Winter fishing in full swing
Winter fishing in full swing
Январь 3, 2026
Winter is in full swing here in Southwest Florida, and last week we saw some of the coldest mornings of the season with temperatures dropping into the low 40s. When these strong cold fronts move through, our gulf water temperatures drop quickly, and that triggers a noticeable shift in fish behavior. As conditions cool, many inshore species begin sliding out of the shallows and heading for deeper, more stable water where temperatures fluctuate less. This is a very predictable winter pattern and one we rely on heavily while running Naples fishing charters and Marco Island fishing charters. Anytime a cold front pushes through, my game plan is simple: head deeper and deeper into the backcountry, especially during low water. These fish stack up in deeper holes, troughs, and along protected shorelines where they can conserve energy and stay comfortable. Right now, we’re finding solid numbers of snook, sea trout, pompano, jack crevalle, mangrove snapper, and redfish tucked in tight to the deeper shorelines throughout the backcountry. This style of Naples back country fishing is extremely productive during winter and a staple of our Naples, Florida fishing trips. The timing couldn’t be better with a full moon approaching. Full moon phases bring extreme tidal swings, giving us very low lows and very high highs. These big tides help position fish even tighter to structure and depth changes, making them easier to target if you’re in the right areas. Early morning fishing around these tides has been especially productive, and it’s a great time for anglers booking Naples fishing guides and Marco Island fishing guides to experience some quality action. When it comes to lures, winter fishing is all about slowing things down. My go-to setup has been a 3/8-ounce jig head paired with an NLBN 3-inch paddle tail or a 3-inch shrimp pattern. These jigs excel when water temperatures plummet because fish are holding closer to the bottom and are less willing to chase fast-moving baits. A slower, more deliberate presentation keeps the lure in the strike zone longer and makes it far more appetizing for cold-water fish like Naples snook fishing targets and wintertime sea trout. This approach has been producing consistent bites on snook fishing Marco Island, along with quality redfish for anglers interested in Marco Island red fishing Naples. We’re also seeing surprise hookups with pompano and jacks mixed in, adding variety to each trip. Whether you’re casting jigs, working deeper edges, or even trying Marco Island fly fishing on calmer days, the winter bite has been strong for those willing to adjust to the conditions. Overall, winter fishing offers some of the most reliable backcountry action of the year. From early morning fishing sessions to full-day trips chasing snook, trout, and redfish, this is a prime season to explore the deeper waters. While most people think of spring and summer for species like Marco Island tarpon fishing, winter delivers its own rewards with less pressure and concentrated fish. If you’re looking to experience the best of Naples fishing charters and Marco Island fishing Naples, now is an excellent time to get on the water.

December fishing is heating up!!

The fishing this week around Naples and Marco Island has been nothing short of fantastic, with action firing on all cylinders. Anglers booking Naples fishing charters or Marco Island fishing charters are finding steady opportunities throughout the middle islands and deep in the backcountry. As water temperatures cool, the conditions have been ideal for a classic winter pattern, and the fish are responding in a big way. We’re still catching plenty of snook along the middle islands, and the snook fishing Naples and snook fishing Marco Island anglers are experiencing consistent hookups. Every year when the water temps begin to fall, those snook push farther into the backcountry, and this week is no exception. On the low incoming tides, the fish have been staging along shorelines with deep undercuts, which are producing excellent numbers. For those seeking snook fishing on artificials, fly, or live bait, expect the action to remain strong as long as the warmer weather holds. A decent redfish bite is also underway, with reds mixed in alongside the snook. The bait fishing has been outstanding as well—live pilchards are thick on the nearshore wrecks just a mile or so off the beaches, and I am loading up with only a few throws of the cast net. With live wells full, we’re set up perfectly for action-packed days on the water. Combined with aggressive schools of jacks and plentiful mangrove snapper, anglers on Naples fishing guides trips and guided fishing trips out of Marco Island are staying busy from start to finish. Another positive sign for the season is the appearance of sea trout starting to move into the area. The cooler water has triggered their migration, and we’re seeing more trout show up in the bays and along grass edges. This adds yet another rewarding option for those enjoying the Marco island fishing on soft plastics, fly presentations, or live shrimp. Fly anglers, in particular, are having a banner week. The backcountry fly fishing has been excellent, with snook responding aggressively to well-placed streamers and small baitfish patterns. With clean water, mild tides, and perfect weather, it’s been an ideal stretch for targeting snook on the long rod—something many Marco Island fishing anglers look forward to each winter. Tarpon sightings have been limited in the cooler temps, but it’s still a good time to plan ahead for tarpon fishing Naples as conditions begin to shift later in the season. This week’s weather forecast looks picture-perfect, giving us a great window to keep the momentum going before another cold front eventually rolls in. Until then, we’ll continue to ride this wave of excellent fishing across the region. Whether you’re hitting Naples fishing charters, joining Marco Island fishing charters, or exploring the backcountry with local Naples fishing guides, the opportunities are as good as they get for wintertime action. Until next week—catch ’em up!

You will likely catch and release a lot of catfish between trout but they put up a good fight.

Be prepared for the heat. Drink lots of water, and use sunscreen so you don't overheated. Also, be patient-the captains can't make the fish bite, or the tides change. TRUST the captains!

I would 100% recommend this trip for novice and experienced anglers alike. It was an amazing day on water which gave my son and I the chance to use various fishing techniques, some which we were accustomed to and some which were more unique. If you are looking for a great fishing experience book this trip and IMO half day is the way to go regardless of experience.

Weather can change weekly, I was lucky and had stable warm weather. Have realistic expectations, if your looking for a big bite, wait a couple more months. We caught plenty and had a blast.

While we were completely satisfied with the fish we caught in January, we’d like to come back when the waters are warmer and try our luck with some larger fish.
