July is proving to be red hot! Excellent Redfish action inshore and delicious mangrove snapper near shore!
Taking full advantage of the high tides this time of year has paid off for our anglers with steady catches of upper/over slot Redfish waaaaay up under the trees. We had our best luck in mid Pine Island on both the Sanibel Island and Captiva Island sides as well as the Pine Island side of the sound. Calm summer mornings have given us smooth seas to the nearshore snapper grounds where we have been rewarded with some slob Mangrove snappers! Not only a blast on light tackle but probably one of the best tasting fish in the Gulf! Snook continues to keep us busy along the Cape Coral and Fort Myers shorelines. Catch and release only for them this time of year but the fight is still a blast for first timers! Give us a call today and see for yourself why we are ranked the best fishing charters in Cape Coral, Florida. Not into fishing? No problem! We also offer eco tours, dolphin excursions, shelling trips and waterfront dining transpiration. Life is good in Cape Coral! Captain Jay

Summer is in full swing and that means families catching fish!!!
We had a nice run with some good quality fish the last couple of weeks. The higher tides around the moon have provided plenty of area to cover for some steady Snook action. Double hook ups became a common theme on Snook last two weeks and while no monsters were raised, plenty of fun to be had! We found decent schools of slot Redfish with the high tides as well. Fresh cut finger mullet was the ticket for us this last week. We had good luck in the Pineland area with that afternoon high tide. Plenty of summer sun left to enjoy this year.

Snook continue to provide the best action this summer with good numbers of upper slot fish being landed along the passes and creeks of Sanibel Island and Captiva Island. The intense fresh water from last weeks rain event has pushed the river Snook out from Cape Coral and Fort Myers shorelines and into the higher levels of salinity found in the northern area of Pine Island Sound. Weather appears to be settling into a normal summer pattern now and that means beautiful clear mornings that are fantastic for some fishing and sight seeing.

Captain Jay The inshore bite in May was phenomenal and June is not disappointing!
What a great week we had to finish the month! The Snook bite was some of the best we’ve had in years. We had double hook ups of slot fish on every trip the last 2 weeks! The best bite came on the afternoon high tides along the river shoreline of Cape Coral and Fort Myers. We also found some decent fish near the passes between Sanibel and Captiva Islands in the early morning hours. Big mangrove snappers are showing up as expected during the summer. We found some very nice mangs along the deeper cuts of Pine Island Sound as well as Matlacha pass. Some near shore structures also provided nice fish on the calmer days. Shrimp and small shiners were the go to baits! Come experience some of the most amazing sunrises and sunsets while catching trophy fish for you and your family.

Warm weather has the fish on the move and hungry!
Snook action has been nothing short of fantastic the last few weeks. Big fish are chewing early in the morning along the passes of Sanibel and Captiva Island. The shorelines along Fort Myers and Cape Coral are also providing great linesider action. Mostly with the afternoon high tides. Top water baits and live shiners worked best for us lately. Snook aren’t the only fish keeping our anglers busy. We’ve been on a nice school of upper slot Redfish in the late afternoon along Matlacha Pass. Cut bait has been working the best for us way under the trees. Our summer mornings are hard to beat here in beautiful southwest Florida. Call captain Jay today and book your custom charter.

Captain Jay Cape Coral, Fort Myers, Sanibel Island, Captiva Island, Matlacha and Pine Island Fishing Report4/23/2024 The April bite is going strong with steady action all over southwest Florida!
With the availability of good bait comes great Snook action! We found schools of hungry fish along the cuts and passes of Sanibel and Captiva Islands. Water has been very clear up that way so lighter leader did the trick for us on the lower tides. The darker waters of the Caloosahatchee has been a bit more forgiving. Especially along the deep cuts around Fort Myers. Some very nice Redfish are giving our guests some great action on light tackle! Got on some nice reds along the Cape Coral shoreline. Cut bait on the high tides was certainly the winning ticket this last week. This incredible action should continue on into May.

Been busy last couple of weeks with fish of all sizes and variety. When fishing with kids, it’s all about the action! We found lots of Snook, Redfish and Trout of all sizes to keep lines tight for hours. Fishing has been great all along Pine Island Sound from Sanibel Island to north Captiva Island. Spent lots of time on the Caloosahatchee River that also produced some great shark action for the kids. Bite was great along the Cape Coral and Fort Myers shorelines.

Looks like the cold winter temps may be done in our area with some rapid warming water getting the fish fired up! Lost count on how many Snook we caught this week. We found Snook of all sizes from the shorelines of Sanibel Island to Captiva Pass. Lots of upper slot Snook were hungry on the high incoming tides along Cape Coral and Fort Myers shorelines.
