If you want to catch fish with a helpful good captain; Bubby Hail is your guy!
We had a great time afternoon fishing with Captain Bubby Hail on November 6, 2017.
We caught about 30 fish and kept a big Snook, Red Fish, and a Snapper for dinners. Hail knows a few extra tricks to catch fish. We will use him again. Give him a try and you will not be disappointed!

Wonderful Experience
My wife and 2 boys (7 and 9) had the pleasure of fishing with Captain Bubby Hail this morning. We live in Colorado and my boys haven't fished much and never from a boat. Bubby was absolutely wonderful – a great teacher and extremely patient with both my wife and boys. He's clearly been doing this for a long time. We fished near mangroves and at some of Bubby's secret spots, one, in particular, that got a bite at almost every cast. We caught mostly snapper, but also jack and mackerel. It was very hot but everyone had fun and it's an experience my boys will never forget. I can't recommend Bubby and his company enough, be sure to use them for all your charter fishing needs in the Marco/Naples area!!!
Kids First Time
Went out this AM with Capt. Bubby Hail with two dads and two sons first time doing any real fishing. Bubby was fantastic and the fishing was great. Caught a few sharks and TONS of snapper and mackerel for dinner. Bubby did a GREAT job being patient with the boys who didn't know a lot about gear, technique, etc. He was beyond patient and they learned a ton for our next time out. When we come back down to the Marco area we will without a doubt go fishing with Bubby again and I simply can recommend him enough! Thanks for helping us create some great memories and help introduce our sons to our favorite pastime. Tight lines!!

Great times with Captain Bubby!
We took a 3/4 day fishing with Captain Bubby in April 2017. We caught 30 some lane snapper for eating that night then we fished for the shark. To see my daughter's eyes get as big as balloons when she got an 8′ nurse shark was the highlight of the trip. Thank you, Capt. Bubby Hail
An outstanding day of family fishing with an outstanding guide and captain!
When visiting Marco Island, there are plenty of fishing charters to choose from. So, being a detailed planner, I reviewed a dozen or so fishing charter websites and associated reviews on Trip Advisor and other sites to determine which guide would be the best for our day out. Several companies had outstanding reviews, and Florida’s Finest Fishing wasn’t the first I called. However, they were the most courteous when I did call and most accommodating including a change in date after we had originally booked. When we arrived for our charter, Bubby Hail, our captain, greeted us as we approached the dock with a smile and genuine friendliness. Our group had a variety of fishing experience and skills and Bubby showed patience and humor with all levels. In addition, he took the time to teach those with less experience showing excellent tips and tricks to make the day enjoyable! On top of that, he put us right on the fish! Many boats were out that day, but I’m fairly certain we had the largest catch of any. In fact, after we found and began catching fish, we noticed many other charters lining up beside us to capture some of the action. But we, thanks to Bubby, were the first on the spot! Overall excellent experience and would definitely choose Florida’s Finest Fishing again! Thank you, Bubby, for an excellent and memorable day of fishing!!
On The Water with Bubby Hail
Once again, we had a great day on the water With Captain Bubby Hail. Weather, water & fishing were perfect. Bubby picked out a spot & we spent the better part of the morning on or near the same location. We caught 5 nice red grouper keepers & of course, a bunch that was near keeper size, which we returned to the water to catch another day. Also, the lane snappers & Key West snapper were also biting. The 2nd best part of fishing with Bubby is the jibber-jabber back & forth. Not only is it the fishing that has makes us return to Bubby, but it is the comaraderie we have developed over several years & several trips. Bubby works extremely hard to make your trip the best it can be. At our trip’s conclusion, picked up the wives & took our fish to Cracklin Jacks & had them cooked 4 different ways.
