What would you recommend to anglers fishing in Daytona Beach, Florida for the first time?

Wear long sleeved sun shirts and pants. If early morning trip wear or bring a jacket it’s cool in the early morning and you can take off once fishing and not moving across water. Bring sunscreen wear sun hat and polarized sun glasses. Have fun ?

We strongly recommend you fish with a guide. If you want the experience and thrill of actually catching fish vs. hunting around and coming up empty, learn from the experts where they run and the best conditions. This was worth every penny.

Book with a captain that knows the waters, has experience, and does guided tours full time! Read the captain bios! If possible go to the actual website for the fishing charter you want book! You never know you might get a discount!!

The fishing was great but the weather and water conditions could have been better. It was cold, windy, and the water was a bit rough. The captain, his helper, the boat and equipment was great, but next time (for the sake of my twin 12 year olds who got a bit sea sick) we will fish during a warmer and calmer time of year. Speaking strictly fishing, we were catching fish constantly and a great variety of fish which made up for the tough weather conditions. Scott was easy going and tried to make everyone feel comfortable.

Go out have a great time! remember it’s Florida. The weather can change on a dime and you can’t expect the fish to bite all the time so just enjoy being out there on the water trying to catch your fish. ? ?

Saltwater estuary fish strike hard and are fun to catch. The fish were not large enough to keep. We used a combination of bottom fishing, bobber fishing, and lures. The fish stopped biting around 11am.

Watch the weather and dress appropriately. Dress in layers. 20 miles offshore The weather is different than at the dock. Usually windier and colder. You can always remove layers. Don’t forget Sun screen and polarized sun glasses.

They provide everything- best thing is to listen and take their guidance as they are the experts for sure! Do t hesitate to ask questions as they are very kind and love talking about fishing and they point out things in the ocean we would have missed- jellyfish- turtles-dolphins- manatee.

Book a guide that is very familiar with the area and knows how to work a Garman. Highly recommend Chubby mullet charters. Hauls in several reds 35 lbs are better also snook , Colt cleaned the ones we limited out on and let’s us know as restaurant where they fish could be cook it was excellent and fun.

Be prepared to catch 90 % red snapper. They fight hard and make for an excellent experience. Too bad you cannot keep for the dinner plate but that's what happens with the federal government oversight, they make rules that make no sense.

Take ginger ale or ginger chews with you. Motion sickness pills don't work as good. Decide what you are going to do with the catch you keep before you go. Expect to have to throw back a lot that are too small or out of season.

Weather is crazy here so be prepared. And if you have never fished the ocean pay for the guide save yourself lots of time and missed fish

We had a good experience but didn’t catch as many fish in April as we did during a previous charter in July.

Discuss your trip with the captain to get a clear understanding of the details of the trip you selected.

It’s called fishing for a reason even if you don’t catch a fish you’ll have memories to share and remember you had a great time.

Come prepared for cooler weather, never know if it’s going to be windy or not.

Make sure you book with Captain Colt. He is very knowledgeable on all types of fish so if there’s anything in particular you’re looking for, he can put you on it

Listen and learn from your Charter Captain. They know the water, fish, and techniques. Do not miss the scenery. It is wonderful.

Fishing was a little slow because of an incoming storm but that also meant that there were fewer boats out and we had all the choice spots available for as long as we wanted!

It’s first week of August and we limited out 2 hours early. As most know, they don’t always bite this way but today was a great day for fishing!

The sun can be brutal, especially on the water - be prepared with sunscreen, wear the right clothing, and shoes are optional.

Find someone reputable who’s been living here a long time, they know the spots a lot of the new charter captains don’t.

Go with Captian Steve! We caught more fish than I could take pictures of. 3 time 2 on at once! 1 time 3 on at once!

Any anglers wanting to charter a fishing excursion should definitely check out CASTOUTFISHINGCHARTERS. They will treat you right

Surf fishing still slow this time of year. Well worth the money to contact Capt Srb and let him put you on the fish.

Just understand that the “summer” species are not numerous and adjust your expectations accordingly.

Weather permitting there's a lot of good inshore fishing. A lot of different species are out there and they're a blast to catch!

If the red fish bite is on you will have a great time! The mangrove-sheepshead- etc fun to catch too!

September brings almost daily rain. Bring a hard shell jacket so when something kicks up, you are prepared.
