About Your Guide

Chad K.

Independent Guide

Based out of beautiful New Smyrna Beach, We offers unparalleled fishing adventures in one of Florida’s prime fishing locations. With over 15 years of commercial fishing experience, our journey into guiding began with a passion for sharing the thrill of fishing and the beauty of the ocean with others.

Our style is a perfect blend of professional expertise and friendly, personalized service. We pride ourselves on our extensive local knowledge and commitment to creating memorable, tailored experiences for each of our guests. Unlike other charters, we focus on smaller, more intimate groups, ensuring personalized attention and a better chance for each guest to reel in a great catch.

When you book with us, expect top-notch equipment, comfortable boats, and expert guidance throughout your trip. We target a variety of species, from redfish and trout inshore to the thrill of shark fishing in the offshore waters. Our guides are not only skilled fishermen but also passionate about teaching and sharing their knowledge, ensuring an educational and exciting experience for anglers of all levels.

Join us for a fishing adventure that combines excitement, expertise, and exceptional service. We look forward to creating unforgettable memories with you on the water.

Once you've paid your deposit at checkout, we'll send you a QR Code boarding pass. Just show your guide your boarding pass on the day of the trip, they'll scan it, the remaining balance will transfer automatically, and you'll be all set to get out there. Just make sure you bring a cash tip for the guide!

In the event of inclement weather, our guides will check the conditions and make the final call on whether its safe to go on the trip.

Each trip's price is determined by the guide and reflects all associated costs. A significant factor in pricing is often the type of boat and the corresponding fuel expenses. Additional costs may include leases, marina or slip fees, bait, and the expenses involved in providing and maintaining the necessary gear for your trip.

After booking your trip, we'll connect you directly with your guide to discuss additional details. In the meantime, our team is here to answer any questions via email, text, or phone.
