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.

4 Hour - Half Day Trip (AM) on July 10, 20252 adults2 children
Came here on vacation ans had zero expectations to actually catch fish..Had to reschedule due to weather with no issues. We caught 6 macks, 13 blues and 3 ribbons. Excellent experience! Will book again next year if my younger son agrees he can deal with Sea sickness. Highly recommend

Fantastic experience for families and novice anglers
4 Hour - Half Day Trip (AM) on July 6, 20256 adults
The boat is great, not fancy but solid and comfortable. Cpt. Chris and Anthony made my family-2 kids 17 & 13-feel comfortable on their first ocean fishing charter and we caught a ton of fish! In 4 hours we caught a cobia, blues, small tuna and a ton of mackerel. Could not have asked for a better experience.
