Freshwater Fishing
Everglades Charters
On rough ocean days when offshore and inshore conditions are not ideal, Captain Lester and Captain Tristen offer freshwater fishing charters in the Florida Everglades. Instead of canceling your trip, we take you into one of the world's most unique ecosystems for an unforgettable day on the water.
Target exotic peacock bass — aggressive, brilliantly colored fish originally from South America that thrive in South Florida's canal systems — and trophy largemouth bass, including the legendary Florida strain that produces some of the biggest bass in the world. Fish the canals, sawgrass marshes, lily pad fields, and backwaters that make the Everglades a world-class freshwater fishery.
Everglades charters are priced at the same rates as inshore charters. Visit our Everglades fishing page for more details, check our trips and rates, or contact us to book your freshwater adventure.
