Capt. Butch Rickey spent much of his youth living on Sanibel and Captiva Islands, and has spent much of his life plying the waters of Pine Island Sound, Charlotte Harbor, and Sarasota Bay. His knowledge of the local waters, years of experience, and strong work ethic, combine to give you a fishing experience you'll never forget, both on the water, and on the net.
Capt. Butch's tunnel-hull Pro-Cat flats boats are unbelievably stable and roomy angling platforms that will add to your fishing fun. They are also perfect mother ships. They are powered by Yamaha 150 motors, and will run and float in unbelievably shallow water. They will get you and the paddle boats to where the fish are quickly, safely, quietly, and in comfort.
