CAPT. JOEY BENKO

I’m Capt. Joey Benko, a full time fishing guide in the Naples Florida area.  Living in Naples for the past 20 years I have enjoyed this very special fishery and would love the chance to share it with you.  I consider myself very lucky to have such an office to enjoy my true passion.  It is very important to assure all of my clients have the experience of a lifetime. From the expert angler to the first time angler I will do my best to teach you the proper techniques to catch the big ones. Through emails and phone calls I structure each charter to meet the expectations of my guests. Having fished these waters since 1994, I’ve learned some great techniques for catching the big ones. From live baits in the summer to soft plastics in the winter join me in chasing down the catch of a lifetime.

​Joey was great!!! Amazing captain that consistently put us on fish! Tons of snook, a jack, and a redfish!!! Took the girlfriend out for her first saltwater fishing adventure and it was worth every moment of it! I will definitely be looking him up when I'm back here!

​Took a buddy for a 1/2 day and what fun. Joey knows where to find the fish, how to speak their language and get them on your hook. Plus he is funny and a real fun character to spend time with

Went out on the boat with Joey this morning and it was one of the best fishing experiences I've ever had! Definitely worth the trip down from Ohio for! He's incredibly knowledgeable and knows exactly where to go to catch some monsters!!

“Excellent Guide!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed April 14, 2014
We went backwater fishing with Capt. Joey on our most recent trip to Naples. His charter picks up at the City Pier which was especially convenient for us. We had an excellent time on the water -- Capt. Joey brought us through the backwater channels and inlets and we had great success catching everything from Tarpon, Jacks, Redfish, Snook and many others. He is an excellent captain and we will absolutely book with Capt. Joey the next time we fish in Naples.

My dad, brother, and I have charted at least 10 backwater trips in the Naples area over the years and none have compared to Joey. We have been out with BustnLoose over 5 times and have yet to have anything short of a great day of fishing, and caught some of the biggest fish of our lives. If you're looking for some great fishing with a good guy, Joey is your man.
