Also, I've fished with Capt. Wright and a couple of his other guides out of Chokoloskee. Most were great trips. However, he usually fishes south of Everglades City/Choko., and doesn't hit the 10,000 islands and Marco areas as hard for fishing. (birdwatching and eco tours, yes). I'd find someone who's "backyard" is right where you're fishing/staying. You want someone with very intimate knowledge. My picks would be Marco first, then Sanibel. The further south, the better, in my experience, though you can't go wrong anywhere on the west coast of Florida. Hell, the whole state is smothered in water full of fish!
