If you’re here to make the most of off-shore fishing in Port Canaveral, look no further than Flight Risk Fishing Charters. Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Michael Adkins is prepared to put you on fish.

Amberjack, Tuna, Bonito, Mahi Mahi, Goliath Grouper, Jack Crevalle, Kingfish, Blacktip Shark, Red Snapper, Sailfish, Tarpon, Wahoo, and more can be found in these waters, depending on the season. You can expect to do some light tackle fishing, trolling, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area. Any fish within the legal limit is yours to keep. Plus, you can have your catch cleaned. Now that’s dinner!

Your boat for the day is a 29’ Center console with room for 4 passengers. It comes with outriggers, downriggers, and all the essentials. Capt. Mike will supply rods and reels for you, along with lures. Live bait is on offer, but you should ask the captain whether you’ll be catching it yourself. The charter boat covers your fishing license, so all you have to do is look forward to your trip!

Young ones are welcome, so go ahead and bring the whole family along! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available. You can’t go wrong when you bring snacks, drinks, sunglasses, and sunscreen (non-spray). Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but avoid hard liquor and glass bottles. Some fish have special regulations, including when you can keep them. Your captain will help you follow regulations while you fish.

    Shark fishing trips are one of the most popular trips and the best “bang for your buck.” With Sharks ranging from 10 inches to 10 feet, you never know what will bite during this near-coast trip. Sometimes we get a big push of bait fish near the beach and buoys. These fish range from Kingfish, Tarpon, Jacks, and more. Inshore wreaks hold lots of different species to try and target. These are great trips for beginners and kids due to the short duration and ability to return to port if needed.

    On the 5-hour fishing trip the departure time can be adjusted to fit your schedule. Typically a half-day charter consists of fishing our closer wreaks and reefs but still 30+ miles if needed . The variety of fish or size is not affected by this trip. Thanks to our faster cruising speed, we have the ability to get to the spot with plenty of time to fish. You don’t have to run 50 miles out to catch the fish of a lifetime. These 5-hour trips are affordable and great for kids and families.

    A full day offers you the time and range to explore and have the best opportunity to catch the fish of a lifetime. With our 23-knot cruising speed, we have the ability to change our tactics and locations if needed. The ocean has no fences, so fish move and yesterday's success is never guaranteed. The range the full day gives you will greatly increase the opportunity to catch the big one

I'm Captain Mike Adkins. I began working on head boats while still in high school, became a full-time mate after graduating college in 2007, and eventually became a Captain in May 2008. I've run charter boats as captain/mate for over 15 years. I have lived and worked from Key West, FL, to North Carolina and everywhere in between, and spent 3 years only fishing in the southern Bahamas. I specialize in trolling, but I'm also an expert on various other techniques.
