Chase fish, enjoy the water, and have loads of fun together with Attitude Adjustment. Join Captain Eric Metcalf and experience the various and rich waters of Florida. Starting out of Melbourne Beach, the captain can take you to the river, flats, backcountry, or nearshore to cast your line – the choice is yours. Wherever you go, he’ll make sure you have a safe, enjoyable, and productive fishing experience.

Your adventure will take place on a completely restored 25’ Ana Capri center console. Powered by a new 300hp Suzuki. It also
uses all the modern GPS, fishfinder, and radio technology for efficient and safe navigation. It also comes with a wireless trolling motor and a livewell to give you that exra edge.

The species you and the captain will chase include Goliath Grouper, Jack Crevalle, Tarpon, Snook, Bonito, and Tripletail. In order to attract them, you’ll be using light tackle mostly with live bait. If you want, the fish you catch can stay with you to take it home and enjoy with your friends and family.

Capt. Eric will provide you with all the rods, reels, tackle, and live bait you’ll for the trip. He also covers you for fishing licenses and offers free fish cleaning at the end of the trip. You should just bring some snacks and drinks before you depart.
