Late summer and fall are some of my favorite times of the year for Naples fishing and Marco Island fishing.

The fishing remains excellent throughout Southwest Florida, and this time of year brings a great mix of species and different ways to fish.

There is also noticeably less boat traffic, which makes a day exploring the mangrove creeks, backcountry bays, passes, and beaches even more enjoyable.

Our Naples and Marco Island charters fish the waters around Naples, Marco Island, Rookery Bay, the Ten Thousand Islands, and the Everglades.

On any given trip we may catch snook, redfish, mangrove snapper, speckled trout, pompano, black drum, jack crevalle, Spanish mackerel, sharks, and even a late season tarpon.

Give me a call or text to book a trip or talk fishing.

I love fishing Southwest Florida in July. The boat traffic is light, the Gulf is often calm and beautiful!

Snook are especially abundant right now and can be found along the beaches, around the passes and throughout the nearby bays. We have been catching them on fly, artificial lures and live bait. The largest snook of the past week was a beautiful 32-inch fish.

Redfish have not been quite as numerous, but we landed an impressive 31-inch oversized red the other day. We do not catch many redfish over 30 inches, so this one was a real trophy and an exciting surprise.

Fishing is outstanding in Naples & Marco Island in July!!

July is one of the best times of the year to book a Naples fishing charter or Marco Island fishing charter, with consistent action and an wide variety of fish available throughout Southwest Florida.

While many anglers think the excitement ends when peak tarpon season winds down, experienced local captains know that's when Southwest Florida's incredible variety really shines. July offers outstanding opportunities to catch multiple species in a single trip, making it one of my favorite months to guide families, experienced anglers, and first-time fishermen alike.

One of the best parts about July is the incredible variety of species available. On many trips, it's common to catch six to ten different species before returning to the dock.

Peak tarpon fishing season in Naples and Marco Island continues, with the silver kings migrating along the beaches, cruising the passes, and staging in the backcountry bays. This is the best time of year to experience the thrill of battling a 100-pound-plus tarpon on light tackle.

In addition to world-class tarpon fishing, anglers are also catching snook along the beaches, along with redfish, mangrove snapper, Spanish mackerel, sharks, and other exciting inshore species throughout the Naples, Marco Island, and Ten Thousand Islands area.

June is one of the most exciting months of the year for anglers fishing the waters around Naples, Marco Island, the Ten Thousand Islands, and Everglades National Park!!

Tarpon season is now in full swing across Southwest Florida, and the annual migration of the “silver kings” continues along the beaches of Naples and Marco Island just as expected this time of year.

Tarpon fishing in Naples and Marco Island is one of the biggest attractions in Southwest Florida during late spring and early summer. As water temperatures continue to rise through May and June, more migrating tarpon move along the beaches, through the passes, and into the backcountry bays, giving anglers excellent opportunities to hook into these powerful gamefish.

Fishing over the past week has been very productive, with consistent tarpon action along the beaches as well as in several deeper backcountry areas. Along the beaches, live medium-sized crabs and live pinfish have been the top producers. In the backcountry bays, cut bait has been working best, especially when targeting larger tarpon holding deeper in the water column.
