There is no better time to book a trip with Catch of the Day. Captain Josh Grau has been on the water most of his life and is looking forward to sharing his passion for it with you and your group.

Hop on board his 31’ Morgan boat, recently restored in 2018. This boat will ensure you have a comfortable trip, as it was designed to be fantastic in all weather conditions. There is a spacious back deck that has all the room you need to land the fish of your dreams. You can enjoy a break from the Florida sun in the spacious air conditioned wheel house.

Powered by a 450 HP Cummins engine, you’ll be at the fishing grounds before you know it. The deep waters and great fish are only 6 miles out. On this trip, you’ll have the opportunity to help catch the live bait, giving you a well-rounded fishing experience. The fishfinder will give you that extra edge out on the water too.

Species on the menu are diverse and include Mahi Mahi, Yellowfin Tuna, Sailfish, Vermillion Snapper, Gag Grouper, Amberjack, Cobia, and more. After your trip, the captain will happily fillet your haul after the trip – you’ll only have to decide how to cook them once home!

Included in the price are top quality rods and reels – these won’t let you down when reeling in your catch, whether this is your first ever fish or your hundredth. Even your fishing license is provided. Feel free to bring along your own snacks and drinks – you’ll need to keep the energy up.

If you wish to spearfish on these trips, please let the captain know before the day. This can be arranged for experienced spearos only.

Book now with Catch of the Day for an unforgettable trip that will leave you the envy of all your friends. Capt. Josh is looking forward to sharing his passion with you.

Captain Joshua Grau has been a verified captain since 2017 but has been operating small boats for many years. Some of his proudest catches include a 400 lb Mako and a 200 lb Yellowfin Tuna. Capt. Grau loves the ocean and being on the water. One of the best parts of the job is taking customers out and seeing smiles on their faces when they are reeling in a fish. He looks forward to welcoming you aboard.
