Captain Rob Modys approaches fishing the waters of Southwest Florida with science instead of luck. What I Know About Fishing Southwest Florida is the culmination of his many years, days and hours on the water searching for gamefish along beaches, bays and those hidden places of Pine Island Sound, Matlacha Pass, Estero Bay and south through the Ten Thousand Islands.

A Southwest Florida charter captain and avid fisherman, Modys would spend close to 300 days a year on the water. When he wasn't on the boat he was teaching students in structured weekly saltwater fishing classes for Collier County Schools Adult Education and Bass Pro Shops in Fort Myers. When he wasn't teaching he could be found speaking at seminars for the Florida Sportsman Fishing Expos and serving as faculty for the Salt Water Sportsman National Seminar Series.
