Experience the true Backwaters of Southwest Florida 

 

My name is Captain Joe Angius and there's nowhere else in the world I'd rather be than Southwest Florida. While growing up on Long Island, I never would have imagined that my passion for fishing would be challenged by the Florida backwaters and shallow flats that are home to some of the most elusive game-fish in the world. This passion for fishing quickly became an obsession when my family and I moved to New Port Richey, FL and I was introduced to a fish called snook. Snook had such an impact on my life that when it came time to decide what college to attend, instead of looking at ivy-league universities, my mind went directly to every school far enough south that was notorious for having monster snook.

After applying to a few select colleges, I ended up pursuing my education at Florida Gulf Coast University where I majored in Environmental Studies and Biology. My learning experience at FGCU has shaped and deeply developed my sense of conservation, preservation, and sustainability. On my fishing and eco-tours I highly encourage catch and release efforts to ensure the health of our fisheries for future generations to come.

If you're looking to land a monster redfish on a fly or enjoy what Florida has to offer through fishing and sight-seeing, I'm your captain. Let's go fishing and book your trip today!​
