Whether you're looking for a relaxing day of freshwater fishing or an inshore adventure off the Atlantic coast of Florida, New Smyrna Fishing Charters has got you covered. Captain Steve is a USCG licensed captain and Florida native with 2 decades of experience as a charter operator. No matter what, you'll be accommodated based on your preferences and you'll have an expert at the helm each step of the way.

You'll set off on a 22' center console boat, ideal for fishing inshore waters, inlets, rivers, and lagoons. The boat comes with a GPS and fishfinder to help you navigate the productive fishing grounds off the coast, as well as along the rivers you'll be fishing from. She can accommodate up to 4 people and kids ages 3 and older are welcome to join.

Known for its productive waters, New Smyrna hosts a diversity of both freshwater and saltwater species. On freshwater trips, you'll have a chance to explore the St. Johns River and target Crappie, Largemouth Bass, Trout, and more. These trips are relaxing, fun, and perfect for families with kids!

On saltwater trips, you'll drift along the inshore waters of Ponce de Leon Inlet, the Indian River, or Mosquito Lagoon. These waters produce trophy species such as Snook, Flounder, Tarpon, Bull Redfish, and Blacktip Shark, making them perfect for thrill-seekers looking to battle big fish.

You'll be provided with state-of-the-art gear and tackle, as well as a fishing license (for saltwater trips only). Capt. Steve will also offer to clean and fillet your catch on saltwater trips, but not on freshwater trips because Alligators tend to congregate around docks and are attracted to the smell of gutted fish.

Be sure to pack light clothing, sunblock, snacks, and drinks, and get ready for an unforgettable adventure with New Smyrna Fishing Charters! Whether you're an experienced angler or just getting started, Capt. Steve will show you a good time and put you on some of the biggest trophy fish you've ever seen.

Capt. Steve Made It a Trip to Remember!
on April 8, 2025
Went out with Capt. Steve Niemoeller and had an unforgettable time on the water. From the start, he was dialed in—explaining the plan, setting us up with quality gear, and getting us to productive spots quickly. We caught a solid mix of species, and he was full of tips that actually helped us land more fish. His knowledge of the New Smyrna area really stood out. Super professional, but easygoing and fun the whole time. Highly recommend him if you’re looking for a memorable fishing experience.

We had an awesome day on the water. Captain Eric is extremely experienced and educational. We moved to several spots looking for the big fish. He has lots of tricks up his sleeve including the “double shrimper”.
