You’ll be traveling to the hotspots on board your captain’s 26’ Parker offshore fishing vessel.

Capt. Matt and his crew pride themselves on offering angling adventures that are, above all, family-friendly. You aren’t just limited to cruising inshore waters, either: Newer anglers and little ones will have the chance to hook anything from tasty nearshore Snapper, Grouper, and Mackerel species to Cobia and huge Mahi Mahi. Closer to shore, you’ll find tasty Flounder, Triggerfish, Mangrove Snapper, and whatever else is biting.
Your captain will make sure you’re decked out with top-quality rods and reels, as well as bait, tackle, and your fishing license. Come aboard 850 Charters for a day full of family, friends, fish, and, most importantly, fun!
