Your vessel for the day is a 29' Glacier Bay center console that can carry up to 4 passengers. It comes with outriggers, downriggers, everything you need for a productive day on the water. Rods, reels, and tackle are included, along with lures. Live bait is on offer, but it's good to ask about this so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.
The charter boat covers your fishing license, so all you have to do is look forward to your trip! Keep in mind that you may release some fish due to regulations. Simply ask and your captain can tell you more.
A few items to bring include sunscreen (non-spray), a hat, bottled water, and sunglasses. If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.
Go ahead and treat yourself to a day on the water with Amelia Island Sport Fishing.

6 Hour Trip – Offshore
Capt. Billy was amazing. He knew exactly where to go immediately to catch some live bait. And took us to the jetties and instantly started to get bites. It was pretty choppy out that day but he made it comfortable for us and got us within the strike zone. Then after fishing that spot we headed a couple miles off shore and went shark fishing. Honestly it was the most fun I’ve had fishing ever he knew exactly where the sharks were and within seconds he had one hooked. Fortunately he was able to get all 4 of us a really good size shark and it will definitely live in our memories forever. Between cracking jokes and teaching us how to fish overall it was an experience I would recommend to everyone. By far the best fishing trip I’ve done and will definitely be coming back. And he was kind enough to fillet the shark that we caught and the flounder and trout.

Captain Billy was exceptional! So informative, fun, and very experienced! We caught so many fish! Hated to release many but Captain Billy really knows his stuff and follows the rules. We had a great time and can’t wait to go with Amelia Island Sport Fishing again!

Had an awesome day on the water with Captain Billy, we caught some nice bait and immediately started slamming fish. Our fourth fish on the boat in the first 45 minutes of fishing was our target fish! From there it was nonstop action! Would definitely recommend Captain Billy!
