The company offers a variety of fishing trips that will suit any angler's needs and specific wishes. You can stay in the calm waters of the inlet or venture up to 60 miles offshore, spend your day trolling or bottom fishing for whatever is in season – the opportunities are infinite!

The impressive list of your potential catches includes Spanish and King Mackerel, Barracuda, Little Tunny, Blacktip Sharks, Amberjack, Black Sea Bass, Red Snapper, Black Grouper, Gag Grouper, Spotted Sea Trout, Yellowfin Tuna, Blackfin Tuna, Wahoo, Mahi Mahi, Sailfish… and the list keeps going!

Fish Witch Charters operates a 42' Wilder Express Sportfisherman boat, fresh on the water in 2000. It comes powered by twin 370 Volvo Diesel engines and has plenty of fishing space for up to 6 anglers.

The boat is fully rigged with top-notch electronics and professional accessories to make a great catch possible. There is a toilet on board, along with an ice-box for the catch, a fighting chair, outriggers, and downriggers for a professional fishing experience. The only thing that's missing is you!

All trips come with the use of gear and tackle by Penn and Shimano, bait, lures, and licenses. The first mate will clean and bag your catch at a small fee of 50 cents per pound.

Fish Witch Always Delivers
12 Hour Trip – Bottom Fishing on May 18, 20266 adults
I cant recommend this crew enough. Shjon and Parker are incredible and put us on great fish all day. They are both extremely knowledgeable about the locations and tactics to put tons of fish in the boat. We caught a bunch of grouper, snapper, black sea bass, and amberjack thats going to keep my freezer full for months. This was our 4th trip with Fish Witch and there will definitely be more. Thank you guys for an amazing day of fishing!

Wife and daughters finally went fishing off shore
6 Hour Trolling on July 24, 20255 adults
Couldn’t ask for a better experience to take my wife and daughters off shore for their first journey. Boat size handles the waters better than many smaller boats seen on many charter sites. Captain Parker keeps a clean boat and knows the area and what he is doing. Trust what he says, we showed up thinking we would troll for 6 hours, he indicated trolling was slow and we should live bait off some wrecks. Best decision ever, my son and the ladies caught big fish. Captains mate Shawn should not be overlooked, he and Parker together make it all work. We will use them anytime we are wanting to charter.

Great Time Fishing!
8 Hour Trip – Trolling on July 13, 20252 adults
Booked an outing for my son and myself. Our original date was canceled due to rain and lightning so we came back a month later. Great weather and very good fishing. Caught 17 fish, Amberjack, Barracuda, Tuna, and a few others. Had a great time. We missed several fish, including a really nice one as we got hime within 20 yards of the boat when he got off. The crew was outstanding, especially Parker who kept our hook in the water and then cleaned our catch when we got back to the dock. Ship next to us came back and only had 4 fish between 5 guys. So we are VERY HAPPY with this charter!!!

Awesome Boat/Awesome Crew
12 - 13 Hour Trip – Gulfstream on June 7, 20256 adults
Our trip aboard the SS Fish Witch II was nothing short of amazing! From the moment we stepped on board, the crew made us feel welcome and prepared us for an unforgettable day on the water. The boat was clean, well-equipped, and clearly operated by experienced professionals who know how to find the fish. Captain Parker and the crew Shawn were knowledgeable, friendly, and constantly working to make sure we had the best possible experience. Their passion for fishing really showed, and they were more than happy to share tips and help everyone—from first-timers to seasoned anglers. We had non-stop action with multiple catches throughout the trip, including some barracuda and black fin tuna! The crew handled everything with skill and made sure we were safe, comfortable, and having a blast the whole time. They even cut and cleaned the fish when we got back! Whether you’re looking to land the big one or just enjoy a day out at sea, SS Fish Witch II is the boat to book. Can’t recommend it enough—we’ll definitely be back for another trip soon!
