Southwind Charters with Freddie Z
Southwind Charters with Freddie Z
Southwind Charters offers nearshore and offshore fishing trips out of New Smyrna Beach, Florida. With more than 20 years of experience under his belt, Captain Freddie knows how to make sure you have the ultimate offshore fishing experience. Feel free to bring your whole family and get ready for a day to remember.
You will be fishing aboard the Southwind, a custom-designed 41' Jersey Sportfisherman with a 450 HP Detroit Diesel engine that has it cruising a comfortable 20 knots. You needn't worry about being cramped on this boat as it has a large deck with three fighting chairs and plenty of space for up to six prospective anglers.
Due to the fact you'll be fishing out of Ponce Inlet, you can expect to pick from a multitude of fishing opportunities. The trips will take you up to 50 miles out, and the area is full of wrecks, reefs, ledges and artificial reefs that are perfect for bottom fishing. If you're more interested in trolling, you can find a great deal of pelagic fish out there such as King Mackerel, Mahi Mahi, Wahoo, and Sailfish, among others.
Captain Freddie will provide everything you can possibly need for a successful trip, which includes rods, reels, bait, tackle, and fishing licenses as well. Make sure to bring your sunglasses, as well as drinks and snacks if you're a fan, and leave the rest to Freddie. After the trip, the first mate will clean and fillet anything you catch for your convenience. Gratuity is expected and appreciated.

We had a great time, first mate Logan was super helpful. We were only out for an afternoon but caught lots of fish. Fought a big one for a while which was super exciting but the fish won in end. They cleaned and fileted the catch - We enjoyed a fried fish dinner from some of our catch there at the marina restaurant. Would definitely book Freddy again! Nice captain and crew!
im glad that yall enjoyed your day. hope to see you in the future.
We were lucky enough to book one of the two day red snapper season. After about an hr of catching bait we steamed off shore to structure that was full of life. It was lock and load fishing. Great job by crew. We limited out in a couple of hours. Couldn't ask for a better day. Freddy called me the night before asking if we could extend the trip knowing the fish were far offshore we took his advice and couldn't of asked for a better day. Highly recommend
I’m glad yall enjoyed your day. Look forward to seeing you in the future!
I would highly recommend the Southwind Captain Freddie and first mate Logan were perfect on putting us on fish and keeping our lines baited. Cleaned all of our fish at the end of the day. When we come back we will definitely be making reservations with these guys.
Great guys and boat. Full of knowledge and they genuinely want the members to enjoy the experience. Highly recommend.
I took my wife, boys ages 15 and 16, and my daughter age 9. It was our first family fishing trip. Captain Freddie and his mate (daughter) Shelby were hands on the moment we stepped aboard. Captain Freddie asked what we wanted to accomplish and what time we wanted to be home and made it all happen! Plenty of bait and great equipment was on board ready to be used. We got family photos we will cherish forever… I would highly recommend Captain Freddie Z!!
Truly enjoyed fishing with yall today. Enjoy your harvest and hope to see you soon!
