Jacksonville, FL Charter Captain – Inshore & Offshore Fishing Adventures.

I’m a U.S. Coast Guard-licensed charter captain based in Jacksonville, Florida, offering fully guided inshore, nearshore, and offshore fishing trips. I specialize in targeting a wide range of local species — from Redfish, Flounder, Trout, and Sheepshead in the backwaters and creeks, to Kingfish, Sailfish, and Red Snapper offshore. Whether you’re looking to chase trophy fish or bring home fresh fillets like Cobia and Sea Bass, I tailor each trip to meet your goals and the season’s best bite.

With over five years of experience working with a local kids fishing camp — and still proudly involved today — I bring a strong focus on education, safety, and fun. Whether it’s introducing young anglers to fishing or guiding seasoned pros to their next big catch, I create a laid-back, professional experience for all ages and skill levels.

You’re welcome to bring your own alcohol, but please drink responsibly. I won’t be providing any, and if anyone becomes too reckless, we’ll have to cut the trip short and head back to the boat ramp. That said, my goal is for everyone to have a great time out on the water!

From teaching the basics to chasing offshore trophies, let’s get out on the water and make your next fishing adventure one to remember.

Fishing lesson charter w/ Capt. Cook.
5 Hour Trip – Inshore on September 4, 2025
I have so many great things to say about our fishing lessons with Captain Cook. Not only was it a great time. It truly was a lesson and the kids haven’t stop talking about it. Captain Cook is young, but more experience than many captains, I know. He knew exactly where to get us to catch the many different species of fish we caught. he not only taught the kids how to cast and operate their rods and reels, he told them what debate each fish likes best, how to bait their hook, secure their hooks when putting the rods down. He taught them different parts of the boat, and Terminology used when boating. They went over the rules and markers of the waterways. went over what species are in season the rules about catch and release. it was extremely educational. Captain Cook has more patience for children than most parents, I know. it’s quite impressive. we arrived to the marina, where Capt. introduced himself to us. The boat was as clean as a boat can be while fishing. he provided a very safe, smooth charter experience, and a top-notch fishing lesson for our homeschoolers. Again a confident in experienced captain. While he is phenomenal with children, I’d recommend him as a captain to all ages. We are excited to go again just for a fun charter now that the kids are so confident and enjoy it so much.

We had such an amazing experience! The Captain was incredibly patient and made sure my son and his friends had the best time on their fishing trip. He took the time to teach them, answer all their questions, and make everyone feel comfortable and confident. They came back with huge smiles (and some great catches!). Highly recommend—such a fun and memorable day!

Captain Cook offered a great experience. He was punctual to start and took us to catch our own bait. He put us on a nice spot with lots of fish; we had great fights all day. Highly recommend this trip with a great captain!
