Daze Off Fishing
Whether its hard-fighting pelagics or fun to catch inshore fish you’re after, Daze Off Fishing has got you covered! Located in Port Orange, on Florida’s productive east coast, this charter’s most valuable asset is its captain, Nick Amos. Capt. Nick is super passionate about the water and seasoned and novice anglers alike are bound to have an awesome experience.
Your vessel for the day is a spacious 34 ft’ Contender center console. She’s perfectly suited for 6 anglers, who can all fish at the same time, and is powered by twin 250 HP Yamaha engines that’ll have you zipping to all the best spots in no time.
If you’re after pelagics, you’ll find plenty of targets within 20 miles of the shore. You’ll troll for Mahi Mahi, Sailfish, and Wahoo as you head towards some of the most prominent artificial and natural reefs in Volusia county. Here you’ll find plenty of Snapper, Amberjack, and Barracuda. Opt to stay closer to shore and you’ll fill up that cooler with tasty Redfish, Sheepshead, and Black Drum!
All of your fishing gear, as well as snorkeling masks, will be waiting for you on board. You’re also free to bring along your own spearfishing equipment if you’re experienced. No need to pack a cooler, there’s plenty of ice storage on board where you can keep your drinks and snacks.
A friendly and professional first mate will be on board and if you’d like to show him your appreciation a 15-20% tip is customary. Capt. Nick is also happy to arrange pick up at a hotel on the way to the boat ramp if requested ahead of time.
So what are you waiting for? Hop aboard Daze Off Fishing for an action packed day in Port Orange!

8 Hour Trip – Offshore
8 hour trip with Daze off
Honest assessment. We had a great trip! I brought 3 kids (all teenagers) and my wife. Everyone caught fish, from small Amberjacks/Red Snapper to larger King Mackerel and topped it off with my two girls helping each other land a nice big shark :) We lost several other large ones, but hey, the fight was worth it! Bryan showed my son and daughters how to tie knots and hook up bait while there was a lull in fishing so they kept entertained! The crew cleaned our fish afterwards. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars was lack of communication before the trip and the $75 charge bringing my son last minute. The site isn't clear. I read 6 anglers. I didn't count the crew as anglers. Overall, now that we got it straightened out, I'd do it again next time we are in town :)

10 Hour Trip – Mahi Mahi
10 Hour Mahi Trip with Nick
Captain Nick and first mate Nick know their stuff. Despite less then ideal weather conditions we easily reached out destination and found the Mahi. We landed 1 (in pics) and had two others (one easily 40+ lbs) practically in the boat before they managed to slip away - both of which were just unavoidable strokes of bad luck. We also landed two barracuda. Not only does the captain and crew know their stuff, they were a blast to be around and made the trip that much more entertaining. 100% recommend.

full day 8 hr trip with captain a Nick
Captain Nick and his first mate Jimmy were amazing. They got us on some mahi right out of the gate. My 16 yr old son was able to real in a nice one. Then were able to catch a bunch fishing off the bottom. Wasn't able to get any huge fish in the boat, but were able to put some fish in the cooler and have a great time. We also were able to see a leatherback sea turtle, some dolphins, and a shark. Would definitely recommend these guys. They were very polite and helpful.

6 hour offshore trip with Captain Nick
This fishing trip was absolutely amazing. The boat was a great size for 6 people. The captain and first mate took care of each person to ensure we had a great trip. They were as excited as we were when we caught fish!! They took us where the fish were and we all caught fish. They helped to ensure each person had that SPECIAL treatment and experience! Thanks for taking special care of my 79 year old father. When a storm was coming in the captain kept us out of the rain as much as he could. We all were so amazed at the experience that we had. It was the most memorable day of our Florida vacation! Thank you Captain Nick and First Mate Dillon for treating us so well and making our day perfect. We will see you next year. Cannot wait to have another great day in the sea!
