"Tarpon Season 2025”
Book Now - Spots Are Going Fast.
The Tarpon bite has been off the chain for the last few weeks, and it will only get better as the season heats up. This year is promising to be an incredible Tarpon season here in the Boca Grande area, as the fish come in early to feed, and so many more are still on their way up from down south. If a high-flying, drag-screaming Silver King is on your bucket list, then book a trip and let's get that Tarpon dream checked off.

Shark Fishing
It is also now BIG Shark season here in SW Florida. The Big Bull Sharks (up to 400 pounds) and Hammerheads (in excess of 17 feet) come in to feed on the Tarpon this time of year, making them an easy target for those looking to tussle with a true Apex Predator. If monster sharks are a little too scary for your liking, we also have a ton of smaller sharks that still pull plenty hard but won't break your back. Blacktips, Lemons, Sandbars, Smaller Bulls, Blacknose, and Spinners all put up an incredible fight, but come in a little smaller package (30 to 100 pounds). You can take your pick, and no matter which size you choose to target, I guarantee you will not be disappointed. Shark fishing is not only fun, it is something you will talk about for years to come.

“Inshore / Nearshore Fishing”
Spring is the best time of year for inshore/nearshore fishing here in SW Florida. On the inshore side, Snook, Trout & Redfish are on fire. There are plenty of Snook and Redfish under the bushes, and Trout are all over just about every grass flat that Boca Grande / Charlotte Harbor has to offer. Live baits like shrimp and pilchards are the baits of choice on most trips, but artificial baits can make the fishing even more exciting.
On the nearshore side of fishing, Barracuda, Permit, Cobia, and Mackerel are the main targets for the waters of the Gulf of America this time of year. All of these fish are not only a blast to catch, they are also great on a plate. If you’re looking for a relaxing day of bending the rod on some delicious, hard-fighting fish - Book your trip now!
