We booked a 3 hr inshore charter with Capt. Matt out of Marco Island/Goodland area, and it was one of the best fishing trips we’ve had in Southwest Florida. Born and raised in these waters, he knows every spot in the back bays and mangroves like the back of his hand. The action was steady right from the start—he put us on fish consistently, gave great tips, and was super patient and fun to fish with. The boat was clean, well-equipped, and comfortable. Highly recommend Capt. Matt.  We’ll... More

Capt Matthew was an awesome guide, baited our hooks fixed our lines and put us on some fish, really can’t ask for much more than that. All around great experience if you’re looking for a reasonably priced guide with a good attitude. He was very knowledgeable of the water and had waters on board as well. Would definitely recommend and book again.

Me and my family had a great day of fishing with Captain Matt. We caught the usual suspects of sea trout and jacks but also a few surprises including a flounder and stingray. The highlight of the day however was several large sharks! Each my kids landed a shark (3 total) and they couldn’t have been more excited.  We also lost another big shark but the excitement was the same regardless. Thanks Matt for another great day of fishing. We hope to be back in Marko Island to fish with you again one... More

I had a great time with Captain Matt. He is friendly, conscientious, easy going, and works hard to find the fish. It was a beautiful day to fish with calm waters. Here is a list of different species of fish we caught…flounder, puffer fish, ladyfish, snapper, sheepshead, sting ray and sea trout. That’s quite an array! Matt has lived in Goodland all his life and knows the surrounding waters well. I highly recommend that you choose Matt as a guide for a fun fishing trip.
