Tim had plenty of "holes" thatwere chock full of fish. Never a boring moment when you're reeling in fish after fish. There were times when I'd pull up two fish at a time. Unfortunately it wasn't red snapper season so those HUGE bad boys had to go back in. If you're in the Port Orange, Daytona, Edgewater, NSB area (heck, even Orlando, it's worth the drive, promise) and you'd like to spend the day on the water fishing, Captain Tim's your man. Side note to nature lovers: I spotted sea turtles and dolphins. That never ceases to amaze me.

We caught our limit so quickly, so we switched gears and started trolling. We caught a huge barracuda, 2 1/2 bonita (something ate the other half as we reeled it in), and a king mackerel. We also caught a huge red snapper, which we weren't allowed to keep, but even that was amazing. It was a beautiful fish and he performed first aid on it before releasing it to guarantee its survival. Who does that? Respect! We actually called it. We had plenty of keeper fish, so he headed back in. Captain Mike fileted the fish we were keeping and even brought us to the restaurant next door (Boondockers) and asked them to cook our fish for us. The amberjacks were delicious! Thanks Capitan Mike for the best Father's Day ever!

Highly recommend this charter above all others in the local Daytona/Port Orange/New Smyrna area. One of the most friendliest men you'll ever meet as well. Thanks Captain Mike for always arising to the challenge.

Calm seas made this a nice boat ride, the fishing not so hot. The advertised fishing depths were…read moreto 90 feet, but we didn't get deeper than 50. Saw our crew member once when he came around and put two handfuls of small cut bait on the rail; turned to rocks after 30 min in the sun. Mates said no fresher or larger bait was available. Crew spent most of their time fishing. When we did move (3 time after initial set) the crew was in the wheelhouse having a grand time; while it was a full trip, for the most part they stayed off the deck unless they were fishing. The photos you see on the site or the newspaper of young smiling faces with big fish are probably of crew members family/guests. Capt caught a 25 lbs cobia, a photo of fish and a "nephew" ran in the paper that week. The only thing you can say about the rental fishing gear is it's pretty sad; reels are loose and in disrepair, the line is frayed and the leaders are even worse. Tip if you go: Get them to change the leader and replace the hook with something appropriate for the targeted fish; you won't catch a lot of 2 lbs mangrove snapper on a 7/0 circle hook and a inch and a half square of baked bait. Like I wrote at the beginning it was a nice boat ride. My grandson was impressed with the flying fish and the Ponce Inlet lighthouse. But if you want fish and the service you expect for the dollar you might try another ride.
