Kid-Friendly Trips

Bring the Kids Fishing

We are a family-owned and operated fishing service. As a father of 3 daughters, some of my fondest memories were made fishing with my girls and exploring all of the Southwest Florida coastal wildlife. After over 2 decades of keeping daughters, their friends and – mother – dry, comfortable, and entertained, I look forward to applying all those years of patience, and gentle boating skills a father is forced to develop, to treat you and your family to the same thing.

I absolutely love to take kids fishing aboard Southern Gentlemen Fishing Charters! Few things are as rewarding to me as guiding a junior – or brand new – angler to catches that will open up an entirely new world to our future anglers. I promise that your children will forget all about their devices, social media and gaming consoles – if only for a few hours, until they are ready to share the pictures and fun they will have from the trip.

I will match our tackle and species to your child’s angling experience. And believe me, not only do kids want to catch a bunch of fish, regardless of size, they love the stories, adventures and follies that stoke their imaginations, make them laugh, anticipate, and appreciate the experience we are providing!

When fishing aboard my Maverick Master Angler, you and your children will enjoy a safe and comfortable charter fishing experience -and we can get you closer to the action than captains who fish larger bay boats and center consoles.

Your entire family is welcome aboard Southern Gentlemen Fishing Charters and I look forward to introducing your child or children to the amazing fishery that is only a quick cast away.
