Background
With two decades of experience on the waters around Daytona Beach, Captain Matt Maddox is an expert in getting you to the hottest inshore bite. It was his father that got him into fishing, so Capt. Matt decided to follow in his dad's footsteps and run charters for a living. Nothing beats the feeling of being on the water and hearing that reel scream with a hefty catch on the other side.
