We are very sorry to announce the loss of one of our own, Captain Chuck Bye. Chuck was an avid angler and boater who never hesitated to volunteer to take out Club members who didn't have their own boats so that they could participate in the monthly Club fishing tournaments. He willingly shared his extensive fishing knowledge and was an all round GREAT guy. We miss him already and wish to express our sincere condolences to his family.
We love to fish! We love to learn more about fishing, conservation of our fisheries, and safety in boating and fishing. To that end, we have monthly meetings that feature local experts in these fields. We conduct a few social events each year and have a lot of fun!
We are a not for profit organization. We love to support local organizations that share our passion for clean water, protecting our fisheries and education in the area of fishing. Among those are Sanibel-Captiva Conservation Foundation, Captains for Clean Water, Ding Darling Wildlife Society and the Sanibel Sea School.
The Sanibel Island Fishing Club meets monthly through the season and holds several group fishing outings.
