We know that kayak fisherman want to travel and be able to take their skills to pursue species away from home waters and we aim to showcase the people that bring these experiences to you. Whether it is a trip to a far away place or a kayak fishing guide in your home state, we will bring you all the information we can.
Capt. Charles Wright has been taking people on kayak trips for years now and I myself have done 2 of them, one to the Keys and the other to the Glades. Being taxied into these unexplored locations with kayaks is truly a special experience that will not soon be forgotten. I can say it was one of the most professional and well-run operations I have seen. The operation is now expanding to take anglers to even more exotic locations. Below is the press release explaining what is in the works for these trips and destinations from Chokoloskee Charters.
Capt. Charles Wright and Chokoloskee Charters are pleased to announce the launch of www.EvergladesKayakFishing.com. Kayak Fishing is the fastest growing segment of the sports fishing industry. Inexpensive, quiet, eco-friendly and unobtrusive, the fishing kayak is enjoyed by all ages. Using dedicated kayak transport boats, guests are ferried deep into Everglades National Park for a day of guided fishing in the most remote areas of Park yet they are back in time for dinner at a local restaurant. The sport of Kayak Fishing has come a long way in a short time. With guided trips to the Florida Keys, the Bahamas, the Marquesas Keys, South Biscayne Bay, Homosassa and the Suwannee River, EvergladesKayakFishing.com is a reflection of where the sport is today.

Upcoming December, 2008 Wizard Creek Camping and Snook Fishing
Wizard Creek is one on the most unique areas within the western Everglades National Park. A creek that runs from the gulf waters through the mangrove wilderness into the backwaters of the Wilderness Waterway; it is a super-highway shortcut for both fish and wading birds. While the place is always rich in fodder for the wading birds, sometimes the Creek is like "fish soup", alive with baitfish, birds and SNOOK!
In November and December, the Creek is absolutely "soupy" with snook. One Thanksgiving Day, I took my wife Vickie there early in the morning. She released 22 slot sized snook and we were back in time for the turkey dinner. The article, published in several magazines, is about fishing Wizard Creek in December. Leaving Everglades City the afternoon of the first evening, it is about an hour's ride in the Yak Attack deep into the Park's core. We run through the mangrove backcountry passing Chokoloskee Island, traveling up the Lopez River, though Crooked Creek, into Sunday Bay and then along the Wilderness Waterway above the headwaters of the Huston River through Chevalier and Cannon Bays. Upon arrival, we immediately set up camp at a ground site very near the mouth of the Creek. A very short paddle away is Wizard Creek. The Creek is actually a system of interconnecting bays and creeks. There is an entire world back in these back bays with lots of opportunity for some great fishing. While the Creek, holds tarpon, redfish, snappers, black drum, sharks and even grouper, it the snook fishing that really is special. Timed for an early rising full moon, this trip allows us to fish either night or day or both if you choose. These trips are typically over a weekend, so you can fish Friday evening/night, all day (and all night, if you choose) Saturday and most of the day Sunday. Early Sunday afternoon, we will break camp and head back to Everglades City. This trip is completely outfitted and provisioned for $495/per angler but is limited to six anglers
