Naples and Marco Island Backcountry Fishing Report

Naples and Marco island backcountry/inshore fishing  lends it’s self to an area called the 10,000 islands. This maze of islands offers some of the best fishing & most diverse eco systems in the world.  This past week the redfish and snook fishing has been stellar with big numbers of fish coming to the boat every morning .  Live bait is always the ticket in getting these big fishing to pounce on the line.  When getting live bait on the offshore wrecks it’s important to have the right size net and I prefer a 12ft 3/8in mesh very heavy net.   This takes allot of practice learning your bottom machine & will insure you land on the bait and not the wreck.   Look for big snook to be around the inshore passes were structure and current are present . Free line a pilchard up tight to the trees and Hold On !!!!!  C u on the water .
