It looks like somebody is on a roll!

On Friday October 3rd we were lucky enough to ride along with Capt Whitney Jones and Frank Lawrence to see what the waters of Sanibel and Captiva had to offer us. We got to the dock and headed out into the Gulf of Mexico to one the many fishing hot spots that Capt Whitney frequently takes his guests to. With the first cast Frank reeled in a decent sized spotted seatrout. The fishing only got better from there with all three of us able to bring in a handful of ladyfish, spotted seatrout and even the occasional unwanted catfish.

Capt Whitney Jones is available for half and full day charters. For more information contact Capt Whitney Jones: (239)-410-8665. Capt Whitney’s custom rod and reel setups are available at The Bait Box (239)-472-0618.
