Hey there, fellow anglers! Ready to get your fish on in the sparkling waters off Daytona Beach?

We'll be cruising around Ponce Inlet, where the fish are always biting and the views are postcard-perfect. Whether you're after a cooler full of tasty catches or the heart-pounding thrill of battling a shark, we've got you covered. So grab your shades and let's hit the water for a fishing adventure you won't forget!

What's the Deal on Deck?

Picture this: You're out on the boat, rod in hand, with the salty breeze in your hair and the Daytona coastline as your backdrop. Our 4-hour trip gives you plenty of time to get your sea legs and land some impressive catches. We'll start by targeting the inshore honey holes, where redfish and trout love to hang out. Then, if conditions are right, we'll venture a bit further out for some nearshore action. That's where the real excitement kicks in – we're talking king mackerel that'll make your reel sing and maybe even a shark encounter that'll get your heart racing. Don't worry if you're new to fishing; our crew knows these waters like the back of their hand and will have you casting like a pro in no time.

Hooks, Lines, and Sinkers

We've got all the gear you need to land the big one, from top-notch rods and reels to the freshest bait. For our inshore fishing, we'll be using light tackle and live bait to entice those wary redfish and speckled trout. When we head nearshore, we'll switch it up with some heavier gear. We might do some trolling for kings, using flashy lures that mimic their favorite baitfish. And if we're shark fishing, get ready for some serious hardware – we're talking heavy-duty rods and steel leaders that can handle those toothy critters. Our captain will walk you through each technique, so you'll be jigging, casting, and reeling like a champ in no time.

Fish Tales from the Deck

Our trips are all about making memories and trust us, you'll have plenty of stories to tell. From the first-timer who landed a monster red to the seasoned angler who finally caught their bucket-list shark, every trip is an adventure. We love seeing families bond over their catches, friends compete for the biggest fish, and solo anglers find their zen on the water. By the end of the day, you'll be swapping fish tales and planning your next trip before we even hit the dock.

The Usual Suspects: Our Target Species

King Mackerel: These speedsters are the drag-screamers of the nearshore waters. Known for their blistering runs and acrobatic leaps, king mackerel are a favorite among anglers looking for a fight. Spring and fall are prime times to catch these silver missiles, and they can grow up to 5 feet long. When one hits your line, hold on tight – it's going to be a wild ride!

Atlantic Bonito: Don't let their size fool you; these little powerhouses pack a punch. Bonito are like mini tunas, built for speed and endurance. They travel in schools, so when you find them, the action can be non-stop. These guys are most active in the cooler months and are a blast on light tackle. Plus, they make for some killer sushi if you're into that!

Blacknose Shark: These sleek predators are the perfect intro to shark fishing. Averaging around 4 feet, blacknose sharks are manageable for most anglers but still give you that shark-fishing thrill. They're curious and quick, often the first to investigate your bait. You'll find them year-round, but summer is prime time. Landing one of these beauties is sure to get your adrenaline pumping!

Crevalle Jack: If you're looking for a workout, jacks are your fish. These bruisers are pound-for-pound some of the hardest fighting fish in the sea. They hunt in schools, so when you hook one, be ready for more. Jacks are most active in the warmer months and can be found both inshore and nearshore. Their powerful runs will test your arms and your gear, making for an unforgettable battle.

Bull Shark: Now we're talking serious business. Bull sharks are the heavyweights of our nearshore waters, growing up to 8 feet long. These apex predators are known for their aggression and power, making them a top target for thrill-seeking anglers. We typically encounter them in the warmer months, and landing one is a true test of skill and strength. It's catch-and-release for these big boys, but the photos and bragging rights are all yours!
