Take part in one of the most versatile fishing charter excursions on the beautiful waters of southwest Florida! Based out of Punta Gorda, Fast Cast Fishing will take you on a fishing adventure you will cherish forever! The scenery here is second to none. You don’t need to look any further for an enjoyable fishing trip that will let you target whichever inshore or nearshore fish you like.

Captain Luis Silva will be leading the way on your fishing charter journey in search of your prize catch. Capt. Luis has over 10 years of experience fishing the Gulf coast from Sarasota Bay to Fort Myers Beach. Capt. Luis will cater to anglers of all skill level. He loves to see his passengers smiling when they reel in a big game catch. He is very accommodating and will tailor the trip to fit your needs.

Your fishing charter trip with Capt. Luis will start in Punta Gorda and can go on to explore the fishing grounds near Port Charlotte, Matlacha, Fort Myers, Cape Coral, El Jobean, Cleveland, Solana, Charlotte Harbor, and many other awe-inspiring locations around southwest Florida in the Gulf of Mexico.

You will be fishing aboard a 25 ft Pathfinder center console boat that is powered by a 300 HP Yamaha engine. She can fit up to 4 guests and have them fishing at the same time. This vessel features state-of-the-art Simrad electronics, as well as a Minn Kota trolling motor and a Powerpole shallow water anchoring system. This boat is designed to put you on the fish. It will also offer you a comfortable ride, with plenty of storage and fold-out seating for the journey to and from the fishing spots.

Choose whether you’d rather stay inshore, travel out into the open waters nearshore, or target the ultimate Floridian inshore sportfish – the Silver King. Whichever trip you go for, you will be provided with the latest Shimano fishing equipment and all the bait and lures you will need for your trip. We will clean and prepare your catches after the trip and don’t forget to ask captain Luis about the best restaurants in town that will cook your catch.

With potential target fish ranging from shallow water hunters such as Redfish and Snook to reef species like delicious Snappers, Groupers, and Amberjack, you will be in with a good chance of hooking some dinner!

Join Fast Cast fishing and Captain Luis Silva on a Punta Gorda fishing charter trip for the ages. We look forward to seeing you soon!

Inshore Fishing (4 Hour)
We have been out with many captains over the years. Capt Lou definitely has the nicest equipment. We met at the public landing in Placida where he quickly picked us up. We headed out to our first location. With in minutes of throwing the bait in the water my youngest had his first shark on the line. After a short battle she broke off at the boat. My son said he saw the leader so it counted. His first “real” shark is in the books. Lou repositioned the boat and we threw two more baits in the water. Minutes later fishon. This time it was my oldest’s turn he made short work of this Sand Bar Shark. The big fish was brought to the side of the boat. Pictures were taken and now there were smiles all the way around. Another 1st “real” shark. Lou once again maneuvered the boat around to cast bait last back out. My youngest quickly hooked up, but lost it soon after. By this time the location is getting crowded we watched a couple others hook up, and slowly move out of the way. Lou again put the boys into position to cast. The boys casted their baits with in minutes they both had sharks on the line. The oldest boy secured the fighting stool and my youngest and myself took to fighting the other fish. We moved around the boat trying to keep from fouling the lines, while Lou also moved the boat around trying to do the same. After 45 minutes and several trips around the boat and under the other rod we got the big bull up to the boat leadered and he was gone. Mean while the fight was still on in the front. After another 30 minutes or so the he got the big Sand Bar up to the boat. More pictures and smiles. With about an hour left the boys were tired and wanted something smaller. We headed to a reef where the jack crevalle were hungry almost every cast was a fish. We also caught two nice Permits. Lou is a great Captain and I would highly recommend giving him a shot. Thanks again

Capt Lou was a great Captain to go out fishing with. Really cool guy. His boat is new and he knows what he’s doing out there. First cast of the day we hooked up a 120 lb Tarpon! Was an amazing experience. Later in the day we caught some snappers a little farther out. Overall a an amazing trip and plan to come back and fish with Captain Lou again!!
