Backwater fishing is about venturing into the untouched, serene pockets of the Everglades. These labyrinthine waters, surrounded by lush mangroves and echoing with the calls of distant wildlife, provide a fishing experience like no other. It’s here, in the hidden corners, that true anglers find their paradise.
Introduction to Backwater Fishing
The Allure of the Backwaters
Your day will start with an introduction to the basic equipment and safety protocols. Captain Jesse will guide you through the essentials of fishing, from choosing the right bait to understanding the behavior of fish. As you cast your line into the waters, you’ll experience the anticipation, the thrill of the first tug, and the joy of your first catch. It’s not just about the fish; it’s about the stories, the laughter, and the memories you’ll create.
Benefits of Backwater Fishing
Choosing backwater fishing is choosing an experience. The waters, sheltered by the mangroves, are often calmer, making it a meditative experience. The intricate pathways offer a sense of exploration and adventure, leading to spots that few have fished in. And with Captain Jesse’s deep knowledge of these waters, you’re always in for a rewarding session.

We had a great time with Captain Jesse! He provided us with the kind of experience we were after and worked hard to put us on fish. He was patient with my boys and they were talking his ear off in no time. A trip we will never forget.
I have been fishing with Jesse at outgoing charters for over 10 years. Nobody knows the backwaters or how to catch fish there better than Captain Jesse. We caught fish every trip and he always makes it an enjoyable trip. He is friendly knowledgeable and patient. There is nothing like escaping the everyday stresses of life and heading to the backwaters to fish with Jesse at outgoing charters. Worth every penny.
It’s always been amazing with Captain Jesse fishing around the 10,000 islands in the Everglades. I went out in the beginning of February with him and he had me hooked up to the biggest fish I’ve ever caught! A giant cobia! The day kept getting better as we went further inland to catch several reds and a few snook! I can’t wait to get down there in a few weeks and do it all over again!
Jesse was great! He handled us on a full boat of me & 3 teenagers. He was joking & teaching my teens. Our first experience in the everglades. Caught a variety of species & saw dolphins. Loved it.
We have went out with Capt Jesse about 6 times in the past 5 years and we always have a great time! He is extremely knowledgeable and friendly and does all he can to get you to the best fishing spots in the Ten Thousand Islands. There is no other charter captain we trust to take us fishing!
