    What a great day on the water!

    Half Day Trip (AM) on July 26, 2026 • 2 adults

    We had such a good time with Captain Bradley, he was super courteous, professional, above all he put us in the fish big time, I lost count of how many slot redfish we caught and put at least 7 species in the boat. Captain Bradley was great and you can tell that he truly loves what he does. I would recommend anyone to go out with him 100% and we will definitely do it again on our next trip to Northeast Florida!

    Great Captain! Fantastic Trip!

    3 Hour Trip – Bridge Fishing on June 29, 2025 • 4 adults • 2 children

    Captain Bradley Smith at Red Augustine Fishing was terrific! We did the 6pm evening fishing by the bridge & it was great. My kids (9 & 11) loved it! We caught 9 fish, including flounder, whiting, catfish, and even a bonnethead shark! Great experience!

    Half day fishing and Night of Lights

    Half Day Trip (AM) on December 29, 2023

    I’ve booked a few charters with Cpt Bradley. He was super knowledgeable about the area and proved it by the fish we caught. He is my go to Cpt when I have friends in town. We also booked him for the Night of lights. I won’t see them any other way what a great night! He brought blankets and made sure we got to see a great sunset. Super great Cpt. Thanks Bradley see you soon

    Half day and a lifetime of memories with Capt. Brad

    Half Day Trip (AM) on December 26, 2023

    Booked a half day with Capt Brad and even in the super cold Temperatures he put us on the money. Me and my son had a great day competing on who could catch the best fish / most fish so on. Captain Brad had great tips for the kid so he didn’t lose the fish. Probably the best charter I’ve ever been on.

    Awesome day out with Captain Bradley

    Nearshore bottom fishing on June 24, 2026 • 4 adults

    Had a great time out on a nearshore trip with Captain Bradley. He was prepared with plenty of bait, good tackle, and ice cold water for everyone. He was very knowledgeable and put us on a ton of fish. Big red snapper, mangrove snapper, amberjack, and Gag grouper. All in all it was an awesome trip out, and Captain Bradley is a great dude, highly reccomend.

Captain Bradley is a St. Augustine native who has grown up fishing the waters here in St. Johns County. After many years of fellow friends and family encouraging me to obtain my captain's license, to live out my dream of becoming a Charter Captain, I did just that! I enjoy taking people out, and teaching them how to fish. My love is Redfish, hearing the rod zig off, and feeling their heads shake the tight line as you reel them in, is no better feeling! If you are interested in having a great time and want some of the best saltwater therapy, book with Captain Bradley today, you won't regret it! Based out of St. Augustine, the main focus is Redfish, Trout, Black Drum, Mangrove Snapper, and Flounder. Depending on the time of year will determine the season for certain species. Any fish meeting the FWC regulations may be kept. The Charter covers up to four people on the boat. Red Augustine Fishing Charters was established in August of 2022 and specializes in inshore charters. This is a kid-friendly charter! Captain Bradley operates out of an 18-foot McKee Craft boat with GPS Navigation and Minn Kota Trolling Motor. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact me, I am happy to answer any questions!
