Don Pedro Island in Southwest Florida is a small barrier island located between Little Gasparilla Island and Manasota Key. This incredibly scenic area offers some of the most productive year-round waters found anywhere in the US. This breathtaking scenic area offers everything a beginning or advanced angler could want including freshwater and brackish river mouths, mangrove lined salt creeks, expansive grass flats, miles of oyster bars, many deepwater passes, holes and even offshore wrecks, reefs and other structure.

This extremely diverse ecosystem is what allows us to successfully target so many highly sought after gamefish. This is also a lot of territory to cover so having a top-notch guide with the right boat can make the difference between a productive, enjoyable, action packed trip and a frustrating day striking out on the water.
