Fort Myers Beach inshore waters are influenced by tidal movements from the Gulf of Mexico, creating prime feeding opportunities during moving water. The best fishing typically occurs during the two hours before and after tide changes, when baitfish are most active and gamefish move into feeding positions. Water depths range from 2 to 8 feet in most fishing areas, making sight fishing possible on clear days. Wind conditions can affect fishing success, with calmer mornings often producing the best results before afternoon sea breezes pick up.
Our fishing charters include a fully equipped boat with all necessary safety equipment, fishing rods, reels, tackle, and fresh bait. Captain Kevin provides instruction on local techniques, fish identification, and proper handling for both novice and experienced anglers. Trips typically start early morning to take advantage of prime fishing conditions and cooler temperatures. Bring sunscreen, polarized sunglasses, snacks, and drinks for your comfort on the water. All required fishing licenses are the responsibility of individual anglers and can be purchased online before your trip.
