All breeds of anglers have the opportunity to fish Florida’s Atlantic coast like never before with Southern Comfort IV Charters. You can fully enjoy their hospitality and professionalism and who knows, you might even come back for more!

Troll the offshore grounds or drift fish the wrecks and reefs. Certain species are more prevalent in different seasons, so if you are targeting a specific species, it's best to call in advance to find out when that time of the year that might be. The best thing about this part of Florida is that you don’t even have to travel too far out to get to deep waters – it’s almost in your backyard.

Black and Red Grouper, Mahi Mahi, Cobia, Sailfish, Wahoo, Kingfish, Yellowtail and Mutton Snapper, Skipjack and Albacore Tuna – all these and more await offshore. We will always try our best to keep you and your guests entertained and go for what is biting at the time. Again, it is a good idea to touch base with us prior to your charter to make a game plan between crew and guests.

The ‘Southern Comfort IV’ is a massive 52’ custom-built fishing vessel with plenty of space for up to 10 anglers. She can cruise at a top speed of 30 knots thanks to her twin Cummins engines.

The Southern Comfort IV is fully outfitted with everything you need for a successful trip. She comes complete with stellar gear by Shimano TLD with custom-built bent butt rods to land Tuna, Sailfish, Wahoo, and Mahi Mahi. We use Penn 4/0 outfits for the reef fish. The Southern Comfort IV has all the comforts of home with her clean restroom, freshwater sink, air-conditioned cabin, a Bluetooth multimedia system with speakers to play your favorite tunes.

The captain and first mate split the gratuity, 20% is standard.

What an awesome trip!
6 Hour Trip (AM) on January 9, 20267 adults
Captain Bill and his deckhand Drew delivered an absolutely outstanding fishing trip that exceeded all expectations. From the moment we left the dock, Captain Bill’s experience and calm confidence were obvious, putting everyone at ease and getting us on fish quickly. Drew was nonstop energy—knowledgeable, helpful, and great at coaching both beginners and experienced anglers throughout the day. The boat was well-run, organized, and safe, making the entire trip smooth and enjoyable. If you’re looking for a top-tier fishing experience out of Florida, this is the crew you want on the water.

Fantastic Family Fishing Trip – Highly Recommend!!
6 Hour Trip (AM) on June 20, 20257 adults
Our family of 7, including 3 teens and our elderly parents, had an absolutely wonderful time on this fishing trip! From the moment we stepped aboard, everything exceeded our expectations. The boat was clean, spacious, and comfortable—with two captain’s chairs in the front that were perfect for relaxing and enjoying the ride. The air conditioning inside the cabin was a huge plus, especially on a warm Florida day, and the restroom was spotless, which made the trip even more pleasant for everyone. Captain Bill and Ben were the perfect crew—friendly, attentive, and full of energy. Ben made sure we had a steady supply of bait and kept the deck immaculate throughout the day. Both he and Captain Bill encouraged us constantly, creating a fun and welcoming environment for everyone, whether it was our teens reeling in their first big catch or our parents soaking in the experience. We caught about 18–20 fish, including mutton snapper, yellowtails, and even a Cero with great help from our crew! The highlight was Ben expertly cleaning all the fish to our specific requests—his attention to detail really impressed us and made preparing dinner later so easy. This was truly a perfect family outing, filled with laughter, excitement, and great memories. We’ll definitely be booking with them again on our next Florida trip. Highly recommend this crew for anyone looking for a top-notch fishing experience!

The captain was friendly and knowledgeable about how to keep our kids engaged. The fishing started out slow but Captain kept working until we got on some snapper and grouper. We had a blastband can’t wait to come back out!
