What would you recommend to anglers fishing in Port Canaveral, Florida for the first time?

Captain definitely made the trip worth while. He made sure that we caught enough fish to satisfy our urge to reel

I recommend fishing at Port Canaveral because there is plenty to do in the area and well suited for adults and kids. The people here are friendly and conveniently located close to cocoa beach

Eat at one of the local restaurants after your trip. We heard good things about all of them but settled on Rusty's, and it was awesome!

Take Captain Justins boat! Its private so its just your group...no strangers...definately will be fishing with him again next time!!

Access to Port Canaveral is about as easy a location as you can find ... plenty of parking, and direct access to ocean and Banana river.

Well don't expect to catch fish but you could always have a good day. So get a good boat Capt and mate like me and my kids had and you'll be fine . Definitely will go on ME TOO charter again.

Make sure that your charter or Cpt. can provide what is advertised. LIVE BAIT, FIGHTING SEAT, SECOND MATE OR HAND and specially a boat that is fitted and adequate for the trip.

It seemed that inshore fishing is hit or miss. I guess if I had to do it over, I’d try the offshore trip to see if we would have better luck.

Just make sure in April to check the weather and offshore reports. It can either be great conditions or a bit rough. Just make sure to get yourself out on a nice flat day.

Always be prepared for changing weather conditions at all times. I recommend bringing rain gear such as poncho or jacket.

Plan on making plans to take fish back and make sure your plans are in place before you fish in Port Canaveral.

We didn't have any luck out in the boat (3 croakers) but we did catch a shark off the beach which was awesome. Hopefully the fishing is better for you than it was for me.

Weather can be spotty, cool in the morning and warm in the afternoon. Dress in layers.

It's a lot of fun however, season matters! Do a little research on what to expect to catch.

We caught 12 fish in about 1 1/2 hrs....had some much fun!! You won't be disappointed ?????❤️

Take your filets to Rusty’s restaurant and have them cook them for your lunch or dinner.

Cool place if you like seeing SpaceX equipment and cruise ships. Fishing is good as well.

Try to take a charter when the ocean is more settled…we had some pretty choppy waves!

Had a wonderful fishing visit- weather, boating experience with kids and fish species

Enjoy the experience you get, rather than what you think it might be beforehand.

Had a great time fishing with Captain Michael Adkins in Port Canaveral, Florida, United States.

It's hot bring water and if you need food regularly bring snacks it can be a long day on the water

Know where to go exactly. It was a little confusing finding the way to the dock.

Don't be afraid to reach out to the captains. They are happy to answer questions.

I would recommend Cpt8J. He was: courteous, engaging, knowledgeable, ethical, respectful.

Checknweather before booking. There ar rlots of boats so dont really need to book in advance

Awesome fishing...Lots of opportunities...and a wide variety of fish available to catch!

Captain, we will definitely go with you again. Thanks for the wonderful experience

Let the Captain know what is u are looking for. He’ll make the best choices for you!

If you have never done this before, listen to your captain. He knows what he is talking about.
