If you are booking a charter ask as many questions to the captain as possible prior to your trip so there are no surprises. If you are buying live bait and not fishing with a guide be prepared to pay a premium. If you are surf fishing get there early.

We had a great time with Captain Sunny! It is a tough time of year though. He tried his hardest to get us to fish and we ended up catching six for the day. We will come back some time in March or April though when the fish are more active!

Our party of 5 adults had a great time. We even caught a very large trout and a shark! Lots of Mutton and other varieties of fish. The captain was personable, knowledgeable, and clearly experienced. We had dinner at Sebastian Saltwater, also a recommendation from the captain, and it was excellent. An overall memorable experience!

Snapper is out of season and the heat slows fish bites closer to mid day. Part of fishing though. Still a great time!

Yes, we went on the Indian River. Due to wind. I would like to go out of the inlet in the ocean the next time weather permitting.

Be patient with the weather and have additional days available in case your first choice does not work out.

Charter fishing is great as well as pier fishing, surf fishing is a little difficult with the gradual beach. March and April seem to be good times of the year.

July isn't the best month, but Captain Eric made it an enjoyable half-day searching for signs of fish and learning about the area's eco issues and treasure-hunting history.

If it's slow, make sure you have a Captain who will happily take you to different mangroves and structures to improve your chances. We did in Captain Shane Trottier.

If you’re fishing late February with kids, take plenty of warmer weather gear.

If you can’t go in a flats boat or in a boat that weather allows in the Atlantic, don’t go!!!

Waters can be a bit choppy. A bit better in April/May. But the fish still bite well.

Try a charter and go with the professional. It's a lot better then a quite day at sea.
