About
Learn the basics of fishing in the extensive network of bays, Mangrove Islands and tidal creeks that permeate the Region.
There are thousands of miles of shoreline, countless oyster bars and acres of seagrass beds that attract an abundance of saltwater fish. In these waters are four of the state's most sought after gamefish... Snook, Redfish, Spotted Sea Trout, and Tarpon.
Thousands of anglers come to Southwest Florida each year for the chance at a Grand Slam, catching one individual of each species in ONE day.
Perhaps the most significant factor contributing to the region's excellent fishing reputation is the vast track of fresh and saltwater wetlands protected by State and/or federal laws.
We are proud to be the only company in Marco Island with TripAdvisor's ""Hall of Fame"" title... that's 7 years of ""Certificate of Excellence!!
