A day on the water with Southern Mayhem Fishing Charters has endless opportunities. Depending on the season, weather conditions, and what species you would like to focus on targeting, Captain Cheyne can put you on fish from up to five miles out of Port Canaveral to deep in the Thousand Islands area of Cocoa Beach.
One of the things that is unique about this charter service is the versatility in locations to fish. Places you can go fishing include the Indian River Lagoon, Banana River Lagoon, Sebastian Inlet, Port Canaveral, and the beaches in between.
Here in the Space Coast, each season presents new and exciting opportunities. It's great to pitch live and artificial baits under mangroves, docks, and other structures within the river. This tactic typically provides trophy Snook, Redfish, Trout, and Tarpon year round. This way of fishing also comes with the excitement of the unknown. You never know when a huge Snook or Redfish is going to come blowing out of a mangrove, and explode on your bait!
In the wintertime and springtime, the water quality in both lagoons typically improves, which allows for some exciting sight fishing for monster reds in the Cocoa Beach area. Sight fish Tripletail and Cobia, or go after Snook.
With Southern Mayhem Fishing Charters, something's always biting. The only question is - when are you coming?

extremely knowledgeable, and adaptable to the conditions. Changed the location knowing the fish were further south then where we had initially plan to launch. gave us a great opportunity to catch a big snook, but unfortunately lost it on my part. After they stopped biting he switched gears and put us on some nice size Redfish. He also went out before we got there to catch bait fish, so we could spend more time fishing. Great time overall!

Captain Cheyne took us to a number of spots for our 4 hour trip and we had some action at every location. Very knowledgeable about the area. My almost 11 year old son is new to fishing and had a blast!
such a great experience with the family. we caught Snook, Redfish,Trout and crazy Catfish. Captain Cheyne took us to multiple locations and we caught fish at all of them. Captain Cheyne baited every line and untangled every line without hesitation. Be ready the Captain will put you on fish in no time at all…
Had a great time on the water. Captain was extremely helpful & put us on fish. Definitely would recommend this trip. Looking forward to going again in the future.
This was our first fishing charter and it was a great time. The captain was great with the boys, who were 10 and 11, as well as the adults. Everyone caught several fish. The boat was clean and the equipment was high tech. If a line was broken or tangled the captain would fix it quickly. He was prepared for anything. It was a great day and we wouldn’t change a thing. We’d love to go again!
The Angler's Choice Award is given to listings that consistently deliver a high-quality service and earn great reviews from customers.
Being born and raised near the great waters of Cocoa Beach, I have always had a burning passion for fishing and spending my time on the water. I started at a young age riding bikes around my local neighborhoods in search of catching that prized fish. This search became a fascination for me that only grew bigger and bigger as I aged. Most of my fishing experience has been in the Indian River Lagoon and in the Banana River, as well as fishing offshore out of Port Canaveral for pelagic species. Spending so much time on these waters has taught me how to pickup on patterns and really understand how to target trophy fish such as Snook, Tarpon, Redfish, and Trout. I have spent years learning how to fish these local waterways and it has been a dream of mine to pass this knowledge along to the next generation of young anglers.
