Action Jackson Sportfishing is located at Indian River Marina and offers to show you a memorable time in these waters.

Capt. Christopher 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, trolling, drift fishing, jigging, kite fishing, and spinning, depending on what you’re going after. As part of their 4 to 12-hour trips, you can target species like Flounder, Wahoo, Tilefish, Seabass, Dolphin, and Black Drum, depending on the current season and weather conditions.

You’ll be fishing from a 35’ Henriques boat with enough room for up to 6 anglers at any single time. It also includes a toilet and an ice box.

All the necessary fishing gear is included in the price of your trip. All that’s up to you is to use it as best you can. No need to worry about fishing licenses, as they will be provided and handled by the charter.

You’ll be able to keep any legal species caught during the trip. The captain and or mate will be working hard to keep your hooks baited and take the fish off your hook. Tips at then end of the day are customary and greatly appreciated for a days hard work.

This is a children-friendly charter, so you’re welcome to bring your kids on for a fun fishing adventure.

Book your trip now and hit the water with Action Jackson Sportfishing.

6 Hour Trip - Bottom Fishing on July 13, 2024

Weather was not good for our schedule trip. Captain Chris was very good at keeping us informed. He had to cancel our original trip do to weather reports. He was able to offer us the next day due to another cancelation. We were hoping for some flounder, but we caught so many sea bass, the action was none stop. The bonus was we hooked into 3 sandbar sharks. Even though they are protected we were able to get them to the boat and release them.. Highly recommend ACTION JACKSON Captain Chris and 1st Mate Zach. Will surely be booking with them next year.

8 Hour Trip – Flounder on July 17, 2024

Seas were to rough to make it out to our 20 mile destination for flounder and sea bass. Since we were in town for just the week we could not reschedule the trip. Instead of cancelling the trip the captain christopher did his best to accommodate the situation and put us on some shark fishing and inlet fishing. Zack, his first mate was an all around great guy. We definitely had a great trip highly recommend this outfit.

4 Hour - Half Day Trip (PM) on June 20, 2024

Great experience with Captain Chris and Zach. Sharks weren’t biting at first due to tidal change. Chris and Zach were patient, engaged the kids (14, 13 and 11) and sure enough as the tide changed in came the hungry sharks! We pulled in five which gave everyone a turn reeling them in. Even the youngest had a turn at the reel with Zach and Chris’s help. Great day on the water!

We did a 4 hour shark trip with Captain Chris today. It was a great time. The trip to start fishing was less than 15 minutes from the dock. We caught four sharks total with one being 10’ long. Chris and the first mate are super nice and know what they are doing. I would recommend them to anyone wanting to have a fun and relaxed day on the water.
