Boat Refitting, April 15, Sanibel & Captiva Islands & Fort Myers Charters & Fishing Guide Service.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The good news is we had a great winter fishing season with tremendous weather, with the exception of several brief cold fronts in March. \u00a0 We were\/are out on charters almost every day, most of the time with 2-3 trips a day.<\/p>\n

There really is no bad news when you have this type of good weather and fishing … but it means the boat has been worked hard and needs some refitting and refurbishing, including the hull, the engine and all the other aspects.<\/p>\n

This is what we have been working on the last ten days or so while using a backup boat on the water.<\/p>\n

We think we will have the main boat completely refitted in the next week or so!<\/p>\n

Please call 239-472-8658 or email\u00a0captjoefred@gmail to book a Sanibel & Captiva Islands or Fort Myers fishing guide trip \u2013 or we can head up to North Captiva or Cayo Costa Islands for a shelling charter!<\/p>\n

We’re located at Castaways Marina, Santiva, Sanibel Island, just before the Blind Pass bridge to Captiva Island.<\/p>\n

Whether you’re a longtime customer who has fished with us for many years or a first-time customer, expert fisherman or just a family with young children out to catch fish and have fun, you are going to enjoy being out in the boat with Hank and me!\u00a0 We greatly appreciate your friendship and business!!!<\/p>\n

If you had a good time fishing with Hank and me on a Sanibel & Captiva fishing charter, please post an \u201cexcellent\u201d review on\u00a0Google Places Reviews<\/a>.\u00a0 Huge thanks for doing this!<\/p>\n

Fair winds and following seas,<\/p>\n
