FORT MYERS BEACH FISHING GUIDES, FISHING CHARTERS & SHELLING EXCURSIONS

SNOOK FISHING
Snook are plentiful in the back bays and on the flats of Fort Myers and the Sanibel area of Florida's Gulf Coast. Snook can be picky at times making it lots easier to go Snook "fishing" than it is to go Snook "catching".  Our clients always comment on how hard a snook strikes. They create a huge boil on the surface and an unmistakable "popping" sound. Snook are known to be challenging, unpredictable, and stubborn which is why I think they appeal to so many anglers. 

TARPON FISHING CHARTERS
Hooking a Tarpon regardless of size is the thrill of a lifetime for most anglers.  Combine incredible jumps with a mouth of bone and you get a fish famous for jumping off.  Join Captain Wes for an exciting Tarpon trip fishing the waters of Sanibel and Ft. myers for a chance to hook up with the Silver King. Tarpon charters are fished late spring through summer.  We offer a 6 or 8 hour package with up to 4 passengers. ( Seasonal Charter )

REDFISH CHARTER
Redfish are among a group of popular game fish sought after while fishing with a local guide here in Fort Myers and Sanibel Island.  In fact, we have clients who wish to only target Redfish.  This species is found in our local water ways year round but they thrive in the fall when they are spawning.  When you combine powerful runs with great table fare; It's a win win situation.

SHARK FISHING CHARTER
Regardless of their reputation sharks are a great game fish and Fort Myers has plenty of the big ones!  They are fun to catch, ready biters, and they fight like crazy!  Black Tip, Sandbar, Lemon and Bull shark are among the different species of shark you may catch while out with your fishing guide. Shark are here year round but we only target them late spring through summer, during the Tarpon migration. ( Seasonal Charter)

JOIN US FOR A SANIBEL ISLAND, FISHING CHARTER

Thousands of anglers visit the area to fish Sanibel Island and Fort Myers Beach each year for a chance to hook one of these trophy fish, while in the meantime taking in the nature and beauty that surrounds them.  Join Capt. Wes Skinner, a native Fort Myers fishing guide and start your day off with some back bay, flats fishing.  Then take a break from the action to have lunch at one of Sanibel Island or Fort Myers waterfront restaurants.  How about a shelling Charter to the island of Cayo Costa?  If fishing is not your thing, choose an eco tour and observe the birds, manatees and dolphins while stopping off at the historical Cabbage Key to try one of their famous Cabbage Creepers.  Whether you're an avid angler, new to fishing or just want to see the sights, Captain Wes will make your shelling or Sanibel fishing charter a day to remember!  Listed under our Charters menu is a description of our shelling, eco tours and fishing trips.  We can customize a charter to fit your needs if there's not one described or provide additional boats if needed.
