Head off on an exciting fishing adventure in Jacksonville Beach with 'El Cazador Fishing Charters'! Anglers of all skill levels are in for a memorable day on the water with Captain Wayne Senteno. Fishing comes naturally to him and he's been in these waters for as long as he can remember.

Enjoy a smooth ride aboard his 24' Pathfinder bay boat, ideal for 4 anglers who all want to fish at the same time. The T-top provides shade from the Florida sun and there's a lookout tower for elevated sight fishing. Power up the wireless trolling to sneak up on those easily spooked inshore fish and entice their bite with bait kept fresh in the live well.

You'll navigate the St. John's River and inshore waterways within 10 miles to target the likes of Trout, Flounder, Redfish, and Sheepshead. On longer trips, you'll head further out to hook the likes of Cobia, Kingfish, and Red Snapper!

There's something for everyone, whether your goal is stocking the cooler or battling it out with something fun-to-catch! Capt. Wayne is happy to clean and fillet your keepers at the end of the trip. He'll also provide all the necessary fishing equipment you need for a successful day.

There's bottled water in the cooler already and you're free to bring any other drinks and snacks you'd like. What are you waiting for? Hop aboard El Cazador Fishing Charters and cast your line in the rich Florida waters!

    Captain Wayne knows his stuff!

    Half Day Trip (AM) on January 18, 2025 • 5 adults

    Wayne is incredibly knowledgeable of the area, taking us to hidden gems where we immediately started hooking redfish. He was quickly responsive to any questions we had when planning the trip, and once on the boat, a fantastic source of knowledge and practical advice making our trip truly memorable. If you’re looking for a true local, with a ton of knowledge and a great attitude, Captain Wayne is your guy!

    Captain Wayne is phenomenal! I highly recommend booking with him! My family and I had an amazing experience. His patience, knowledge, and enthusiasm to keep fishing was great! It was a beautiful day. We will definitely be booking again. Captain Wayne provides a comfortable environment for those that are not experts in fishing. That is much appreciated!
