SEASONAL FISHING NOTES
Plan with the season. Check with the captain.
The fishing changes with weather, water conditions and fish movement. For a current report and advice for your exact dates, call Capt. Andy at 941-769-1582.
These seasonal notes draw on the charter information and fishing history from the original Fort Myers Florida Fishing website. They are planning information, not dated reports of recent catches.
