Experience the Best Fishing in Marco Island, Florida | Joe Snook Guide Service

Joe Snook Guide Service offers exceptional fishing trips in the beautiful waters surrounding Marco Island, Florida. Led by Captain Joe Cassaro with over 25 years of experience, our goal is to ensure our guests have an unforgettable and satisfying experience on the water.

Whether you're a beginner or an experienced angler, looking for a fun family outing or aiming for a trophy catch, we happily welcome you aboard. While our main focus is on Snook fishing, we also target other exciting species such as Tarpon, Redfish, Black Drum, Tripletail, Cobia, Shark, and Permit.

Our 22' Blue Wave bay boat is your vessel for the adventure, accommodating up to five anglers comfortably. Equipped with standard safety features, GPS, fishfinder, live bait well, ice box, and wireless trolling motor, this boat is perfect for a maximum of 3 adults or two adults and 2 kids under 13.

Rest assured, we provide all the necessary fishing gear including rods, reels, tackle, and lures. While live bait is typically prepared beforehand, depending on the trip and tides, there may be an opportunity for you to fish for live bait during the excursion. Captain Joe will ensure any time spent fishing for bait is made up during your trip.

To preserve the fisheries, catch and release is encouraged. However, if you're looking for a meal, you're welcome to keep your catch, and Captain Joe will gladly clean it for you. Feel free to utilize the cooler on board for storing your fish.

When preparing for your trip, Captain Joe suggests bringing a long sleeve performance shirt, a buff, a cap, and amber lens sunglasses to enhance your casting accuracy. Pack some snacks, drinks, and a camera to capture the memorable moments of your day.

Please note, we do not offer offshore and reef fishing trips.
