CALOOSAHATCHEE RIVER (Lee, Hendry & Glades County)

We fish the Caloosahatchee River out of Alva, Florida, Labelle, Florida and Moore Haven, Florida. We are targeting Largemouth Bass, but we will also catch other species including Snook, Tarpon, Mayan Cichlids, Tilapia and Crappie. Our Largemouth Bass fishing trips are CATCH & RELEASE ONLY. If we do luck into a Snook or a Tarpon they are CATCH & RELEASE ONLY as we do not have a Saltwater Charter License to target them directly. If we catch any Mayan Cichlids, Tilapia or Crappie you are welcome to keep them following FWC regulations. You will need to bring a cooler to take your fish home at the end of the day if you plan on retaining and/or if we catch them. We do not offer cleaning or filleting of fish on our trips. The Caloosahatchee River runs from the mouth beginning at Cape Coral and Fort Myers all the way up to the lock in Moore Haven at Lake Okeechobee. We fish the freshwater from the first lock upriver to Moore Haven. We do not fish the brackish or salt water below the first lock. There are 3 locks on the Caloosahatchee River system.
