I'm Captain Mike Adkins. I began working on head boats while still in high school, became a full-time mate after graduating college in 2007, and eventually became a Captain in May 2008. I've run charter boats as captain/mate for over 15 years. I have lived and worked from Key West, FL, to North Carolina and everywhere in between, and spent 3 years only fishing in the southern Bahamas. I specialize in trolling, but I'm also an expert on various other techniques.

    An Unforgettable Family Shark Fishing Adventure! ⭐

    4 Hour Trip – Shark/Nearshore • 4 adults • 2 children

    Yesterday was an experience our family will never forget! I’m so glad we found Flight Risk Fishing Charters through FishingBooker. We wanted to take our two kids on a memorable fishing trip while visiting the Cocoa Beach area, but we weren’t sure what type of charter to book. Since our son has always been fascinated by sharks, we decided to give shark fishing a try—and it exceeded every expectation! We were lucky enough to catch four sharks, each a different species: a blacktip, blacknose, lemon, and finetooth. Every member of our family caught one! Captain Mike even let the kids keep the hooks they used to catch their sharks, giving them a special keepsake they’ll treasure for years. Captain Mike was fantastic with our pre-teens. We started by anchoring and setting out the shark lines, and while we waited for the first bite, he had the kids fishing for sand trout. They caught well over 50! My son even caught one big enough that Captain Mike used it as shark bait—and that’s the bait that helped him catch his shark! It was such a cool full-circle moment. On the ride back to the marina, Captain Mike took the time to teach our daughter about the boat and how everything worked. He was patient, engaging, and clearly enjoys introducing kids to fishing. As a family man himself, he shared stories with us throughout the trip, making the entire experience feel relaxed, welcoming, and personal. We were able to bring three of our four sharks onboard the boat for photos. My husband’s shark was another story—it was simply too big! At approximately 12 feet long and around 400 pounds, there was no bringing that one aboard! If you’re looking for an unforgettable fishing experience with someone who is knowledgeable, patient, and wonderful with families, I can’t recommend Captain Mike and Flight Risk Fishing Charters enough. We absolutely plan to book with him again the next time we’re in the area!

    An Unforgettable Shark Fishing Adventure!

    4 hour afternoon Shark Fishing trip • 4 adults • 1 child

    We had an incredible time shark fishing with our 14-year-old son and 12-year-old daughter! From the moment we got on the water, the action never stopped. The kids had huge smiles on their faces the entire trip because they were constantly reeling in fish and sharks. The captain was knowledgeable, patient, and made sure everyone had a chance to catch something. He was great with the kids and kept the excitement going from start to finish. This was one of those family experiences we’ll be talking about for years. If you’re looking for an exciting trip with nonstop action and unforgettable memories, we highly recommend this charter. We can’t wait to come back!

    Great half day deep charter

    5 Hour Off-Shore fishing trip • 2 adults

    A half day deep sea charter with Captain Mike in late July was a great day for my wife and i as a last minute schedule while in town for business. With just. day to get out we didnt target anything specific and let him guide on what was currently biting well. He quickly got us on the Kingfish with steady acton the entire trip. He is an absolute pleasure to be around and to work with and worked hard to make sure we had the best opportunities given the current bite and conditions! His exprience and local knowledge is very apparent. You won't go wrong booking with Flight Risk and Captain Mike.

    Great trip!!

    4 Hour Trip – Shark/Nearshore • 3 adults

    Booked a four hour shark fishing trip and we definitely got what we hoped for. Just a few minutes after dropping anchor the sharks started biting. We caught five nice size sharks, two being well over seven foot. Captain made the experience great. He was very helpful and generally seemed as excited as we were when the fish were biting. My seventeen year old son is now hooked. He can’t wait to bring his buddies back. Great memories!!!

    We had such a great time!!

    4 hour afternoon Shark Fishing trip • 4 adults

    My son wanted to catch sharks and boy did we. From the first minute, he reeled one in. Catain Jake was amazing! Calm, friendly, knowledgeable and just overall a great guy! He did everythung so we would have a successful day. We caught about 20 sharks including black tip sharks and a nurse shark weighing approximately 250-300 pounds. We also caught a 30 pound king mackerel. Some of these sharks put up a pretty good fight which made for an even better experience. We would definitely recommend Captain Jake for your fishing adventures!

What's biting with Flight Risk Fishing Charters in Port Canaveral

Ako postoji nešto kao što je prelazna sezona na jugoistoku Floride, to je ovo. Očekujte manje gužve na plažama i na čarter brodovima. Wahoo i Sailfish se mogu naći na otvorenom moru, dok se Bull Redfish mresti u priobalju.
