Family Ties Charters
Family Ties Charters is a "family" first company. We specialize in nearshore and offshore adventures for the most exciting fish species around. Join Capt. Barry on your next vacation and have a fun day out on the water. Unfortunately, we do not have the ability to clean your catch. All fish are taken home whole.
Spend your morning checking the bite nearshore or spend your whole day battling big fish up to 35 miles offshore. Hardcore anglers to novice fishermen, everyone is welcome to join in the adventure.
The ‘Family Ties’ is a 26’ ProKat boat. She was built in 2008 and has plenty of space for up to 4 to 6 anglers. The Family Ties comes powered by twin **hidden content**hp Suzuki 4 Strokes engines and can cruise at 30 knots. She is fully rigged with electronics and professional accessories to aid your search for the fish.
Your day with Family Ties Charters will see you slow trolling for Pelagics, along with bottom fishing and fast trolling. Live bait fishing is also possible when the conditions allow.
You will be targeting Bonito, Spanish Mackerel, Kingfish, Bluefish, False Albacore, Amberjack, Barracuda, Grouper, Black Seabass, Snapper, and Mahi Mahi if you don’t want to go too far out. If you are up to a challenge, the list of your potential catches will also include Sailfish.
All you have to do is bring your family with you and hop on board. All rods, reels, tackle, lures, and licenses will be provided by the captain. Fish cleaning is not included.

Had the most epic experience with Barry and my crew. Barry is a solid captain who is humble, knowledgeable, and incredibly respurceful. We caught a 33 lb King Mackerel and a 4.7 lb Spanish Mackerel!
Captain Barry made a huge effort to insure a safe, fun and successful trip for all of us! We highly recommend him for an excellent charter!
My friends and I had a great time on our trip. Captain Barry is very knowledgeable and patient, couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Will definitely be booking another charter.

Morning started off without a hitch Captain was ready to go. He had us on fish early on we caught probably 30 or so. For my boys first time charter it was perfect. Plenty of action captain was easy going and relatable. He is a 2nd generation captain and he knows these waters very well.
Barry Bierstedt is a second generation captain and fisherman. He began fishing offshore at a young age of 6 and tried commercial fishing at 8. Barry was introduced to charter fishing by his father and has never looked back. Fishing is not only his great passion; it's a way of life. Barry loves the waters and sharing his knowledge with others.
