  3/4 Day Trip – Offshore on April 25, 2026 • 4 adults

  Had an amazing fishing trip and couldn’t be happier with the experience. captain Charley was knowledgeable, professional, and made sure everyone had a great time from start to finish. He knew exactly where to go, kept us on fish all day, and was great at helping with bait, gear, and technique. The boat was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped. We caught plenty of fish and made some great memories out on the water. You can tell he really cares about giving people a great experience. Highly recommend this charter to anyone looking for a fun and successful day fishing—I’ll definitely be booking again!

  Great Experience

  Half Day Trip – Offshore on July 29, 2026 • 4 adults

  We recently went out with Captain Charley for my fathers 65 birthday. It was one he will never forget. It was a little slow at first finding the fish, but Captain Charley kept moving around looking for where the fish were. We ended the day catching 7.5 foot sailfish!! Biggest fish I have personally seen caught and my father (who was the one that reeled him in) said that was the hfgest fish hes ever caught. Great experience and I would recommend Captain Charley to anyone looking for a good memorable experience.

  Great day out for offshore fishing!

  3/4 Day Trip – Offshore on August 15, 2026 • 3 adults

  We had a really great day out with Charley. This was a trip for me, my father in law, and my son. Charley is clearly expert and walked us through catching bait the first part of the day and then we went for kingfish and tuna. Charley knows the area and took us to some great spots. He really did everything possible to set us up for catches, and we came back with some great fish. I would 100% book with Charley's Charters again.

  Fish ON!

  Full Day Trip – Offshore on March 22, 2026 • 2 adults

  We had an awesome time today with Charley's Fishing Charters. We got on a few nice fish early and then saw a break in the action through much of the morning and mid afternoon. We reached out to several other boat crews on the water with all others sharing similar reports. Charley and Dennis were determined to get us back on fish and boy did they deliver. We hooked into a Sail fish before the end of the day and several large snapper filled the coolers. This was a father-son trip we will never forget! We will be back for sure!

  Family fishing trip

  Half Day Trip – Inshore on December 24, 2025 • 5 adults • 1 child

  We booked Charley's Fishing Charters for our son's 16th birthday who loves deep sea fishing. We booked for the offshore fishing but unfortunately, we had to change to the inshore due to the weather condition. Despite the change, we had a great time out there. Not only Charley and his first mate helped us catch different kinds of fish but also they were very friendly and were great with our kids (we had 17, 16, and 10). I also felt that they cared us (customers) and worked hard to make the experience fun for us. I also appreciated it that Charley was responsive from the time of the booking until the day of the fishing. The boat was comfortable size for 5 of us. It was nice to have a bathroom for ladies. I would recommend Charley's Fishing Charters to others and we hope to return for the offshore fishing.
