Freshwater fishing takes place in lakes, rivers, and canals rather than the ocean. It’s ideal for catching species like Largemouth Bass, Peacock Bass, Bluegill, and Catfish, all found in the Fort Myers and Cape Coral areas.
You can fish year-round, but spring and fall bring the most action for bass. Cooler water temps in these months make fish more active and easier to catch.
Common catches include Largemouth Bass, Peacock Bass, Gar, Catfish, Bluegill, and Carp. Each trip is customized based on the season and your preferred fishing style.
Rates start at $550 for 4 hours, $750 for 6 hours, and $950 for 8 hours, covering up to three guests. Add a fourth angler for $100, or extend your trip for $125/hour – all gear, bait, and licenses included.
We use a mix of live bait (like shiners and worms) and artificial lures depending on target species. Captain Erik will choose the best option for success on the day of your trip.
