Experience the thrill of fishing Daytona Beach’s flats, jetties, and reefs with Captain Christian!
Join Captain Christian for an engaging fishing excursion that covers both inshore and nearshore waters around Daytona Beach. Suitable for anglers of all skill levels—from experienced fishermen to beginners and families—these charters offer flexible trips lasting between 4 and 6 hours, targeting some of Florida’s most prized fish species.
Your adventure begins at a local boat ramp before heading out to fish prime spots including the Halifax River, Ponce Inlet jetties, and nearby reefs. On calmer days, Captain Christian may venture further offshore to pursue larger game fish. Depending on the season, you’ll have the opportunity to catch Redfish, Snook, Speckled Trout, Flounder, Mangrove Snapper, as well as offshore species like Amberjack, Black Grouper, Mutton Snapper, and even Bull or Hammerhead Sharks when conditions permit.
This highly adaptable trip incorporates a variety of fishing methods such as live bait, artificial lures, trolling, bottom fishing, jigging, drift fishing, and more. All fishing gear—including rods, reels, tackle, and live bait—is provided. Captain Christian will assist in selecting the techniques that best match the current bite.
Fishing takes place aboard an 18-foot bay boat, agile enough to navigate shallow inshore waters yet capable of reaching nearshore reefs. The boat accommodates up to six guests comfortably and features amenities like a restroom and a Bluetooth sound system.

Complimentary snacks and drinks are included, and guests are welcome to bring additional refreshments (beer is permitted, but glass containers are not). For your convenience, fish cleaning services are available at the dock for a nominal charge.
Captain Christian holds a federal permit allowing legal access to deeper offshore waters when weather conditions allow, expanding the range and variety of fish species you can target. Whether casting topwater plugs for Redfish at dawn or dropping lines for Snapper over a reef, each day on the water is crafted to be enjoyable and customizable to your preferences.
