"NOT JUST ANOTHER BOAT RIDE" Everglades National Park Guided Fishing Adventures
CHOKOLOSKEE FISHING CHARTERS
Area Information
The west gateway to the Everglades National Park is through Everglades City and Chokoloskee Island. Located just 30 minutes from Naples, 90 minutes from Miami, Ft. Myers, Ft. Lauderdale and Boca Raton, it offers some of the best fishing you will ever experience. It has been rated one of the top ten fly fishing locations in the world and it is right in your back yard!!!
The Everglades National Park is vast and richly diverse in fish species. With 1.4 million acres in the Park alone, everglades fishing is very special. In the same fishing charter, it is possible to catch bass in the freshwater, snook in the backcountry, tarpon in the rivers, redfish on the beaches, trout on the flats, as well as, permit and cobia on the near shore structure. It is not uncommon for Chokoloskee Charters anglers to catch 12 or more species of fish during their stay.
The Everglades and the Ten Thousand Islands are a traveling fisherman's ideal destination. How many times have you had your trip hurt by weather? The vast area of protected waters means that weather days are virtually non-existent. There is always sheltered places to fish so you do not have to spend your fishing day cooped up at the fishing lodge or villa. The everglades fly fishing is wonderful for this reason alone. Never, do you have fish in the wind all day!! Though a five-day fishing package is recommended, a typical three day fishing package should include a morning of snook fishing along the inside islands shorelines followed by sight-fishing redfish and snook on the beaches in the afternoon. A morning of trout fishing on the flats, followed by tarpon fishing laid-up giants in the bights should also be part of your trip. With just one day left you will have some choices to make for your last day ... fly fishing (or spin/plug) tarpon in the rivers, sight fishing 15-25 lb permit, digging grouper, live baiting for giant tarpon in the passes and rivers, catching our "brown marlin" (cobia), fishing the near-shore wrecks. etc. You will have to choose.
Chokoloskee Charters offers complete fishing packages including boats, baits, tackle, guides, meals and fishing villas to make your trip easy, comfortable and rewarding. With the ten thousand island and the everglades fishing so close, why Naples fishing? Miami fishing is good. Everglades fishing is great. Come and experience it.
