October Fishing Report – Boca Grande / Charlotte Harbor October has been off the charts! The inshore bite has been on fire with big snook and redfish showing up in great numbers throughout Boca Grande and Charlotte Harbor. The cooler mornings and steady tides have really fired up the fish, and we’ve been putting clients on some serious quality. Snook have been stacked up around the passes and mangrove edges, crushing live bait, while oversized reds have been tailing on the flats and along the shorelines. It’s been one of those months where every trip brings multiple big hookups and happy anglers. If you’ve been thinking about booking a trip, now’s the time — the fall action is in full swing, and it’s only getting better from here. Tight lines, Captain Matt Newberry Southwest Shorelines Fishing Charters
