ABOUT CAPT. BRENT BENSMILLER

Soon after moving to Naples from Houston in 2008, I was spending the majority of my free time fishing and paddling the inshore waters and mangrove trails of Estero Bay.

Kayaking provided the perfect way to explore the less traveled waterways, while enjoying nature and catching fish that weren’t seeing lures everyday. After exploring the area I quickly realized what an amazing fishery and ecosystem Estero Bay had to offer and needless to say, I became hooked!

I’m an avid angler and paddler that would love to guide you through our beautiful area and teach you tactics to become a better fisherman!

Join Paddle Naples on a guided tour and let us show you the true beauty of Southwest Florida!
