Everglades Wreck Fishing Charter

Highlights

Description

Feel the boat rise over gentle Gulf swells as the morning sun glints across endless blue water. Your captain navigates to legendary wrecks and reefs up to nine miles offshore, where cobia, grouper, and permit gather in abundance. Cast your line into the deep and feel the pull of powerful fish beneath the surface. Between battles, share stories on deck, spot seabirds overhead, and enjoy the quiet rhythm of open-water fishing. This 3/4-day charter balances adventure with comfort, offering six hours of guided angling for up to four guests. All bait, tackle, rods, reels, and licenses are provided, along with a cooler stocked with ice and water. Whether chasing your first offshore catch or honing your technique on a return visit, this trip combines expert instruction with the raw excitement of Gulf sport fishing. Return to Everglades City with photos, fresh stories, and a well-earned sense of accomplishment.
