Scott has competed in numerous offshore fishing tournaments, winning the Inaugural Fish Stock tournament in 2003 (formally the Striker). My father and grandfather first took me fishing when I was 5 years old. Over the years I have developed a passion and appreciation for the ocean and all the wonders it has to offer. I have caught monster fish, swam with wild dolphins, turtles, sharks and majestic Manta Rays, but most importantly I have experiences and memories that will never be forgotten. Allow me to share my passion with you, your family and friends and help you create the memories that will last a life time. ​ Captain Scott is the owner and operator. Captain Scott is a tournament-winning fisherman, who has been fishing these waters since 1989, and has his 100-ton USCG Captain’s License. Capt. Scott spends several days each week spear fishing, he can see firsthand where the fish are and what various bottom structures actually look like. He also maintains good relationships with other commercial fishermen and captains which provides an excellent opportunity to exchange ideas and notes on recent fishing patterns. If you are serious about fishing or would like to introduce your family to a new experience, please give us a call. We look forward to helping you make the memories of a life time. I started fishing when I was 5 years old. In 1989 I moved to Central Florida to attend Stetson University, became a certified scuba diver, and have been diving and fishing out of Ponce Inlet ever since. Although I have landed plenty of monsters, I now find more enjoyment helping others experience the thrill of landing the fish of a lifetime. Read More

What is bonnethead shark fishing in Port Orangeall about?

Bonnethead sharks, often referred to as the "smallest member of the hammerhead family," are a fascinating species found in the waters around Port Orange. These sharks are recognizable by their unique shovel-shaped heads, which resemble a bonnet or shovel. While they are not as large or intimidating as some other shark species, bonnetheads are known for their curious behavior and are a popular target for anglers seeking a thrilling catch.

Port Orange offers ample opportunities for anglers to target bonnethead sharks, particularly in the warmer months when these sharks are more active in nearshore and coastal waters. Bonnetheads are opportunistic feeders, primarily preying on small fish, crustaceans, and mollusks. Anglers often target bonnetheads using a variety of techniques, including bottom fishing with cut bait or squid, as well as casting out live bait such as mullet or pinfish.

One of the most exciting aspects of targeting bonnethead sharks in Port Orange is the adrenaline-pumping fight these sharks provide once hooked. Despite their relatively small size compared to other shark species, bonnetheads are strong fighters and known for their acrobatic leaps and powerful runs. Anglers can expect an exhilarating battle as they reel in these feisty sharks, making them a prized catch for anglers of all skill levels looking for an exciting challenge in the waters off Port Orange.

What are the most popular months to fish for bonnethead shark in Port Orange?

Bonnethead sharks can be encountered in the waters around Port Orange throughout the year, but their presence tends to peak during the warmer months. Spring and summer mark the prime seasons for targeting bonnethead sharks in Port Orange, as water temperatures rise and these sharks become more active in nearshore and coastal waters. During this time, bonnetheads are often found patrolling the shallows in search of prey, providing anglers with ample opportunities to hook into these curious sharks.

Late spring through early fall is when anglers are most likely to encounter bonnethead sharks in Port Orange. As the water temperature climbs, bonnetheads become more abundant and readily feed in the productive coastal waters off Port Orange. During these seasons, anglers can target bonnetheads using a variety of techniques such as bottom fishing with cut bait or squid, as well as casting out live bait such as mullet or pinfish. Additionally, the warmer months provide ideal conditions for anglers to enjoy a day on the water while pursuing these fascinating sharks.

While bonnethead sharks can be found in the waters around Port Orange year-round, anglers may find their presence diminishes during the cooler months of late fall and winter. As water temperatures drop, bonnetheads may migrate to warmer waters or deeper offshore areas, making them less accessible to anglers closer to shore. However, opportunistic anglers may still encounter bonnetheads during these seasons, particularly in areas with consistent water temperatures or nearshore habitats with abundant food sources. Overall, the warmer months offer the best opportunities for anglers to target bonnethead sharks in Port Orange and enjoy the thrill of hooking into these fascinating creatures.

What techniques are popular for catching bonnethead shark in Port Orange?

Fishing for bonnethead sharks in Port Orange requires a strategic approach and the right techniques to maximize your chances of success. One effective method for targeting bonnetheads is bottom fishing. Anglers typically use heavy tackle and anchor near known shark habitats such as channels, sandbars, or nearshore reefs. Baits such as cut bait, squid, or oily fish are deployed on the ocean floor to attract bonnetheads. Patience is key with this method, as anglers wait for the telltale signs of a shark taking the bait before setting the hook.

Another productive technique for bonnethead shark fishing in Port Orange is chumming. Anglers deploy a mixture of fish parts, blood, and other attractants into the water to create a scent trail that draws sharks to the area. Once sharks are attracted to the chum slick, anglers can present baits using a variety of methods, including bottom fishing or casting out live bait. Chumming can be an effective way to bring bonnetheads within range of the boat and increase your chances of hooking into these curious sharks.

For anglers looking for a more active approach, sight fishing can be an exhilarating way to target bonnethead sharks in Port Orange. This method involves scanning the surface of the water for signs of sharks, such as dorsal fins or the distinct shape of bonnetheads cruising near the surface. Once spotted, anglers cast out baits or lures to entice the sharks to strike. Sight fishing requires keen observation skills and quick reflexes but can result in thrilling encounters with these fascinating sharks. Overall, employing a combination of bottom fishing, chumming, and sight fishing techniques can help anglers increase their chances of hooking into bonnethead sharks in the waters off Port Orange.

What other species are popular in Port Orange?

While targeting bonnethead sharks can be an exciting pursuit in Port Orange, anglers have a diverse range of other species to target for a rewarding fishing experience. One popular catch is the redfish, a staple of inshore fishing in Port Orange. These resilient fish can be found prowling the shallow flats, marshes, and channels, providing anglers with opportunities for sight casting and light tackle fishing. With their powerful runs and willingness to take a variety of baits and lures, redfish offer an exciting challenge for anglers of all skill levels.

Another sought-after species in Port Orange is the spotted seatrout, known for its abundance and delectable flesh. These fish are commonly found in the shallow grass flats and estuaries, where they feed on baitfish and shrimp. Anglers targeting spotted seatrout often use live bait such as shrimp or mullet, as well as artificial lures like soft plastics and topwater plugs. Hooking into a trophy-sized seatrout can provide an exhilarating battle and a tasty reward at the end of the day.

For those looking to target larger game fish, Port Orange offers opportunities to hook into species such as tarpon and snook. Tarpon, known for their acrobatic leaps and sheer strength, migrate along the coast and can be found in the coastal waters and estuaries of Port Orange during the warmer months. Anglers often target tarpon using live bait or artificial lures, presenting them in areas with strong tidal currents or nearshore structures. Snook, prized for their powerful runs and aggressive strikes, inhabit mangrove-lined shorelines, bridges, and inlet areas, where they lie in wait for prey. Whether targeting redfish, spotted seatrout, tarpon, snook, or other species, anglers in Port Orange have plenty of opportunities to hook into trophy-sized fish and create lasting memories on the water.

    I have many ways I could explain this trip I was unable to go so I sent my 218-year-old sons with their buddies and they had the time of their life. They couldn’t say enough about Captain Aaron. He made them feel right at home even after two of them puked. Plenty of fish were caught and plenty of memories made specially for two seniors 100% be going back to captain Aaron. But next time I’m going see you soon.

    We had an amazing time with Aaron! He had a great personality, which made it a very enjoyable experience! We did the 8am charter and had a beautiful day.

    Aaron was amazing! Very family friendly and it was my daughters first time even holding a fishing pole and she enjoyed every minute of it. We chose the inshore fishing and the other kids had a great a time also. My son caught a shark, it was cold when we went out (I didn’t check the weather before hand) but we were very comfortable on the boat and he was very accommodating with the weather. I highly, highly recommend Aaron for your fishing trip.

    Great all around trip and experience, even tho it was a tough day on the water still had a great time and some good laughs.

    Nathan M. with Billy P. of Port Orange, Florida

  • ★★★★★
    With a huge storm the day before and winds still keeping most boats off the water we did very well. 12 fish total with 2 being sharks. One fish we caught was bit in half! Great day on the beach! Learned so many new skills as well and Kathy is too notch at sharing her techniques and working diligently to keep all three of us busey with four rods. You won't find that from a boat. Honestly with four poles soaking, most double rigs totaling 7-8 baits in the water at all times seems much more productive than one rod per angler getting snagged on a reef or baits getting stripped. Being an avid angler myself I'm very impressed with my first time surf fishing under post cold front conditions when many fish get finiky and tuff to commit to feed. Thank you Kathy!!! I'll be back!

    Took our grandson from North Carolina on a shark fishing excursion with Srbo as our captain. Even though our catch was limited, the afternoon and evening with Srbo made up for that. Weather was ideal. Will be back with another grandson and will do this trip again, with Srbo as our captain.
