Capt Matt Mitchell-Fishing Charters

2023 Post Hurricane Ian update

Over the past few months the drop in business has made for a tough year. Usually this time of year we are in wide open season and fishing guides are fully booked. Many of my regular clients simply have no accommodations available. I’m experiencing at least a 50% drop in business while many other guides with no place to pick up clients are totally out of business. If your thinking about taking a charter unlike years past I still have openings and would greatly appreciate the business. The water is amazingly clear and the lack of boats on the water puts very little pressure on the fish making for a great time to get out. 

Let me share my more than 30 years of local knowledge on Pine Island sound with you.  I spend 300 days plus a year on the water and specialize in light tackle live bait sport fishing for Snook, redfish, trout, tarpon and sharks.

Come and enjoy some of Florida's best sport fishing or let me take you on a shelling trip, dolphin watching or on a Eco tour. I serve all of the area: Ft. Myers, Ft Myers beach, Cape Coral, Pine Island, Sanibel and Captiva with a pick up location available close to you..
