Captiva Fishing Report: Captiva Island Fishing Charters, Wednesday, July 4: Redfish & Sharks, Captain Joe’s Charters; water quality okay in spots near Sanibel & Captiva, but red tide and Caloosahatchee freshwater releases problematic; there is red tide impact right now offshore of Boca Grande Pass – big snook fish kills on Boca Grande beaches; also killing baitfish; having a hard time finding and catching baitfish; a lot of good Snook, (away from Boca Grande), Seatrout, Tarpon, Grouper, Spanish Mackerel fishing currently, but need live baitfish and they are not around in the last couple of days.

Caught a nice Redfish earlier in the week but, they have been tougher and less prevalent; for more information just use the menu for recent fishing reports, background on any species, and other recent fishing, water quality reports, and information. We’re located at Castaways Marina, Santiva, Sanibel Island, just before the Blind Pass bridge to Captiva Island.

Wednesday, July 4, Sanibel Island Fishing Charters & Sanibel Island Fishing Charters: Blacktip & Lemon Sharks, Catch & Release.  Please also visit the Sanibel, Fort Myers, Florida Fishing Report and Cuban Fishing sites.  Better water moving north of Sanibel up through Captiva & North Captiva.

We’re big advocates of catch and release, particularly for snook, but pretty much for most species.  Only take what you are going to eat, and a lot of fish are better off as sportfish, even if they are in season.  Our motto is let ‘em get bigger and catch ‘em again!
