Captain Jack’s Fishing Charter’s mission is to create the memory of a lifetime on every trip.

Capt. Jack has been fishing the waters of Southwest Florida since he was a toddler and was fortunate to have a father and grandfather (who first moved to Fort Myers in 1956) pass on their fishing knowledge to him. All ages and skill levels are welcomed aboard, from rookies to hardcore anglers, Capt. Jack can cater a trip to your needs.

Capt. Jack pilots a beautiful, 23’ vessel (rebuilt in 2018 and powered by a 2020 250HP Yamaha outboard motor) that can handle rough days and get into shallow fishing holes making it perfect for plying the waters of Southwest Florida. Its T-top gives plenty of shade from Florida’s sun complete with a tower and second station. An extra-wide beam and clutter-free deck give his clients plenty of room to move around, fight fish or lay back & relax. With a brand new Minn Kota trolling motor, massive bait-well, state-of-the-art GPS/SONAR, Bluetooth sound system, and more to help our clients increase their chances of landing fish as comfortably as possible.

You’ll target a bunch of different fish species, depending on the season and current fishing conditions. Some of the most popular catches are Redfish, Snook, Trout, Tarpon, Mackerel, Snapper, and Sheepshead. You can take a picture then let the fish go or keep the catch for dinner! The captain will clean/bag it for you at the end of the trip. Bring your fillets to a local restaurant for a hassle-free dinner!

Fishing is not the only way to enjoy these waters! Capt. Jack also combines fishing with eco-tours, shelling trips, and sunset cruises. Enjoy the isolated beaches of North Captiva and Cayo Costa State Park, picking up shells the majority can’t reach. Watch beautiful birds, dolphins, and manatees play in their natural habitat instead of an aquarium.

1/2 Day Eco-Tour/Fishing Trip (PM)
Our originally planned trip with our usual Captain had to be cancelled due to his being taken ill. We were fortunate that Captain Jack could squeeze us in for a Morning fishing trip. I am a local and my son-in-law had come all the way from Idaho so I was scrambling to keep the day fishing trip for him. Captain Jack was great in accommodating our needs and the trip and he were just great. As a bonus…the fishing he put us into was even better! Had great luck with Snook and Gag Grouper, even catching a 35” Snook. All around a very positive experience and I/we look forward to fishing with Captain Jack again.

Half Day Trip – Inshore (AM)
My wife, two boys, 10 and 15, met Jack who had finalized the details and meeting time the day before. He had asked us what we were interested in targeting and shared what would likely be biting best this time of year, Snook and Mangrove Snapper. We headed out and once we arrived at the first location, we had our first Snook in the boat within moments, 34 in, 17 lbs. According to Jack this is larger than average and said it was a very nice fish for my 15 year old to land. My 10 year old then caught a 25 in Snook. During that time we had some unexpected visitors…several dolphin decided to get in on the fishing! While not good for fishing what an awesome up close experience none of us will ever forgot, they were within inches of the side of the boat. We then moved on as my 10 year old wanted to try some shark fishing. We chummed but never caught anything than a bothersome duck! We ended our day fishing for Snapper, which we caught enough to eat for dinner at a local restaurant Jack recommended. He prepared the fish and put them in a bag with some ice. What a great day, would highly recommend. He was patient and willing to do whatever he could do to make the trip positive.

1/2 Day Eco-Tour/Fishing Trip (AM)
Jack was great! Me and my Best friend talked about how he was chill and we liked it…. We didn’t feel we had to keep a conversation going. He just let it be natural and it made it the experience we were looking for. Just out in the sun relaxing and fishing. We ended up getting a 7 foot maybe larger nurse shark… It was not easy either. He kept snatching our bait but we ended up winning in the end. Jack cut and changed the size of the bait so it was easier to set the hook after he Bit it and boom! We landed him! 100% would recommend to anyone interested! When I come back down I will be texting Jack so we can do it again. Great chill guy who knew where to go. Was a truly great experience… My roommate and other guy on the Boat with us totally agrees. THANKS JACK! -Johnathan & Matt
