Read what some of our customers say about their
fishing experiences with Captain Russ !

I have been fishing with Captain Russ for years.  His knowledge of southwest Florida waters is unsurpassed.  Not only can he put you on fish when the conditions are perfect, but he knows how to find the fish when the other guys can't.  

Russ is the most professional guide I have ever worked with and he is always a pleasure to spend the day with.  Thanks Captain Russ!

Let me tell you about my experiences fishing with Russ Schnering. Every time we are down from Illinois, we give Russ a call and we go fishing. We have always had a GREAT time with Russ.   His boat and fishing equipment is top notch, his expertise is the best, his knowledge of the local fishing spots is amazing. He is very good to help with techniques (fishing in Tampa Bay is a little different than fishing the lakes of Illinois!) and it is apparent that Russ' goal is for his fisherman clients to have a great time. He has always attained that goal with us. This picture is of my son-in-law Jason and I holding a huge permit, which was taken from a recent charter with Russ.

Captain Russ put us on the fish from the start, including a great 28 inch red. A memory my father-in-law and I will never forget. Can't wait until the next time !

 I have fished all of my life in Florida waters. Most of the time I have used my own boat I moved to west Florida 5 years ago with no boat and looked for a fishing partner. I found Capt.Russ on the Internet and took a chance. As luck would have it, I found a guide that was easy going and was a lot of fun to fish with. Capt Russ always has great baits and knows where and when to fish certain areas. We always have caught fish, regardless of the weather. Inside fishing for Reds and Snook, or a few miles out for Grouper, weather permitting. Capt. Russ has a good boat for the dedicated angler and he makes the trip very enjoyable. I would recommend Capt Russ to any angler looking for a good days fishing with a real gentleman.
