AS THE DOG DAYS OF SUMMER APPROACH…
Fishing in the Gulf can become challenging due to low salinity levels and high water temperatures. However, Pica Charters has the perfect solutions for an exciting and fruitful fishing trip in SWFL, even in the heat of summer. Whether you’re planning a fishing tour or a night fishing adventure, we’ve got you covered. Here’s how to make the most of your fishing charters in Naples this season.
During the summer, targeting species like snook, redfish, and tarpon requires strategic planning.
These fish, much like their freshwater counterparts, prefer cooler water temperatures. The best times to fish are early in the morning or late in the day around dusk. These times offer lower temperatures and higher chances of success, making your fishing trip more enjoyable and productive.
The Role of Tides
Tides continue to play a significant role in the success of your fishing adventure. Understanding and timing your trips according to the tides can greatly enhance your chances of landing your desired catch. For those who find the midday heat overwhelming, adjusting your fishing schedule can make a significant difference.
Night Fishing: A Cool Alternative
If the daytime heat is too intense, consider embarking on a night fishing tour. Night fishing offers a cooler environment and can be incredibly productive. The snapper bite is particularly active at night, and you can also expect to catch snook, trout, and other species. Unlike daytime fishing, tides play a lesser role at night, allowing for extended fishing sessions and consistent bites.
Fishing early in the morning, late in the day, or even at night not only increases your chances of catching fish but also helps you stay cooler. These times provide a more comfortable and enjoyable experience on the water, making your fishing trip with Pica Charters an unforgettable adventure.
