Blue Water Fishing Charter Adventures offers offshore trips and tours out of New Smyrna Beach, Florida. The company has a different approach to fishing trips. Captain Rodney trailers his vessel to locations that are favorable with offshore marine reports so that his guests will always be comfortable while fishing.

Take a ride Capt. Rodney aboard his 28’ Sea Cat catamaran. It comes powered by brand-new twin Honda engines with a maximum cruising speed of 40 knots. The boat was restored in 2017 and is well-prepared for the current bite.

It has comfortable fishing space for up to 5 guests and comes fully equipped with a GPS, a VHF radio, fishfinder, and radar. The vessel is fitted with a live bait tank and an ice-box to make sure the catch is fresh during the day.

From 6-hour bottom fishing trip to a 10-hour deep-water adventure, Capt. Rodney can do it all! Depending on the season, you will be targeting Red Snapper, Mahi Mahi, Wahoo, King Mackerel, Grouper, Permit, Amberjack, Cobia, Redfish… and the list just keeps going!

With over 30 years of experience in fishing, Capt. Rodney knows the waters in and around Florida like the back of his hand.

The crew and captain work very hard to ensure you have an amazing trip and a 20% gratuity is customary for each person.

For your trip, you’ll be provided with rods, reels, tackle, lures, frozen bait, and fishing licenses. All you need to bring on board is food, drinks, and your desire to catch fish!

Join BlueWater Fishing Charter Adventures and come enjoy a day of great fishing under the Floridian sun!
