Naples Florida fishing charter guide service

Beach Snook!  After a pretty good winter of Bass fishing, but an extremely slow winter of Tamiami Trail Tarpon fishing, it is now time to go fish the beach again.  The Snook showed up on the gulf beaches about 2 weeks ago, and the bite has been "decent" since then.  We have had windy conditions, but it has stayed mainly from the east which has been great for keeping the water calm and clear.  Numbers for this early in the season are quite good and will only get better as summer rolls in.  My first guide trip of the beach season was April 7th with Ian and his son, 10 year old William, from the UK.   Ian had only caught 1 fish in his life on a flyrod, and thankfully this day brought perfect conditions and some willing fish.  He wound up going 3 for 5 on Snook, all between 20 and 25 inches.  Definitely cool, and one of my most enjoyable guide trip!  I am hoping to receive the pics anyday now.  A few trips since then have all produced a few Snook...a nice start to the season!
