Inland Fishing Charters - JBs
Inland Fishing Charters - JBs
Inland Fishing Charters invites you to step onboard and explore the rich waterways of the Mosquito Lagoon and the Indian River. Here you will find the inshore's nicest species, that are not only incredibly tasty, but also fight fiercely.
The captain has extensive experience in putting his customers on a fish of a lifetime. His trips run year-round are suitable for novice anglers. The captain will also teach you about fishing. Kids are most welcome to come onboard and the captain will supply the vests.
You will be fishing from a 20' Xtreme20 flats boat built in 2011. The boat is powered by a 140 HP Suzuki engine and can easily maneuver around the inshore waterways. She is fitted with GPS and a fishfinder, has a casting platform that is perfect for sight fishing, a trolling motor and all the fishing gear. There is some bottled water onboard and the captain will also provide ice for your fish. The boat can take up to six people, but if you have a larger party, the captain may accommodate you as well.
The fishing around the Mosquito and Indian River lagoons take place in shallow waters, some 3 foot deep, so no need to worry much about sea sickness. Of course, if you feel you might get affected, it's best to take some meds before the trip.
These fisheries are abundant in nice sport fish. You can get some impressive Redfish, as well as Spotted Seatrout, Snook, Tarpon, but also Flounder, Ladyfish, and Mangrove Snapper. Snook and Tarpon bite the best during spring, summer and into the fall, while Reds and Trout can be readily caught any day of the year. The trips mostly include jigs and topwater bait.
You should bring sunscreen, sunglasses, and a hat. The captain will supply live bait before the trip. Please note that kids under six need to have vests on all the time. And it would be good to bring a cooler along so you can return your freshly caught fish back home. Invite your friends and come along!

Karla Riley5.0VerifiedNewAMAZING TIME!!!! GREAT WITH KIDS!!!!!
Half Day Trip - 5 Hours on September 19, 2026 • 5 adults • 1 childThis was my familys first time fishing inshore and we were extremely happy with the experience!!! Captain John did a fantastic job teaching us how to properly set the hooks and fish while inshore!! We caught a cooler full of trout we’ll for sure be eating good!!!! Captain John even made my wishes come true and got us on the fight with Bull Redfish which was absolutely memorable!! My little one is 3 and she handles the 5 hour Inshore charter like a champ!!! Thank you Captain John for the amazing day out on the water, the stories you shared with us about your life, and for taking your time to teach us all including my little girl how to fish inshore. We will gladly be coming back!!!
Jocelyn Kneeland5.0Verifiedgreat day on the water!!
3 Hour Trip on May 14, 2026 • 2 adultsJohn was very helpful, kind, and informational, and we spent good quality time out on the water today. We had not been fishing in many, many, many years, so we dabbled out on the water today for a three-hour fishing charter, and it was perfect. We only caught one fish we kept and threw the rest back, but it was still an amazing time. Very calm, peaceful, and fun! We got beautiful photos of the sunrise as well as quite a few dolphins! Thank you, John!........................🥰😍😍😘😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎

3 Hour Trip on June 1, 2026 • 3 adultsCapt John is wonderful and genuine. Really helped us to get fish on the line and helped us cast to the right spot. He baited the hooks for me! We will definitely book with him again. Located near Ocean Walk complex so convenient! We also saw Manatees (can't right up to the boat)and dolphins too.
