Naples Fishing Report by On a Mission Fishing Charters

This years Easters' break was nothing short of spectacular! The big Snook are everywhere and chewing. With the water staying on the mid 70s all the game fish are here and very happy. These fish are eating everything in sight. From pilchards to cut bait, also artificial’s and flies. This fishing will only get better until the spawn in May! Also, the Tarpon have been moving thru the area as well. We put a few fish in the air last week in the 150 class. A few shots at some beach fish and lots of fish heading north, more on the way.

The offshore fish has been amazing when you can make it out there. Crazy March winds have carried into April. Even had a Easter cold front that pushed things back to January for a few days. Hopefully winds lay down for April. Lots of Permit trips on the way!

This season has been off to a crazy busy start. Seems all this pent up demand for fishing charters has gone through the roof. We get 15-20 calls and emails, everyday for openings tomorrow. Please, please don’t wait. These days available are in high demand, and won’t last long. If you’ve been in search for that “bucket list fish” nows the time to check that off!! 

Good luck out there. Stay safe! Hope to see you on the water.
