Fish Everglades National Park,
Chokoloskee and The Ten Thousand Islands

Welcome Aboard

If you are on this web site you are most likely interested in a fishing destination. This one should interest you!

My name is Captain Dave Prickett and I have been a full-time fishing guide in Everglades National Park for over 20 years. I live on Chokoloskee Island – a small island located in the heart of the 10,000 Islands. The 10,000 Islands estuary happens to be the largest mangrove forest in the western hemisphere. The natural beauty and wildlife of this area is worth the trip alone.

Chokoloskee and the 10,000 Islands also offer some of the finest fishing found anywhere in the world. Many sought-after gamefish are abundant in these waters. Snook, tarpon, redfish, seatrout, and many other species are found in our coastal and backwaters of the Everglades. All of these fish can be caught year-round. Whether you preference is plug casting, fly fishing or live baiting, you will be catered to.

I run an 18’ Action Craft flats skiff which is docked at the Outdoors Resorts Marina and RV Park on Chokoloskee Island. There are plenty of motels and restaurants in the area for your convenience.

I offer Full- and Half-Day day charters. If you want your next fishing charter to take you back in time to fishing’s heyday, come and experience fishing the pristine backwaters of the Everglades.
