Based out of New Smyrna Beach, Reef Wrecker Fishing Charters is your ticket to a memorable time on the water.

Come on aboard with Capt. John, whose main priority is to get you on some fish. Expect to use techniques like light tackle, heavy tackle, bottom fishing, trolling, big game fishing, drift fishing, jigging, and spinning, based on the species you’re targeting. Speaking of which, you have the option of 3 to 12-hour trips, where you’ll be fishing for the likes of Redfish, Snook, Snapper, Cobia, King Mackerel, and Sharks, depending on the specific season and the day’s weather.

You’ll be fishing from a 25’ Ken Craft boat with enough room for up to 6 anglers at any single time. It also includes an ice box.

All rods, reels, and terminal tackle are included in the price so you can focus on what really matters, fishing.

Your trip will include all the necessary fishing licenses for the day.

You can keep anything you catch, as long as it’s legal to do so.

You’ll find free snacks and drinks on the boat for your convenience, but you’re always welcome to pack your own drinks and snacks should you want to.

Children are welcome aboard so you’re good to get the young ones started early.

Book your trip now and hit the water with Reef Wrecker Fishing Charters.

Reef Wrecker Charters and Captain John are Awesome!
4 Hour Trip – Inshore on February 9, 20254 adults
The captain was super friendly and upgraded us to an offshore trip after asking if we would be interested. We were, of course! He took our family out and put us on some starter fish to get us started catching fish. My wife hooked hers before I even got mine in the water. We caught quite a few of these small fish to wet our appetite and then he drove us to a different spot to hit some red snapper. Let’s just say, this was awesome! My son totally outclassed me and caught a couple monsters, a good midsized and some small ones. And the small ones were probably in the 8-10lb range. We also spotted a sunfish basking in the water so the captain brought us over to photograph it and then we went back to fishing. He knows the waters and knows where the fish are! I’d happily recommend him and Reef Wreckers any time!

Excellent day of fishing. After having a booking cancelled by a different charter last minute I found Reef Wreckers. John made sure everything was in order and communicated well on the plans. Caught plenty of fish and he was good with the kids. Only thing I’ll do different next time is skip Fishing Booker and go straight through him.

Awesome trip with Captain John!
6 Hour Trip – Offshore (AM) on July 12, 20234 adults2 children
We all had a great time aboard the Reef Wrecker with Captain John! He was great with our two younger children and happily answered their many questions. We thoroughly enjoyed our time aboard and were able to pull in some great fish. The captain is very knowledgeable about the area and got us on fish pretty quickly. Add to that, he’s just a genuinely nice guy and very easy to talk to, making us all feel welcome. We will definitely be booking with him again on our next trip to the area!
