The weather this last week was more like July then February. Slicked off conditions, water temperature still remain cool enough to have the gamefish close by.

Acres and acres of threads and pilchards have shown up in our region all on the inshore wrecks. Kingfish Spanish mackerel jacks in a variety of sharks are all right on their trail. It has been straight up king fish rodeos with quality fish coming to the boat.

Phones are still ringing off the hook, please try to get your calls in to enjoy this incredible experience. It’s only going to get better from here!!

Well we finally got blasted with what I will call the first big cold front of the year. Temperatures plummeted in our region, water temps 10° air temperature 20° lows in the 50s last week and some incredibly negative tides put on a redfish extravaganza like it’s supposed to be.

We had incredibly good fishing last week with the cold water. The fish seem to be starving and did not mind artificial or live shrimp. It seems like the warming trend is already back with forecast in the 80s for the next 10 days. I hate to say this but winter feels over already, looks like we’re going to be having an early spring.

Lots of triple tail still around in our area and the snook bite is good as well,  not really any large fish but lots of numbers, big jacks are patrolling everywhere in the back. Offshore has been good as well when you can get out there. Kingfish and cobia have been in the mix but wind conditions will not let us travel there. We will be taking delivery of our new 28 foot Morgan in just a few months and will be able to dominate a little bit further offshore with a lot more consistency.

Our calendars are getting very full for this next month so please give us a call if you have any Charter questions.

Thank you and tight lines,
Captain Wes

Fishing in our region consistently gets better every day. Backcountry fishing has been staying very consistent with all of the usual suspects around. Redfish, snook, juvenile Tarpon and Jack’s of all sizes. If you want something to pull on a little harder, spinner sharks and black tips have been all over the beaches, all sight fishing in Crystal clear water. The Stone crab traps are being set out this week which means tripletail fishing should be incredible in the next few weeks. Our calendars are filling up steadily every day. The snowbirds are on their way down, book your trips as soon as possible.

Thank you,

Feels like we woke up in October in July. Lots of quality Redfish have moved into town and they've been eating everything from live bait to flies. There are also lots of big Snook in the mix with them as well. Our backcountry fishery has been producing some stellar fish these past couple weeks. Bait has been tricky to catch but when you can find some you are guaranteed to catch quality fish. Summertime fishing in Naples, FL is always great!

Lots of quality fish offshore right now. Big jacks, Amberjacks, Cobia, Barracudas and of course Permit as well. Still quality fish inshore we’ve just been taking advantage of the beautiful weather by running offshore. Tarpon, Snook and Redfish are still around off the beach and in the backcountry. Gotta love summertime fishing in Naples, FL.

Every sector of our fishery has been exploding over these past couple weeks. We’ve been presented with consistent stellar weather and it’s been producing amazing fish. Inshore and nearshore there are plenty of Tarpon and Snook while offshore there are massive schools of hungry Permit. There has been no shortage of screaming drags around here! This is the best time to fish in Naples, FL.

Capt. Perry Bedell

Our backcountry fishery continues to produce quality snook and redfish day after day. There has also been a truck load of bonita that have moved in which provide endless drag screaming right off the beach. The permit and Tarpon are here as well we just need clients who want to fish for them. The water is clean, the weather is warm and most importantly the fish are happy and hungry. Spring is an incredible time to fish in Naples, Florida.

Plenty of action offshore and inshore this past week in Naples, FL. There has been no shortage of  Kingfish and Bonita around our nearby wrecks providing nonstop action out there while the usual suspects are still around in the backcountry. Lots of quality Snook, Redfish, and Tarpon to play with. Minor cold front rolling through and then the heat will be back as well as the screaming drags! Hope to hear from you all soon.

We had a minor setback this past week with an unexpected cold front rolling through but the heat is back like it never left and so are the hungry fish. Bait fishing with Pilchards has been working great, lots of Snook, Redfish, Jacks, and juvenile Tarpon in the backcountry. We've also had a couple shots at larger Tarpon off of the beach. The numbers of these fish will only continue to get larger as we progress further into spring. There are also some Tripletail still lingering around the area as well. The weather is stellar here in Naples, FL and so is the fishing. Hope to hear from you soon.

The weather has been warm and the fishing has been amazing. Lots of snook, redfish, and big jacks everywhere in the backcountry right now. On top of this there are still plenty of sheepshead and black drum around for anyone seeking dinner! Lots of options to bend a pole here in Naples, FL.
