Welcome to Madsnookin, please take time to explore my site and read about the wonderful fishing offered in Naples, Marco Island and the Everglades. On my fishing reports page I try to post weekly fishing updates especially when they involve Redfish, Snook or Tarpon. When we go fishing together we will be traveling through time in countryside that has remained untouched by man for millions of years. Whether we are flats fishing, fishing mangrove shorelines or fishing the oyster bars, the true meaning of Old Florida will overwhelm you.

While I fish several Snook and Redfish Tournaments throughout the year and pride myself on my professionalism and skill, I welcome fisherman of all skills, better yet, no skill. If you have ever thought of taking a child fishing for the first time, I will ensure the child has an enjoyable and memorable time. As a father of two young boys nothing is more important to me then the respect and admiration a child learns about nature while sport fishing. While I personally practice catch and release when Snook fishing, it is not uncommon to catch several species whose numbers are not in sharp decline and their meat is as good or better then Snook. Occasionally mortality befalls our Snook while fishing for them, in which case we do harvest the fish to insure their meat is not wasted. As one of Florida's most important game fish, Snook management has been on the forefront of the Florida Fish and Wildlife's to do list. Recently Snook harvest sizes have been reduced to 28" minimum and 33" maximum on the West coast of Florida.

Not everyone is out to fish for trophy fish. Many of my clients are out to fish specifically for dinner. In my opinion there is no better time of year for that then Winter. Fishing in the Summer, Spring and Fall will give you your best shots at big Redfish, Snook and Tarpon; however winter will give you your best fishing for dinner.  In the winter, many species that are normally well offshore move into the backcountry for food and stable habitat. Fish such as Sheepshead, Trout, Grouper, Whiting, Snapper, Pompano and Black Drum all move inshore in large schooling numbers. Fishing for these species in the winter can often lead to 50 to 100 fish days.

Fishing in Naples, Marco Island  and Everglades for BIG SNOOK is very different and very much the same. What keeps people going back day in and day out in the pursuit of big Snook? Perhaps it's the hunt. Snook fishing for BIG Snook in particular is mostly a hunt. Sometimes you see your target but most of the time you don't Hours of fishing for that one moment.....the moment that big ole' Snook pounds your line and sends your blood pressure sky high! Come fishing in Naples, Marco Island or the Everglades and lets go fish for big Snook. Snook fishing is my passion  , catching Redfish makes me giddy and jumping Tarpon makes me feel alive.
