Reef Fishing
Great Escape targets fish such as Mutton Snapper, Yellowtail Snapper, Grey Snapper, Sailfish, Mackerel, and Grouper on a Reef Fishing trip. Catching nearly every type of Pelagic game fish makes Reef Fishing so fun and exciting. Watching the fishes swimming around the boat is an awesome experience!
Wreck Fishing
Maneuvering Great Escape with strategically placed bait and tackle, Captain Tony has made Wreck Fishing an art. There is also a wide variety of bottom structure loaded with fish, especially snapper and grouper. Wreck Fishing is usually more productive in the morning and great for early risers!
Offshore Mahi Mahi Fishing
Great Escape uses several techniques such as trolling, looking for birds, rips, and debris to locate big fishes such as Mahi Mahi - sought after due to their food nutritional value. Once they are located, the trip turns into an adventure of controlled pandemonium. Offshore Fishing is absolutely phenomenal!
Sword Fishing
With Florida being the fishing capital of the world it stands to reason that it would be the most sought after Sword Fishing destination. Daytime Sword Fishing creates great excitement of the catch due to the visual aspect with either manual or electric reels in deep water. Try night time Sword Fishing!

The Great Escape
Welcome to Great Escape Sport Fishing! I am Captain Tony Smith. Having fished the Florida Waters my entire life, I am looking forward to sharing four decades of passion and experience with you on my boat for a fishing experience that will leave you biting for more catches for years to come. When I am not navigating Great Escape, I am bass fishing in the Florida Everglades. Want a catch? Great! Let’s catch some fish!
I have been fishing with Capt. Tony for the past couple of years. Although I am just a novice fisherman, Tony always makes me feel like a pro. He is very knowledgeable and patient and we always catch a ton of fish. He always knows exactly where to go for the fish. I highly recommend to anyone wanting to have a good time and reel in some big ones. Looking forward to seeing him again next season. Thanks again!

Our last trip out with Captain Tony was amazing. We had great weather and he knew just where to drop in our lines to start catching Mahi right away. I have recommended him to many of my friends and family. If you are looking to fish for the first time or even if you are experiences, Tony is your guide. Thanks Tony!
