rubble Report post Posted December 4, 2016 Anyone here fish the Naples area? Going to be there over the Holidays and looking for some tips to fishing the area. I've hired guides there a couple times and all we've done is fish docks and Gordon Pass with live bait. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rubble Report post Posted December 5, 2016 I'll be running down that way a few days as well as playing around in Choko but I'm going to try to fish some around the Naples area when limited on time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
poleposition Report post Posted December 9, 2016 Spend time back in Johnson Bay and First National. Small dark jigs and chunk if you want lazy fishing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rubble Report post Posted December 9, 2016 Familiar with Johnson Bay but not First National. I'll be fishing with my 15 year old son and 12 year old daughter. More like I'll be watching and helping them fish. I might get to wet a line or two. Don't think either can fish structure with jigs but we can give it a shot. They'll need to be retrieving swim baits, top water, cranks, etc. or watching live bait swim. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
poleposition Report post Posted December 9, 2016 First National = the back of Rookery. Also, I'd start at the back wall of Johnson on the incoming and fish my way well into the back water as the tide rises. I've done pretty well with a dark backed skitter-walk at times there as well. As you might imagine, shrimp and chunk will work well usually too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
