If it's inshore and nearshore fishing you're after, look no further than 'Live Action Fishing Charters'! Captain Justin Rolph, a Crystal River native, has been running this operation since 2015. This laid-back captain does his best to help you land a great fish while making long-lasting memories.
Your vessel for the day is 22' Nautic Star center console. She can accommodate up to 4 anglers on fishing charters, and 6 on scalloping trips. This smooth-riding boat is powered by a 150 HP Yamaha SHO engine with a Simrad to help keep you on the fish. There is also a cooler onboard to keep your drinks and snacks cool throughout the trip.
Whether you want to fish the flats, sight casting, or head into slightly deeper waters, Capt. Justin has the gear you need to hook your target fish.
From Redfish and Snook to Gag Grouper, Tripletail and Sheepshead, it'll be a rod-bending day! If you'd rather spend your time searching for scallops in the summertime, Captain Justin provides snorkeling gear.
All the fishing and scalloping equipment you need is already on board. At the end of the trip, Capt. Justin is also happy to clean and fillet your catch. Help yourself to the bottled water in the ice box or stock it up with your own drinks and snacks before setting out.
Capt. Justin and the crew look forward to seeing you aboard Live Action Fishing Charters!

We seriously can’t brag enough about how much fun we have every time we go scalloping with him! From the moment we get on the boat, you can tell how much he genuinely cares about making sure everyone has an amazing experience. What really stands out to us is the safety. He is incredibly knowledgeable, attentive, and makes sure everyone feels comfortable and safe the entire time. At the same time, he knows exactly where to take you to find the good spots and makes sure you get the most out of your trip! We’ve had such an incredible time every time we go (3rd time with Justin), and we always leave already looking forward to the next trip. If you’re considering booking a scalloping charter, DO IT! You won’t regret it. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
We were a group of 2 moms and 2 teen girls. Captain Justin was so great to the girls and helped us learn what to look for and how to fish adequately for each species as we were reeling them in. He put us on fish and had us do the fishing which is what fishing is all about. We usually were catching fish st the same time which was alot of fun. He had zero issues with untangling our lines. The boat had plenty of room for all of us and there were no problems at all. He was personable and pretty entertaining! We saw eagles and nest, mangroves, ray, remora with a science lesson, dolphins right at the boat, tons of species of fish and sea turtle. and wholy cow all of the fish was delicious! even made fish nachos for breakfast to not let them go to waste. We saw massive tarpon close up as well as pelicans. I see now why he gets regular rebookings. All 4 of us instantly knew this would be the best part of our entire trip! Thank you Justin!

Capt. Justin got my wife and I on the fish early, and although it was a windier day, he still managed to produce an inshore slam. He knows his stuff! We had a great time and we would highly recommend Justin to anyone coming to Crystal River. Thanks, man!
Capt. Justin is hands down the best guide in the area. Does what it takes to put clients on fish, great boat with top of the line gear, and Justin has a passion for fishing and the outdoors that shows in his dedication to putting his clients on fish and determination on the water. If you're in crystal river to fish, Justin is the guide you want!
Captain Justin Rolph may not have the biggest or fanciest boat, BUT HE WILL PUT YOU ON FISH. You should know how to cast and reel them in. He let's you fish, not just reel them in. This is unlike some other captains we saw. Their clients were sitting as the captain fished and they only stood up when he handed them the reel! If you like to catch fish, Captain Justin Rolph is the man to fish with!! Thanks Justin for another great, memorable day!
