At Florida Fish and Kayak, our goal is to provide you with a safe and unforgettable time fishing on one of Florida's amazing waterways .

If there is a trip or time that you don't see available contact us and we will work hard to custom create something that works for you.

For fresh water trips we fish one of the many amazing spring fed rivers here in central Florida. When you book this trip you will be amazed as we pole through Amazon-like forest casting for Bass and Panfish!

For inshore saltwater fishing we target Redfish, Snook, and Tarpon in through out the Indian River Basin and Mosquito Lagoon. In order to fish in extremely shallow water we operate out of a 2 person boat that can travel across the various sand and grass flats.

A client can choose from light tackle or fly fishing and all equipment is provided for on the trip if needed. Any level of experience is acceptable and we can teach fly fishing techniques if desired.

We look forward to fishing with you on your next adventure!
