Collier County offers excellent back-country, on/near-shore
or offshore fishing. Before fishing, check local regulations
regarding saltwater licenses. Licenses can be obtained at The
Collier County Hunting, Fishing and Vessel Registration office
in the Tax Collector's office, Building C1, Airport Road &
US41 East, or at most bait and tackle shops. When fishing in
Florida be careful to avoid oyster bed shoals and sand bars.
Also keep a sharp lookout for manatees, a very slow moving mammal.
Many die from collisions with speeding boats.

There are two invaluable resources for everything you need to know
about fishing in Florida. They are Fishing Lines, Anglers Guide to
Florida Marine Resources, and Fishing Lines Newsletter. These free
publications provide information regarding artificial reefs, fishing
ethics, color fish identification charts, fish size, daily limits
and prohibited activities. The regulations are specific and complex
but will help you determine the type of fish and whether the size,
season and quantity are acceptable.
