Maxed Out Charters 2
Booked with us before? You may qualify for a Loyalty Discount. Sign in to check.
I pickup at Fort Island boat ramp, as well as halfway crystal river ramp, Bird Creek Park boat ramp, and Mac Rae’s boat ramp. And of course at your dock, if you have one.
Crystal River has a fish with your name on it, so let Maxed Out Charters 2 help you catch it! With Captain Justin at the helm, you'll have a knowledgeable and experienced guide.
These waters are home to Snook, Sheepshead, Spanish Mackerel, Lane Snapper, Mangrove Snapper, Redfish, Bull Shark, Spotted Seatrout, and more, depending on when you go. Depending on the species you’re after, you may find yourself spinning, popping, trolling, drifting, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.
Capt. Justin welcomes children aboard, so get 'em offline and onto the water! If you don't have a child-sized life vest of your own, be sure to ask if there's one on board. And, you can't go wrong with snacks so that nobody gets cranky on an empty belly!
Your adventure begins aboard a 22' Skeeter bay boat that holds up to 6 passengers. It has all the essentials. You'll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you, as well as lures. Live bait is on offer, but be sure to ask about it so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.
There's no need to buy a fishing license, just show up ready for a good time! Be mindful that some species may have special rules or limited seasons. If you don't know what to expect, ask the captain.
It's always wise to bring sunscreen (non-spray), a hat, and sunglasses. Bottled water will be available for you. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just be sure to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.
Give yourself something to look forward to and book a trip with Maxed Out Charters 2!

Scott Stuck5.0VerifiedGreat fishing experience!
4 Hour Trip on December 28, 2025 • 4 adultsCaptain Justin showed his true professionalism and passion for fishing. During our charter, he was patient in teaching our family a first-time ocean experience, our teen boys learned new ways to cast and where to aim. The variety of fish we caught was outstanding and we were able to capture photos with each kind! Justin shared his profound knowledge of the sport when we asked which made the trip even better. A humble guide, who knows & loves fishing, patient, courteous, with an immaculate boat is more than we could ask for! He cleaned our keepers for us and we enjoyed a ‘cook your catch’ best-in-our-lifetime meal at a local restaurant the same night. The highlight of our trip, and memories our family will always have. Thank you Captain Justin! May God bless you with success no matter where your fishing boat may drift!
Kevin Oakes5.0VerifiedAwesome Time! Lots of Fish!
4 Hour Trip on April 3, 2026 • 4 adults • 2 childrenTwo Dads took our eleven year old sons on the 4 hour trip. We were staying on North Captiva, so Justin picked us up at Mainstay docks. We caught trout, spanish mackerel and red fish, among other fish. Enough keepers to have for dinner. Justin was great with the kids. Super patient and showed them a few different techniques to catch the different types of fish. Took us to several fishing spots. He definitely knows where the fish are! He also filleted the fish we kept once back at the docks. Would highly recommend! Awesome time!
Robert Goodwin5.0VerifiedWhat a great time!
4 Hour Trip on May 21, 2026 • 3 adults • 1 childJustin was a perfect guide and very knowledgeable. I took my oldest son and grandson on this trip and what a great time! Justin is a great captain and really worked well with my grandson on the fishing. Highly recommend him as a captain! We caught some good fish and we’ll be enjoying those tomorrow for dinner.😎
Will SchildtRepeat angler5.0VerifiedAnother Successful Trip
6 Hour Trip – Flexible Start Time on June 19, 2026 • 6 adultsThis is the second time I’ve been out with maxed out charters and it was another extremely successful trip. Billy and his son Justin are very professional, and personable, great people and very easy to fish off their boats.
Russell FloydRepeat angler5.0VerifiedGreat trip
4 Hour Trip on June 3, 2026 • 2 adultsWe wanted red drum and speckled trout to feed six adults, and Justin helped us to successfully get them in the boat. Thank you for the loyalty discount...it was one of the factors that helped us select Maxed Out Charters 2.
Tasha CampbellRepeat angler5.0VerifiedAMAZING HAUL!
4 Hour Trip on November 25, 2025 • 4 adults • 2 childrenWhat a great morning we had fishing in the waters with Captain Justin.. just off North Captiva, Captiva and Sanibel. Our family of four (seven and ten year olds) caught so many fish we literally lost count. We caught trout, snapper, sheepshead, grouper and a few other types. We really appreciated his patience with our children. Definitely would recommend!
Jim Karker5.0VerifiedGood Time
4 Hour Trip on February 16, 2026 • 2 adultsJustin was really good at working at getting us on fish. It was a little slow, but that’s fishing sometimes. He was entertaining and was very informative on the fishery along with answering any questions we threw at him. He also took his time cleaning fish. We will be booking him again. Thanks for a great time on the water.

Austin Gaudlip5.0VerifiedSpotted Trout Galore
4 Hour Trip - 1:30 PM on April 3, 2026 • 4 adultsWe went with Justin, and he was very patient and knew exactly where the fish would be. We caught probably 30 fish on a 4 hour trip and were able to keep enough spotted trout to feed our family of 10! Would recommend maxed out charter 2 for a great day!
