Flats Fishing In Sanibel / Captiva????

[chicagoboynow]

Hi Everyone,

I lived in Tallahassee until a few years ago, when I moved to Chicago. I used to fish off of St. Marks and miss it horribly!!! We are going to Sanibel/Captiva next week and I am looking for recommendations for flats charters down that way. Does anyone have any recommendations?

By the way, it snowed here this morning.

Thanks!

-Bill

We fished with John this past October right after a cold front. We caught fish and covered a lot of water on a blue bird sky kinda day. He worked HARD to put us on fish, had lots of live bait and definitely earned his tip. I would use him again. John has an older Mako 23-24 with a tarpon tower. Really roomy.

He operates out of Tween Waters so it's convenient if you are on the island.

Thanks guys! Keep the recommendations coming. Some of these folks are already booked. Do you have a last name for John out of Tween Waters?

John Houston. He grew up on the island, knows his stuff.
