Naples Inshore and Offshore Fishing Report by Capt. Wes Bedell

Cooler water, lots of cold fronts with wind and rain. We are still getting it done! With water temp in the low 60s this week, the fishing still remains very solid. We have been catching good amounts of great table fair. Sheephead, black drum, snapper, have all been staples this week. We have been fishing anywhere from the  wrecks up to 5 miles and every nook and cranny in the back country has been supplying these fish for our clients.

Looks like this weather remains the same for the next few weeks. That’s OK, we don’t mind it. We love to offer these different fishing tactics to our clients that we don’t normally do year-round. 

So if you’re looking to bring the family out for some great excitement. Lots of action. Not really any monsters this time of the year, that’s OK, the dinners and action make up for it! Looking to hear from all of you for upcoming fishing trips. Please contact anyone of our captains for a trip of a lifetime.

Thank you,
Captain Wes

With the beginning of the year brings cold fronts, wind, rain, but we always have something and somewhere to go. With all these elements, the fishing slows way down. The fish are lethargic and or not very aggressive. They want to eat slow and shrimp is on the menu. The sheephead have been the staple for these cooler months. They love shrimp, they eat very slow and they are great table fair.

These fish are basically everywhere. Any kind of rock pile. Dock or even deep cuts in the back country. Even seen them up on the flats with the redfish and snook! 

The Offshore fishing is very difficult to reach for us this time of the year. That’s why we have been concentrating on the wrecks and reefs within the 5 mile range of Naples. We are in the process of building our new offshore boat. Which will accommodate clients from 6 to 8 passengers that should be in the water by early summer. Also will be able to navigate the waters that we have around here this time of year a lot better. 

Our calendars are very busy. There is a lot of people in town, we are getting booked up for Permit and Tarpon and Season already. If you would like to book anything for 2021 please reach out to anyone of our captains.

Thank you,
Captains Bedell

The winter fishing is in full effect. Artificial’s & live shrimp have been working so good, the fish are starving and not going to turn down a meal.

Redfish, black drum, sheephead, trout have been the norm this week. There has still been some triple tail around the numbers are dwindling a little bit but there still are some big fish around. We are looking forward to warming up & the arrival of an early spring. We still have some availability left in late January and February, please feel free to contact us about your groups fishing trip.

The On a Mission crew had a nice little break in the weather. Few days after a blistering cold front we were able to hit some of the artificial wrecks just outside Naples. These wreck are 2-5 miles from land. A very short ride. Lots of mixed bad spices. Like the Goliath Grouper, sheepshead, Spanish Mackerel, mangrove snapper and Gag Grouper. Could even have a Cobia swim through. We are ALWAYS looking for the Tripletail too!!! 

When these cold fronts roll thru. We have Plan B in the backcountry. The back also supplies a nice mixed bag this time of the year. It’s usually a lot calmer in the back, and a lot of our clients prefer this. Lots of mixed bag species in the back, lots of things to do, lots of good table fare as well. 

Our calendars are pretty packed for this week. We do have some room into next week and into 2021. Wishing everyone a happy and safe new year and looking forward to getting you all on the water in this new year! 

Thank you, Captain Wes

The fishing in Naples, Florida still remain solid. We’ve had a couple consecutive back to back cold fronts and the water temperatures have been cooler which leaves more options and great fishing. 

Offshore fishing for Naples: when the weather permits. We’ve been catching Bonita, Tripletail, Kingfish and Spanish mackerel, there’s been some Cobia around and mangrove snapper on the wrecks. 

Back country fishing for Naples: with the cooler waters we have been using shrimp and pilchards for bait hitting structures like docks, rock piles and other forms of structures to catch a variety of species. From sheephead and black drum. Also Trout, Redfish, snapper and Snook. 

Our calendars for the Christmas and New Year’s Eve break are filling up very rapidly. Please reach out to anyone of our captains so we can get you and your family on the water this holiday season!

The inshore & offshore fishing in Naples, Florida remains solid. We have had a few small cold fronts come threw our area that has dropped the water temperatures and fired up the game fish.

With these temperatures dropping, some of our fishing has converted to shrimp & artificial. These methods have become a go to when the water drops into the 60s. With that said, come Sheephead, Blackdrum, Trout, Snapper, Tripletail, also been catching lots of nice Redfish & Snook as well. 

Our calendar is filling up fast for the Holiday Season & into 2021 Tarpon & Permit Season with our brand new 30ft Morgan to hit the On a Mission fleet! 

Hope to see you soon, 
Thanks Captain Wes

Thanksgiving has been week of the Sea Monsters! Great family time, all of these were team efforts. No shame in this game, if you need to hand it off. On a mission were sight casting all of these Bulls. Even had a 10 ft Tiger-shark eat at the boat. Very crazy! Nat-Geo stuff!

Along with these, are truckloads of Bonita’s and Spanish Mackerel. Even some cudas to fill the gaps. Even a few Tripletail to hunt as well! 

If the offshore is not your thing. The inshore and backcountry have been on fire as well! Big Snook and Redfish are around every bend. Jacks, trout, snapper also in the mix.

We have mutual boats & captains to suit every style of fisherman and angler. Please feel free to reach out to anyone of our captains and we are looking forward to getting you on the water!

On a Mission is gearing up for a great Thanksgiving week. The fishing in Naples Florida has been very special lately. Everything that swims is here and fattening up for winter. 

Offshore fishing: The inshore to offshore waters have been producing lots of gamefish. From Kingfish & Bonita’s to the great tasting Tripletail. Lots of fun size Sharks if you want to pull on something stronger. 

Backcountry fishing: The back has been of fire lately. Lots of big Snook & Redfish jus about everywhere. Lots of big Jacks to fill the gaps. 

We still have some room in our schedule this week to take some last-minute parties. We have a few afternoons open please don’t hesitate to book these charters immediately, they will go fast. Wishing everybody a Happy & safe  Thanksgiving, we will see you on the water.

Fall fishing is about as good as it can be. Beautiful weather, and fish everywhere!

Offshore fishing. Lots of gamefish in very close. Tarpon, Kingfish, Bonita’s, a variety of fun size sharks. Also the Tripletail. Amazing table fare, awesome sight fishing opportunities.

Backcountry fishing. All of the usual suspects are here. Snook, Redfish, Jack’s and even some micro Tarpon. The water has been clean, and the fish are chewing! 

We are getting booked for thanksgiving but have 2 boats in our fleet, and can accommodate large parties split on both boats. Or can bring another captain for larger parties. Looking forward to getting you out on the water soon. 

Thanks,
Captain Wes

Well here we are again with yet with another hurricane in the Gulf of Mexico. 

We really don’t mind, it just shuts the fishing along the beach and inshore  down a little bit. The fishing in the back remains solid. Big snook lots of reds, & jacks around every corner, always something to pull on. Even some juvenile Tarpon. 

With the departure of tropical disturbance ETA. Fishing along the beach should go right back to normal. Tarpon sharks Bonita kingfish and triple tail will all be up for grabs. Our books are filling up completely for Thanksgiving we still have some half days available for that week so please if you and your family would like to get on the water with us please book accordingly! 

So we will see you on the water, happy holidays & tight lines!
