Offshore Fishing Charters
Naples & Marco Island Off-shore Fishing Trips
Offshore fishing in Southwest Florida offers exciting action just miles from shore, with opportunities to target grouper, snapper, cobia, permit, kingfish, barracuda, bonita, sharks, and more. Depending on the season and conditions, trips may include nearshore reefs, wrecks, ledges, hard bottom, or deeper Gulf waters 30+ miles offshore.
These trips are a great option for anglers looking for more adventure, bigger water, and a variety of hard-fighting fish. We use a mix of bottom fishing, live baiting, drifting, and trolling depending on what is biting. Some days are focused on snapper and grouper, while others may include trolling or casting for kingfish, cobia, barracuda, bonita, sharks, and other Gulf species.
We fish from a 25’ Pathfinder powered by a 300 Yamaha, giving us a fast, comfortable, and versatile platform for Southwest Florida fishing. When conditions allow, it’s a great boat for offshore and nearshore trips, while still being capable of fishing passes, beaches, and backcountry waters.
For anglers looking beyond a typical inshore trip, our offshore and nearshore fishing charters offer a fun, flexible way to explore the Gulf waters off Naples and Marco Island.
