Fishing's been my thing since I was a kid on Juno Pier in South Florida. Got my own boat, started exploring, then joined the Navy at 21 as an Aviation Electrician. Spent six awesome years in Hawaii - the fishing was nuts, and the views didn't hurt either.Now I'm in Jacksonville, and there's a fish with your name on it in and Salty Goat Fishing Company will help you catch it!
Depending on the time of year, you might hook into Red Snapper, King Mackerel (Kingfish), Cobia, Blackfin Tuna, Gray Triggerfish, Vermilion Snapper, Black Grouper, Gag Grouper, Red Grouper, Tarpon, Redfish, Sheepshead, and whatever else takes the bait. On these trips, it’s common to spot lock with the trolling motor, drift and bottom fish using light or heavy tackle.
Capt. Andrew believes in teaching kids to fish while they're young, so go ahead and bring the whole family along! Children must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board. Don't forget to bring snacks so that everyone stays happy and energized!
Capt. Andrew will bring you aboard a 26’ Seavee with capacity for 4 passengers. It comes with all the essentials. Your captain will provide rods and reels, along with lures. Live bait or dead bait is included, but be sure to ask about it so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.
The charter boat covers your fishing license, so you can drive right over and come aboard without any hassle! Be mindful that some species may have special rules or limited seasons. Simply ask and your captain can tell you more.
Some essentials to bring are sunblock (non-spray), a hat, bottled water, and sunglasses. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, so long as you avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Chris StumppRepeat angler5.0Verifiedfantastic trip!!!!!!
4 Hour Trip – Inshore/Nearshore on April 18, 2026 • 4 adultsWe got the four-hour trip started trying to catch some red drum and black drum. Things were a little slow at first, so the captain took us farther out to target some other species. We ended up catching so many snapper, sharks, and baitfish that I started saying, “Oh man, another big fish… that sucks!” Needless to say, it turned into a fantastic trip. The captain did everything he could to put us on fish, and it showed. We all had a great time and would 100% go back out with him again.
Steve NeziolRepeat angler5.0VerifiedNewNon Stop Tarpon & Redfish
4 Hour Trip – Inshore/Near (Noon) on September 5, 2026 • 1 adultCaptain Andrew is awesome. Hooked into a really nice Tarpon in under a minute of bait hitting the water. 100 pounder. caught 3 more and some really decent Bull Reds . Could have caught more but got wore out a bit . Boat clean and organized , high end fishing gear and Captain Andrew is very personable .
Brent Flaten5.0VerifiedAmazing Fishing Excursion with Andrew
4 Hour Trip – Inshore/Near (Noon) on December 28, 2025 • 3 adultsWe had an absolutely amazing fishing excursion with Andrew as our captain. From the moment we stepped on the boat, he was kind, helpful, and made everyone feel comfortable and excited for the day. His knowledge of the area and fishing techniques really showed, and his sense of humor kept the trip fun and relaxed the whole time. Andrew truly went above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience—and it paid off! We caught the most beautiful snappers and had an unforgettable time on the water. If you’re looking for a captain who knows his stuff and makes the trip memorable, Andrew is the one. Highly recommend!
Mitchell Pirozek5.0VerifiedSuper neat experience!
4 Hour Trip – Inshore/Nearshore on June 28, 2026 • 2 adultsWe were super stoked to go ocean fishing, and really wanted to catch sharks and big fish. After reading reviews, we knew we wanted to book! Boy oh boy were we on the sharks. While we didn’t get any in the boat, it was neat and thrilling! There were plenty of fish too, but the sharks got them pretty quick. Captain Andrew was great company, very knowledgeable, and the space was very clean. 10/10 will be booking with him again!
Susan Smith5.0VerifiedGreat day on the water!
4 Hour Trip – Inshore/Nearshore on August 1, 2026 • 4 adultsHad a great time! Communication from Captain Andrew was superb from booking through day of trip! Directions to boat were given, and we had a great time on the water! Brought our nephew from Chicago for his first time fishing. Caught plenty in the 4+ hours we were out there. Enjoyed Captain Andrew - an expert in all things fishing in NE Florida. We look forward to next time!

KILLER CATCHES
4 Hour shark fishing morning on June 27, 2026 • 4 adultsMy friends and I booked a 4 hours morning trip with Captain Drew and we had an awesome time. We caught over 10 big fish within just an hour of fishing. Some of our group was not so experienced with fishing, but Captain Drew was helpful, patient, and didn’t mind lending a hand or giving tips. We will definitely be coming back to fish with the Salty Goat and Captain Drew!
Andrew OdareRepeat angler5.0VerifiedFantastic day with Captain Andrew

Steve, thanks for the awesome review! Hope to get back on the water with you soon. Pleasure having you aboard. Cheers!
We went underway in good weather, but right as we got to the end of the waterway into the ocean the wind picked up, so we settled for fishing by a rock reef for a while. The wind picked up a lot and a storm began to blow in. This wasn't forecasted and Drew mentioned he'd have canceled had it been in the forecast. We headed back towards the dock and he offered to take us upstream to an inner-coastal waterway where there'd be less turbulence. We fished there for a while and got to boat back to the dock in an epic downpour. Was a fun 4 hours; we caught what he said was the 'biggest toad fish I've ever seen' and a bunch of small stuff. Drew gave us a catch from the morning so we didn't walk away empty handed, and it made for great fish tacos. 10/10 would do again.
Dylan super nice to meet yall. Sorry the conditions wernt playing nice for us. Come back next time and we will get on em!
