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.

Great time

Half Day Trip AM (4 Hour) on September 18, 2025 • 2 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.

Great Time!

Half Day Trip AM (4 Hour) on November 19, 2025 • 3 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.

Snapper caught!

Half Day Trip AM (4 Hour) on July 27, 2025 • 2 adults • 1 child

We all got keepers. Which is pretty good for a four hour trip. We probably caught 50 fish total. Lots of cut bait and throw backs. Fun time with my son. Adam was super nice and knowledgeable. Was able to put us on lots of action.

3/4 Day Trip (6 Hour) on March 23, 2025 • 2 adults • 1 child

This was our 8 year old grandsons first offshore trip. He said “it was the best day ever!” Caught plenty of fish including keepers for dinner. Capt. Mac was wonderful with my grandson, very knowledgeable and made the day very pleasant. Highly recommend for all ages and abilities.

Awesome time

Half Day Trip AM (4 Hour) on May 6, 2025 • 3 adults • 1 child

Took a few that hadn’t ever been. Fish were a little slow to bite kept going till we found a place. Right before leaving we snagged a shark and brought it to the side of boat. Hooked what we thought was another one but broke line. So much fun. Thank you
