About Your Trip

Hop on board with Captain Scott and get ready for a memorable trip fishing the Florida Atlantic! In the deep waters off the coast of Daytona Beach there's always bound to be a prized fish chasing after your line.

On this 6 hour trip, Captain Scott will take you from Port Orange up to 15 miles offshore where you can expect to target Amberjack, Blackfin Tuna, Cobia, King Mackerel, Mahi Mahi, Red Snapper, Sailfish, and Wahoo. For these 6 hour trips you are usually constricted to one type of fishing whether that's trolling or bottom fishing.

For the full day 8 hour trips you can expect to have more time to explore deeper water or stay in around the same distance but mix up the fishing techniques. Depending on the fish, Captain Scott will get you set up with one of a variety of fishing methods including light tackle, artificial lures, heavy tackle, bottom fishing, trolling, and jigging. Captain Scott spends tons of time diving in the area and gets a first-hand look at fish habits throughout the week, so don't be surprised when his expert tips land you a picture-worthy fish!

You'll be fishing aboard Captain Scott's 31ft Contender center console with a capacity for 6 anglers. This boat is designed by fishermen for fishermen. It is the ultimate fishing platform and has plenty of space to fight that monster fish, set up your dive gear, or to kick back and relax in a bean bag chair. It has 2 large live wells to hold live bait, 4 fish boxes including two separate 400qt fish boxes. With twin 300's strapped to the stern, Captain Scott can get you out to the fishing grounds in a hurry so you'll spend more time fishing and less time riding. The boat is also equipped with a bathroom for those emergency situations.

Captain Scott will provide all rods, reels, tackle, and live bait. All you need to bring is sunglasses, sunscreen, and any snacks or drinks you might need. Come visit Port Orange and have a super fun time on the water with Captain Scott!

Our group of 5 had a great experience with Scott, also known as “Steve”. It was a beautiful day on the water. Scott was knowledgeable and quickly responded when we needed him… which was often, as we were not experienced!
We’ll go out with Scott again!

Captain Scott is simply amazing!!!! He totally enjoyed his sense of humor and it was so awesome to interact with him during our fishing trip. When a storm popped up and we had to cut our fishing trip 2 hours short it was refreshing to not be nervous on the rough seas as Captain Scott remained calm and talked to us all the way back to shore!! Can NOT wait to go...
