Naples has lots of artificial reefs and wrecks within 15 miles of shore. This 6 hour trip is great for those who want to catch big fish for sport! We will catch fish to eat but recommend further offshore trips for more eating fish.
Beach/Sunset Cruise
$800-$1,200
The trip for the whole fam! An unforgettable beach day cruising the intracoastal waterway or enjoying a beautiful sunset, Naples style! Join Capt. Alec as he narrates your tour through beautiful Naples Bay. 2-4 hr trips available.
Offshore Fishing Trips
Trips range from 4- 24 hours long targeting all sorts of Gulf species 15-150 miles offshore. Contact Capt Alec (305)501-1826 to book!
4 hour OFFSHORE
$2,100
This trip we will run up to 40 miles offshore and back on a half day fishing trip. We will always get 2 hours of fishing in with an hour boat ride each way! Get to the grounds, catch a bunch and come home before lunch!
6 hour OFFSHORE
$3,100
More run time to farther grounds allows for a whole lot more fish. This trip allows us to target grouper, snapper and others but be home in time to cook them up!
8 hour OFFSHORE
$4,100
For the more serious anglers we recommend this trip. Get out there 60 miles into the Gulf with plenty of time to fish. This trip we will fill the boxes up or pull on fish 'til you're tired!
Full Day Offshore
These trips are geared towards serious anglers who want to experience the Gulf for what she truly holds. Contact Capt Alec (305)501-1826 to book!
12 hour Grouper trip
$5,100
This trip is specifically for the meat. The longer trip gives us more time with bait in the water. The goal of this trip is specifically to limit out on red grouper while they're in season! Currently 2 per person.
Full Day Wreck & Reef
$6,000
Captain's favorite. After hitting the reefs all day it's time to try your luck (or strength) at the wrecks. The Gulf is full of shipwrecks and other structures that hold the fish. Capt. Alec and his crew suggest this trip to those who want the "full experience".
These trips are aimed at exploration and pushing the limits. The Dry Tortugas, Pully Ridge, Middle Grounds are all within grasp aboard the Bottom Line. Includes red snapper season. Inquiries contact Capt. Alec directly.
All fishing gear, license and equipment provided. Bring anything you'd like to eat or drink! Contact Capt Alec (305)501-1826 to book!

Lines of Hope
Our Story
Out on the open water, something changes in people. The noise of everyday life fades and is replaced by the steady rhythm of waves and the quiet thrill of waiting for a bite. For years, the team at Bottom Line Sportfishing has been about sharing that magic with our guests. We realized it could be so much more.
We saw an opportunity to turn the same fishing lines that bring in our catch, into lifelines of hope for people who need it most. That is where Lines of Hope was born.
Our mission is simple, but powerful. Use the ocean and the sport of fishing to create moments of joy, connection, and healing. Every trip is more than just a charter. It is a chance for someone to feel the salt air on their face, to forget their struggles for a few hours, and to be reminded that they are not alone.
We welcome veterans and first responders who have given so much for their communities. We bring children facing life challenges and their families out for a day they will never forget. We open the deck to anyone whose spirit could use the lift that only a day on the water can bring.
When you partner with Lines of Hope on the Bottom Line, you are doing more than supporting fishing trips. You are helping write stories of courage and resilience. You are helping create memories that become anchors in the hardest of storms. You are helping us prove that sometimes the best catch is not a fish at all.
The ocean has always been generous to us. Now it is our turn to give back. Together we can cast lines that will change lives.
Please keep an eye out for more details coming soon!
