My father owned a small tackle shop when I was little and ran charters on the weekends. I fell in love with it being with dad all the time. Years later I went off to college on a division II football scholarship. At the end of my sophomore season I left school to get my captains license and start fishing. I am chasing my dream of being an offshore fishing guide and I love being on the water everyday.

What's biting with Reel Time Charters in Atlantic Beach

Summer's on its way out, but there's no end to the fishing. Attention shifts inshore, where Sheepshead can be found near most local bridges. Fill up on Crabs and Sea Urchins as bait, and land yourself some dinner.
