BOCA GRANDE FISHING CHARTERS
BOCA GRANDE FISHING GUIDE

Gasparilla Island is a barrier island in Southwest Florida. Boca Grande is located on the South end of the Island. Captain Tom spends three months out of the year fishing solely for Tarpon in the waters of Boca Grande Pass and the other nine months perusing for Snook, Refish, Shark, Grouper, Goliaths, and pretty much anything else which will bite.

If you are staying on Gasparilla Island, Captain Tom will be happy to do a dockside pick-up at your accommodations. Otherwise, it is a quick and easy drive to Cape Haze Marina in Englewood by car.

Pick-ups in this area are welcome for no additional fee if your accommodations offer dockage that allow commercial pick-ups.
