This was a last-minute bookingโฆI initiated the trip late afternoon before the morning we wanted to fish.ย Capt Barry connected shortly after with clear instructions for how/when to meet and everything we would need to be prepared.
The meet-up went just as planned, and we had an excellent outing.ย The boat was in good shape; the equipment was excellent.ย Capt Barry had us on fish the entire time.ย We didnโt catch any trophies, but were consistently catching fishโsix different species in all.ย
Capt Barry provided insightful guidance for both semi-experienced and low-experienced members of our party.ย He also shared a lot of interesting information on local habitat and wildlife.ย He was very friendly and engaging.ย He was very intentional about taking high quality pictures and sent all the pictures and a copy of the fish log shortly after the charter.ย
I would definitely book Capt Barry again.

Thanks for the awesome review! You guys were great to fish with! Take care, Capt Barry
Capt. Barry Cuda started off with a quick lesson on fishing safely and the rules on his boat. Within 5 minutes we were on fish. Catching 26 fish and 13 different species. He took amazing pictures of every fish we caught and every picture came out great as he was a professional photographer before starting his fishing charter business. It was nice not having to bait a single hook and watching him unhook the cat fish with his fancy flip. I grew up fishing inshore on the east coast of Florida and have never had as good of a day as I did with Capt. Barry. When he dropped us off at the dock another captain was waiting for people and he asked how our day was. When we told him we caught a 27.5 and 28 inch red fish, 3 snook and another 23 fish, he instantly knew he couldnโt do the same for the people he was taking out for the day and his face showed it. Capt Barry Cuda knows the waters and Iโm pretty sure the fish speakk to him on exactly where to cast the lines. I would personally recommend him to anyone who wants to enjoy there time on the water and catch fish.

You guys were great to fish with - awesome skills! Take care, Capt. Barry
We have lived in Naples for a year and caught nothing but catfish, so wanted to learn a new approach to inshore fishing. I took my wife and two kids out with Captain Barry and it was great!ย He was very knowledgeable, had some great life stories, but most of all, very patient and attentive with my kids. My 8 year old son caught 4 snook and my daughter was able to catch mangrove snapper. We were so excited to catch new fish but even more excited to take what we learned and reuse on the water. I would highly recommend Captain Barry!

Thanks for the great review! You guys were awesome! Teddy is going to be a great fisherman, and Natalie has the real spirit of adventure! Take care, Capt. Barry
We had a great time today with Captain Barry Cuda fishing.ย His boat is in excellent shape and is a really nice boat, very comfortable.ย Captain Cuda takes care of everything and provides you with great learning tips for salt water fishing and fishing these species.ย We had 9 different species in the boat today and some where firsts for myself, my brother and my Dad which made it a lot of fun.ย Thanks again for the great day Barry
Thanks! It was a real pleasure fishing with you guys!
With a beautiful day and a group of somewhat experienced fishermen, my 2 sons and I went fishing with Capt. Barry!! Without a doubt a day to remember!! Between me falling in, after a sudden change in boat equilibrium, and my eldest son catching both a 10โ tree AND a small engine, Capt Barry handled these problems with the knowledge of someone who has seen it all and fixed it all!! He not only put us at ease, but encouraged us to keep putting pour bait into the water!! My sons and I caught all sorts of fish including catfish, grouper and snooks!! The largest fish we caught was a nice 32โ!!! Capt Barry was knowledgeable, smart with fixes and a complete professional!! He is one I will be happy to use again and again as the rates were reasonable and well deserved!! Thanks for the GREAT time Capt Barry and look forward to seeing you again!!
