Orlando Area Fishing Charters - Saltwater Light Tackle & Fly Fishing

I have over 30 years of experience fishing the salt waters of east central Florida. As your fishing guide, I guarantee a 100% effort to put my clients in the best position to catch fish. The Mosquito Lagoon and Indian River Lagoon are close to Orlando and Disney World and offer the best backcountry inshore saltwater flats fishing in Orlando and Central Florida. Many of my fishing trips are inside the Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge. In addition to the fish, you can also see manatee, dolphin, alligators, and a huge variety of wading and migratory birds on our waters.

Sight fishing charters involve stalking fish in the shallow waters of the Mosquito Lagoon or Indian River Lagoon using a push pole to propel the boat. Anglers stand on the casting deck and look for fish they can cast to. This adds excitement to the fishing experience as you can watch the fish bite your lure. Our primary targets are redfish, black drum, and spotted seatrout. In summer, tarpon and snook can be found as well.

Fishing charters for kids, families, or those with less fishing experience offer fast paced action for a wide variety of backcountry saltwater fish such as jack crevalle, ladyfish, pompano, snapper, sheephead, bluefish, sharks, and much more. These fun fishing trips require no special skills or previous experience and we always catch fish. Kids as young as 4 can catch lots of saltwater fish, see dolphin and manatee, and enjoy this unique estuary. Trips are done in the protected backcountry waters of Edgewater/New Smyrna Beach and there are no rough waves or long boat rides.

For those wanting to go on a Orlando fly fishing trip with a Mosquito Lagoon fly fishing guide, you can experience the thrill of hard fighting fish in just inches of water. Anglers with less fishing experience or when fishing with kids, you can choose a bait fishing charter where you can catch a wide variety of fish including sharks, bluefish, jacks, pompano, ladyfish, sheephead, snapper, flounder, and more. This is easy and high volume catching. Nearshore Atlantic Charters target gamefish along the beaches during the summer and fall.
