MacDaddy Charters is located in Palm Coast and offers to take you on an unforgettable fishing experience for everyone to enjoy!

Capt. Mac, a Florida native, is here to get you on some fish and to make sure you have fun doing it. You'll be using techniques like bottom fishing and trolling, depending on what you're going after. As part of their 4 to 10-hour trips, you can target species like King Mackerel, Cobia, Mahi Mahi, Snapper, Tuna, and Seabass, according to the type of trip, current season, and weather conditions.

You'll be fishing from a sea-worthy 23' Grady-White boat with enough room for up to 4 anglers. 5 passengers are possible, but contact the captain first. The vessel also includes a toilet and ice box. This classic Grady-White vessel was recently restored to live up to its legendary reputation of being among the best fishing boats out there.

The price of your trip includes all the rods, reels, and terminal tackle you'll need for a productive day on the water. The captain will supply all the needed fishing licenses for your trip, and you're welcome to keep all legal species caught during the trip.

Want to bring the rest of the family along for the ride? Captain Mac is known to be patient with kids and novice anglers, so feel free to make it a family adventure.

Book your trip now and hit the water with MacDaddy Offshore Charters!

Captain Macdaddy delivers. His knowledge, his skill and his customer service are all above and beyond. We had fish on the lines nearly the whole time. And…we were hoping for trigger fish and he delivered there too! Absolutely recommend. Thank you, Capt.

Half Day Trip AM (4 Hour) on September 18, 20252 adults
Captain Mac had great communication, we had to delay one day because of high seas. He texted us and called to confirm that the waves were too big on the day we scheduled and he was able to read a weather bouy to find the perfect time for the trip. The change worked out great! We went out to sea and started catching fish within minutes of bait the hooks. We probably wrangled in over 50 fish in just a few hours! Super fun. Captain was great helping us out with bait and unhooking too. We definitely enjoyed our first ocean fishing trip. Hopefully many more in the future.

Half Day Trip AM (4 Hour) on November 19, 20253 adults
Captain Mac was great. Weather was beautiful, got to the reef and he put us right on the fish. We caught a verity of fish, that the capt. filet and bagged for us. Communication was great. Weather was not ideal for the day we scheduled so he suggested to push the trip back a day and was a great call. Highly recommend.
