Never 2 Nauti Fishing Charters is all about family fun, learning how to fish, and spending some quality time in nature. Captain Gerald Hernandez has been fishing for over 30 years and he can launch from any boat ramp in Lee County.

You’ll be fishing from a 22’ Pathfinder TRS 2200 bay boat. Built in 2020, she’s brand new and equipped with all necessary safety and navigational gear. Higher topsides make the boat a great option for family trips. As there’s no minimum age policy, bring your kids along. The captain has life vests for kids as well but you’ll need to bring your own vests if the kids are younger than 10.

Almost any fish that swims the inshore and nearshore waters in the area can be your catch. You’ll target all kinds of Snappers and Groupers, Snook, Redfish, Speckled Trout, Flounder, Black Drum, Spanish Mackerel, and many more. You can keep anything that’s within regulations and Capt. Gerald will clean and fillet it for you after the trip.

The Captain will also prepare your Shimano and Daiwa fishing equipment. He uses all spinning reels, that are suitable for all skill levels and also has both right-hand and left-hand models. When it comes to live bait, you can discuss with him in advance whether you want it to be prepared before the trip or catch it with the captain when the trip starts.

Bring sunscreen, weather-appropriate clothing, and your snacks and drinks for the day. In case you have a cooler for the drinks, feel free to bring it with you.

The launching spots are flexible (you can depart from Matlacha), so get in touch with the captain and start your adventure the way it suits you the most.
