressive predators. Bottom fishing targets deep-dwelling species, ensuring a steady bite. Popping corks create irresistible surface action, drawing in fish from a distance. This versatile combination gives me the flexibility to target a wide range of prized species, making every cast count.

Caught several Red fish in a 6hr trip!

Sep 29, 2023 Cape Coral

The Red Fish have arrived! Due to a significant drop in water temperature from 97 degrees to 82 degrees, the Red Fish and other local fish have become more active. This is an opportune time to be out on the water pursuing that once-in-a-lifetime catch. I have found success in catching them primarily using live bait and chunks of cut-bait fish.

Trophy trout!

Jun 26, 2023 Cape Coral

Capt. Miguel took us to some great spots. We caught a variety of fish including snook, needlefish, catfish, ladyfish and sea trout. He was very knowledgeable of the area and patient with our children. We would definitely book this charter again.

Capt. Miguel’s was awesome. Put us on the fish all day. When the bite changed he changed spots and changed tactics to keep us hooking up all day all while giving us a history on different spots inshore as we went. It was really a pleasure. Will absolutely book again.

Thank you! I really appreciate the kind words. It was a pleasure having you onboard, and I’m glad you enjoyed the fishing and the stories along the way. Adjusting to keep the bite going is what it’s all about—happy we kept those lines tight all day! Can’t wait to do it again soon. — Captain Miguel
