Jigging Charters Near Jacksonville, Fl

Come enjoy a day on the water with Captain Frank exploring what Jacksonville and Northeast Florida have to offer. Fishing Charter trips are available year-round. Captain Frank is a certified US Coast Guard charter boat captain. There is no need to purchase a fishing license, as you will be covered under his fishing license. From sight fishing big redfish to bottom fishing for various species, we can tailor a charter fishing trip to suit your desires. If you're in to sight fishing, we typically troll or pole the flats looking for redfish pushing water. Trout are usually found in the same areas, but in deeper water. Flounder can be found around docks or structure as well as up on the flats. If you are new to fishing, you can use live or dead bait such as shrimp, mullet or crabs. If you are more experienced and want to take that 1 shot at a redfish pushing down a bank, Captain Frank can arrange that as well. He likes to use swim baits, lures, spinner baits, etc. to target these beautiful fish. No matter what your fishing experience is, Captain Frank ensures you will enjoy your trip. As you can see there are several ways to target fish in Jacksonville and all are fun and exciting! All fishing gear is provided (rods, reels, bait, tackle), but feel free to bring your own fishing poles or tackle if you desire. Trips can also be booked to just spend a day on the water sightseeing as well. During your day, you may see manatees, dolphins, stingrays, bald eagles and much more. Northeast Florida has so much beautiful scenery and there's no better way to see it than by boat. Below are some photos I have taken while out on the beautiful waters of Jacksonville Florida. Book your trip today and get ready for your next adventure on the water! Captain Frank welcomes you to take a look at the pictures aboce and to get an idea as to some of the fish you might catch on your fishing trip! Read More

    Captain Don is truly a 5 star fishing guide. He's a better guy. I've been fishing for over 50 years, and as I hoped, Captain Don showed me several ticks and trips I'd never seen. No matter your experience level, he has something to help. We had a great day on the water, and had a great conversation. Darn fish just kept bugging us though.

    Dan D. with Don T. of Jacksonville, Florida

  • ★★★★★
    We had a great time with captain frank. Due to the storms that rolled in weeks prior to our trip and a nor' easter, we had to make due with the areas we had available to fish. The booking process was very easy and we enjoyed our time on the water.

    Magan J. with Frank C. of Jacksonville, Florida

  • ★★★★★
    Our 6-hour in-shore fishing trip with Captain Billy was such a great time! He's definitely done his fair share of charters and we were lucky enough to catch quite a few fish. He followed all sizing restrictions and made sure we were on fish at every spot we went to. After, he showed us the proper way to clean fish. We will most definitely do another charter with him in the future.
