Spend a day on the water and enjoy a fishing trip full of fun together with Central Florida Fishing Charters. You and Captain Jordan will hit the lovely inshore and offshore waters of New Smyrna Beach, Florida and have a great time chasing a host of interesting fish species and watching the beautiful surroundings. Pick your day and embark on your next fishing adventure on first-class Florida grounds!

Your trip will start on a restored 32' Stamas center console that runs on twin 250 HP Yamaha engines and can carry up to 6 guests. The boat uses GPS, fishfinder, radio, as well as radar electronics for efficient navigation and is equipped with outriggers and a livewell. It also features a multimedia system and an ice-box. A first mate will join your trip to make the onboard service even better.(please tip first mate)

The species you can go after include Mahi Mahi, Goliath Grouper, Sailfish, Great White shark, Red Snapper, and more (ask your captain what's the best trip to book to target certain species of fish) You'll attract your prey by bottom and deep sea fishing, trolling, spinning, jigging, and drift fishing, using both light and heavy tackle. Kids are welcome to join your trip (and children under the age of 12 must wear a life jacket at all times per coast guard regulations) and you're free to keep the fish you catch and take it home if you want to. (As long as if they are in season to harvest)

Captain Jordan will supply you with all the tackle, bait, water, as well as fishing licenses. Just bring your favorite snacks and drinks before you depart. The captain will also clean and fillet your catch and would be grateful if you tipped the first mate.

Let Central Florida Fishing Charters take you on a memorable fishing trip and have a great time in New Smyrna Beach! 6-10 hour trips are recommended right now please ask your captain which is the best trip for you and what fish you are wanting to target!

Best fishing charter I have ever been on!!!

5 Hour Trip (PM) on April 1, 2026 • 2 adults • 2 children

Captain Jordan and his first mate Connor went above and beyond to make sure myself and my 3 boys had the best fishing trip ever!   Captain Jordan's knowledge of the area and the ocean was above and beyond what we expected and showed great patients with my 2 younger boys who are not experienced fisherman!  He got us out and on fish right away and kept us on them the whole trip!  It created such a special memory for my boys and I.  I would highly reccomend Captain Jordan for your next fishing adventure!!

Fishing trip 2025 in late July.

4 Hour Trip (AM) on July 31, 2025 • 1 adult • 1 child

My 11yr old son and I went in a fishing with captain Jordan and deck hand, Allen, and had an amazing time! They were so professional, informative, and helpful that it made for such a great experience. We have fished ponds and such but nothing like this and they were on it and helped us the whole way. We caught several different fish but the most impressive was when my son caught 2 sharks! They were really difficult to pull in but bc of their guidance, he was able to do it and it was so excited. I think he’ll remember this experience forever. If you’re looking for a fun fishing trip with kids or not, I’d definitely suggest doing this one. You won’t regret it!

Great trip

5 Hour Trip (AM) on June 8, 2026 • 3 adults • 2 children

Captain Jordan and connar are great! If you’re looking for a captain who knows where the fish are and works hard to make your trip successful, Captain Jordan and Connor are the real deal. Highly recommend booking a trip with them we’ll definitely be back!

Caught lots of fish!

5 Hour Trip (AM) on February 14, 2026 • 2 adults • 1 child

Captain was very responsive. There was a technology glitch that told us 7am and him 8am (we compared phones!) but he pivoted fast and we were on the water by 730. We started putting fish in the boat as soon as we got to the first spot. We ended up with so many fish we just started catch and release. If your looking for luxury and the finest of everything look somewhere else but if you are looking to have a good captain and catch a lot of fish this could be the trip for you.
