The Ten Thousand Islands region features countless productive fishing spots, from shallow grass flats to deeper channels and oyster bars. This diverse habitat supports year-round fishing opportunities, with different species becoming more active during specific seasons and tidal conditions.
Local Tips & Conditions
The Everglades backcountry fishing depends heavily on tidal movement and seasonal weather patterns. Spring and fall typically offer the most consistent action, with cooler water temperatures bringing fish into the shallows to feed. Summer fishing can be excellent during early morning and late afternoon hours when temperatures are more comfortable. Winter months provide opportunities for sight fishing when water clarity is at its peak.
These waters are best suited for anglers who enjoy the challenge of light tackle fishing and the peaceful environment of Florida's backcountry. The shallow draft boats used for these trips allow access to areas larger vessels cannot reach, providing a more intimate fishing experience away from crowded waters.

ARF Charters provides all necessary fishing equipment including rods, reels, tackle, and bait. The shallow draft boat is specifically designed for backcountry navigation and can accommodate small groups for a personalized fishing experience. Trips typically begin early morning to take advantage of optimal tidal conditions and comfortable temperatures. Guests should bring sun protection, snacks, and beverages for the day. Captain Ariel handles all navigation and fish cleaning, allowing guests to focus on enjoying their time on the water.
