Everglades Fishing Charter & 10,000 Islands Tours

The Everglades and 10,000 Islands are some of the most untouched fishing grounds left in America, and Adventures By Steezy runs private charters into the heart of them. This is a maze of mangrove islands, oyster bars, hidden creeks, and crystal flats that stretches for miles with no docks, no crowds, and no cell service, just you, the boat, and water that looks the same as it did a hundred years ago.

The fishing back here is wild and world-class. We work the points, creek mouths, and oyster bars for snook, redfish, and sea trout, chase baby tarpon rolling in the rivers, and find jacks, snapper, and sheepshead around the structure. It's sight-fishing, structure-fishing, and run-and-gun all in one trip, and because almost nobody fishes this water, the fish are aggressive and the days are unpredictable in the best way.

Getting in here is the hard part, and that's the point. The backcountry around Chokoloskee, the Wilderness Waterway, and Lostmans River is a genuine labyrinth, easy to get lost in and impossible to fish without local knowledge. I run custom-built, shallow-draft boats that slip into skinny water and tuck behind islands the bigger boats can't reach, so the spots we fish are ones you'd never find on your own.

For the people who really want to disappear, the Everglades and 10,000 Islands are where the multi-day Epic Excursions live, and they're our specialty. Two to five days out in the backcountry, fishing remote water by day and sleeping on the boat or a remote island by night, mothership-style. No day-charter can reach what we reach on these trips, and every one is custom-built around your crew.

Day trips out here are private, your group only, up to six guests, with all rods, bait, ice, and licenses included. Multi-day Epic Excursions are custom-quoted based on route, group size, and how many days you want to be gone. Either way, you bring food and a sense of adventure and I handle the rest, including knowing exactly where we are when the GPS gets confused.

This is the trip for the angler who's done the easy stuff and wants the real thing, or the group that wants a story no one else has. It's remote, it's raw, and it's some of the best fishing and exploring anywhere in Florida.
