These are quick trips for families with young anglers or for those that want a fun intro into fishing. We fish in the calm waters of the port and inside the Canaveral shoal.
We keep the action going with quick bites and fights from a variety of fish. Mostly fish such as bluefish, whiting, croakers, ladyfish, jack crevalle, sheepshead and other smaller yet fun fish. We occasionally get sharks, snook, goliaths or even a tarpon. We also see dolphins, sea turtles and a lot of other wildlife on every trip. You can keep what you catch or just take photos and release.
This is not a trip where the focus is on fish to keep. The focus is on having fun! Most of the time due to seasons & regulations there are very few keepers and as we enter winter months we catch more species that we are able to keep.
You can have up to 6 people but if its all adults that is pretty cramped. We suggest that if you have 6 then hopefully you have some little ones in the mix. The boat has a enclosed toilet so you don't have to worry about those pesky pee breaks.
Everything you need to have a few hours of pure fun.

Chasittie Dean5.0Verifiedmy four year old had a blast!
3 Hour Trip – Family Fun - 11:00 AM on July 15, 2026 • 6 adults • 1 childWe had an amazing time on our fishing charter with Captain Mike! He was incredibly patient and great with my son, making sure we had a fun and memorable experience from start to finish. We ended up catching two 5-foot sharks, along with a bunch of other awesome fish, which made for an unforgettable day on the water. Captain Mike was knowledgeable, friendly, and worked hard to put us on the fish. If you're looking for a great charter, especially for families with young kids, I highly recommend Captain Mike. We'll definitely be back!
