Captain Jonas Things to do on Sanibel Island



For a great day on the water in southwest Florida, why don’t you consider heading over to Sanibel Island. The crabbing is phenomenal, and fishing off the coast is very productive as well for tarpon, grouper, snook, kingfish, and even the infamous blue marlin!

New Paint: A New Look for Your Old Boat

If you have bought a used boat, the appearance can be improved with a good coat of boat or marine paint. Cosmetics are more than skin deep on any boat – you want to be sure that you have a boat with no damage in the materials that were used to make it. Check your boat over carefully, and as long as it's seaworthy, a coat of paint can bring your boat new life.



Your boat exterior may be dull, and this may not always be a bad thing. The… Continue

Captain Greg Hood My Fishing Boat

My Fishing Boat



Normally I write a fishing report. This time I would like to share with you a story about my boat.



I had a 18’ Sterling made by American Marine Sports in Groveland Fl.



My charter business grew and I needed a larger vessel. I really liked my Sterling so I upgraded to a 22’ Sterling. I bought the new vessel in November of 2008. What a great decision.



Since that time I’ve run 174 trips with clients. I have 315 hours on the engine. I also… Continue

Looks like the Trout survived the cold also, and that might be the best fishing around until the water… Continue

There’s not any other feeling that even comes close but there is one thing that can ruin it all and that would be inconsiderate boaters.



When you’re out on the water, it’s not a competition to see who has the biggest or the fastest boat, it’s suppose to be a fun way to enjoy your free time and soak up the… Continue
