What would you recommend to anglers fishing in Everglades City, Florida for the first time?

The fishing has varied from one trip to another but I never tire of the experience of exploring those waters that I would never be able to navigate on my own. Having an experienced, conscientious captain take us out on a boat that is made for fishing in the flats which dominate that region has made very trip memorable.

Very hot so be prepared. Go in the morning and get a knowledgeable guide like Bobby at Waterbiy charter.

Try to stay at the rod and gun fairy friendly people and when you’re ready to go fishing go to water boy charters in my opinion there’s none better

There are several charter Capts there, hook up with one of them and enjoy your day out. Ask questions and learn about the area.

Stay at Ivey house. Recommend setting your date around incoming morning tide, not outgoing.

It's a long way from anywhere. Many businesses only take cash. Spotty cell service.
