Capt. Neal Goodrich – Fishing Frenzy will show you the time of your life on the waters of Oak Hill! Capt. Neal is a descendant of four generations of fishermen. He has lived near and fished on the Indian River and Mosquito Lagoon since he was 9 when he lived in the small village of Oak Hill.

He has made it his business to know where every sandbar, hole, ditch, and slue is so he can be better prepared to make your day more productive. He is a friend to the pelican, the dolphin, the manatee, and the turtle because you never know where your next hot tip is going to come from.

Fishing aboard a recently restored 19’ Polar flats boat powered by a brand new 90 HP Suzuki engine, Capt. Neal has the speed to get you to the fish. The boat can accommodate up to 4 anglers. It is equipped with everything you need for an inshore fishing trip, including a fishfinder, an ice-box, and a live bait tank. He also has an 18 ft. Huges with a 115 HP Suzuki.

When you book Captain Neal’s boat for a trip, you don’t have to worry about someone cutting in on your fun because the boat trip is dedicated to you, and only your party is on board. Children are always welcome on the captain’s boat and will have the time of their lives. If you’re not an early bird, the Captain can adjust the departure time to fit your schedule.

Whether you want to fish for Redfish, Snook, and Speckled Trout, or larger species such as Black Drum, Barracuda, and Tarpon, Capt. Neal has the experience needed to put you on the fish. He uses a variety of fishing techniques on his trips, including spinning, popping, and jigging. You’ll use both live bait and lures depending on your preference and the target species. Don’t forget tipping is always appreciated when you have a good time!

Join Capt. Neal Goodrich – Fishing Frenzy and have a fishing adventure of a lifetime under the Florida sun!

So much fun, lots of fish caught
3 Hour Trip - 9:00 AM on August 5, 20253 adults
Mostly trout today. Captain Neil was the best. Had a blast catching. We saw local wildlife including crab, manatee, dolphins. Boat ride was fun. We ate the catch after at Goodrich seafood which was outstandingly prepared including the sides. Highly recommend this experience. The whole family thoroughly enjoyed the excursion. It’s a trip to remember!

Best Day!
3 Hour Trip - 9:00 AM on March 27, 20252 adults2 children
We fished with our two boys, 11 and 4. Captain Neal was amazing. He was endlessly patient with my boys who talk non-stop. He answered all their questions and ours about the area. He was so helpful with baiting hooks and getting fish. We caught quite a few fish including 3 keepers. Our 11 year old says it was a day he will never forget. We all had the best time. We even saw manatee and dolphins. Plus it’s gorgeous on Indian River! Thanks again Captain Neal!!

2 Hour Trip - 12PM on March 26, 20252 adults2 children
We brought our boys, ages 6 and 8, fishing with Captain Neal today. He was patient and helpful with them, and they caught tons of fish! They caught a catfish, tons of pufferfish, and some trout, and my son even snagged a blue crab. We also had a manatee and dolphin come right up to our boat! Core memories made today! Thank you to Captain Neal for an amazing experience!

Great Morning For Trout
3 Hour Trip on May 25, 20251 adult1 child
Booked the trip on less than a two-day notice, and received a call from Neal within an hour. Everything went smooth. We asked to fish for trout and he took us to places where we pulled some trout to the boat. Kids loved the morning, and there was really nothing more we could have asked for. Great experience overall.

2 Hour Trip - 9:00 AM on April 17, 20253 adults
I was visiting Florida with my 16-year-old son from NY. Captain Neil was outstanding. He took us to about 10 different places to ensure we caught fish. He told us all about the area and answered all of our questions through out the charter. He even casted my line for me every single time! Awesome trip! I highly recommend!!
