Capt. Justin aims to tailor every trip to your specific needs, so let him know what you’re after! Depending on the trip and species, you’ll be using techniques like bottom fishing, and trolling. You’re looking at 8-hour trips, where you’ll usually go after the likes of Dolphin, King Mackerel, Sheepshead, Snapper, Wahoo, and Grouper, depending on the weather and time of year. Deep drop trips include Golden & Blue Line Tile and Yellow Edge Grouper.
Your adventure begins on board a 33’ Hydra-Sports boat that can fit a maximum of 6 anglers. The boat is fitted with a toilet, and a wireless trolling motor.
3 2023 Suzuki motors, EPIRB, live well, on board cooler and USCG life Preservers. Also is equipped with a Seakeeper which helps with motion of the boat during higher seas. This into helps with sea sickness.

Wonderful Fishing Trip with Captain Justin
We had an incredible experience with Bottoms Up fishing in Vero. Captain Justin was extremely professional and knowledgeable. Because of bad weather we moved from nearshore fishing to fishing the intercoastal, but Justin gave us a heads up the day before. He immediately put us on fish and we caught plenty throughout the trip and went home with 5 pounds of fish fillets. Captain Justin was patient, knowledgeable and taught us fishing techniques. Highly recommend for a great experience!!!

Great charter
Justin and his crew were fantastic. This was my teenage son’s first charter trip, and we had a blast. We put 4 kingfish over 30 lbs in the boat, plus a fantastic mahi that literally fed my family of five this evening for dinner. The gear was perfect, the bite was hot, and the crew was knowledgeable. I highly recommend this charter if you’re looking to catch fish and have a good time.

Capt Justin Is Amazing
Captain Justin is a true fisherman and human as well. He’s a great guy to bring you out fishing and knows all the ins and outs of the fish you’re after. Will definitely be booking again in the future and helped us cross off some fish we had on our list. Thank you again for a great day on the water Captain Justin.

Absolutely the best!
Only 15 minutes in and we caught our first fish. Captain Justin and Jarrett were very knowledgeable and funny so it was a great trip. We caught so much (mahi, cobia and king fish) that we ended up having a bunch of neighbors over for a dinner party just to put a dent into it. We will only go out with Bottoms Up now…you should too.
