I used to live in Naples. I have not been back there in a long time. So I can not give you an up to date fishing report. But when I lived there I did a lot of fishing. Check out the local Naples fishing pier. I have caught a lot off Snook of that pier. Live bait is best. The bigger fish will be out near the end of the pier, You can also catch redfish, mackerel, bluefish. There our some nice sheepshead if you fish with shrimp straight down along the pilings of the pier. You can catch speckled trout and pompano if you fish closer to the beach. Early mornings are best, use a pompano jig and cast parallel to the beach about half way between the beach and the bait house.

You mentioned hot weather, and you have access to a Kayak. There is good fishing at night around the many dock lights. Snook and jacks hang around the lights because they attract bait. you can paddle from light to light, cast your bait past the light and pull it from the dark into the light in the direction that the tide is flowing. You usually get hit right around the shadow line. Its pretty easy to pick out the lights that will provide action. You will see the fish popping the bait under the light. Slack tide is not as productive as when the tide is running.
