Highly Recommend Capt Jack

3/4 Day Fishing/Shelling Trip2 adults

My wife and I spent two days inshore fishing with Captain Jack. He communicated well, was timely and professional. We caught a nice variety of fish Sea trout, Sheepshead, Mangrove Snapper and Snook. He made an extra effort to get us to some Snook for catch and release since it was on of my bucket list fish. Would recommend him to anyone coming to the Ft Myers area.

    Capt Jack puts you on the fish!

    Half Day Trip – Inshore • 6 adults

    Jack was great with communication before the trip, and he made an excellent decision to put our trip off a couple days later due to weather. When we went, he was super helpful with getting the teenage boys on the fish. We caught all of the species (snook, mangrove snapper, red fish, Jack, ladyfish, and even a younger goliath grouper!). Recommend booking towards the beginning of the week so Jack has options if weather is a potential issue. Thanks Jack! We can’t wait to go again!!!

    The Highlight of Our Trip!

    Half Day Trip – Inshore - 1:00 PM • 4 adults

    This was our second time booking a private charter with Captain Jack, and once again, it did not disappoint. We spent the day fishing in the Gulf off the Fort Myers Beach area and had an incredible time on the water. We were thrilled to land some impressive Snook and Grouper, but what really sets Captain Jack apart is his dedication to his clients. Mother Nature threw us a curveball and forced us to change our original plans, but Captain Jack went above and beyond, working a Saturday afternoon to make sure we still got our time on the water. His expertise and flexibility made all the difference. If you're looking for a top-tier, professional experience in the Fort Myers area, Captain Jack is the best in the business. We already can’t wait for our next trip!

    The Right Person became a Captain

    3/4 Day Trip – Inshore • 2 adults

    Captain Jack is a great person who is very accommodating and willing to find you fish. It will be obvious to any fishermen that Jack knows not only what he's doing but also how best to adapt during the trip in order to put you on fish and help achieve your goal for the charter. We had great conversations, limited out on fish, and most importantly made a new friend we would take great joy in chartering with again in Captain Jack.

    Great day for fishing!

    Half Day Trip – Inshore • 2 adults

    Captain Jack taught us a lot about the eco system and fishing in Florida. We caught several different types of fish. We even got to see a dolphin. Weather held out for a beautiful day of fishing!
