Welcome to Captain Patrick Gould's Fishing Charters, your premier destination for unforgettable fishing adventures in Naples, Marco Island, and the 10,000 Islands. With over 20 years of experience as a charter fishing guide, Captain Patrick specializes in backwater (inshore) fishing for Tarpon, Snook, and Redfish, as well as many other species depending on the time of year.

Our Fishing Charters
At Captain Patrick's Fishing Charters, we offer several different types of fishing charters to suit your schedule and enjoyment. Our charters include:
- Inshore spin fishing
- Near shore fishing
- Saltwater fly fishing
- Night fishing charters
We offer half-day, 3/4 day, full-day, and night fishing charters, and can accommodate up to 4 anglers on our 21' Release flats boat. If you have a larger group, we can accommodate your group by coordinating with other reputable fishing charter captains in our local area.
What to Expect
Naples is unique in that the waters we fish on our charters are often incredibly shallow, sometimes even a foot or less. This provides a unique opportunity for "sight fishing, " where we can actually see and target fish before casting to them. It's an experience like no other, and one that you'll never forget.
Depending on the time of year and weather, we have a multitude of species available to target on your fishing charter, including Snook, Tarpon, and Redfish. We supply everything you'll need to fish, including spin fishing tackle, fly fishing rods/reels, and fishing license. Or, you may bring your own tackle if you prefer.
