Backwater Fishing

Relax and fish among the shallow shores of the 10,000 Islands. These tranquil waters hold numerous game fish such as Snook, Tarpon. Redfish, Snapper, Trout, Jack Creval, Pompano, Sheepshead and Ladyfish among others. As your cruising the shallows, see Dolphins, West Indies Manatee and dozens of different land and sea birds.

The backwaters require a little casting of either live or artificial baits along mangrove covered shores and sandy beaches. This is a great adventure for the whole family. The protected waters are calm and children through adult can enjoy the action. With little travel you can be relaxing and hooking up with some of the worlds most unique gamefish. If the kids or wife need a change of pace, stop off on one of Marco's barrier island beaches to shell or swim. Most charters don't mind a little break in the action.
