WELCOME TO JACKSONVILLE INSHORE FISHING CHARTERS

Jacksonville Inshore Fishing has a huge abundance of incredible places for fishing. With both saltwater and freshwater options, there really isn't a bad time of year to fish in Jacksonville. The St. Johns River and channels are known as amazing places to fish for both freshwater and saltwater special. This inshore fishing is fun, whether you're looking to enjoy offshore game fishing, inshore or nearshore fishing, you'll find it all throughout the waterways of Jacksonville.

When it's time to hit some of the best inshore fishing areas in Jacksonville, you need to know where to go. Redfish and trout are common targets for those looking to fishing inshore. Here are some of the hot spots.

Matanzas and Pellicer Creek Flats spot offers a great place for mullet with a huge mullet run. If there's a high tide, it may push the mullet and reds onto any flat along the Intracoastal Waterway. Most of the fish found on the flats are reds, but those on the Pellicer Creek section could include gator trout as they move to shallow waters. It's also possible to find some flounders and trout at the falling tide creek mouths.

To hit the Mosquito Lagoon, the fall is a great time. It comes alive, especially at the tail end of the hurricane season when the water levels are a bit higher. The creeks found at the northern end of Mosquito Lagoon near Three Sisters and Shotgun Pass can be some of the best. We have been guiding around the Jacksonville Inshore Fishing, Florida area to help you in fishing.

JACKSONVILLE FISHING CHARTER REVIEWS

Rodman Reservoir with Capt Ken Walker

Jacksonville
★★★★★
We're both 58 years old and have fished many places with many guides. We recently had the privilege of fishing on Rodman Reservoir in north central Florida with Capt. Ken Walker. When we awoke to a 34 degree clear windy morning, we resigned ourselves to a tough day of fishing. We arrived at the ramp early to find Capt. Ken ready in his well equipped, clean, shallow draft center console. Capt. Walker is an intelligent gentleman who has lived and fished around the world. Our initial fears were quickly relieved when he immediately put us on fish. We had steady action and caught at least 10 bass of which 3 weighed more than 9 pounds (the largest was 9 # and 12 oz). Capt Walker had excellent tackle and a continuous supply of big wild shiners. He has an intimate knowledge of Rodman Reservoir and obviously understands bass. We also enjoyed the beauty of the lake, the ospreys and eagles (it was a little cold for the alligators). We look forward to fishing with Capt. Walker again. This was an exceptional trip!

Most likely, but if they don't have our contact please connect them with us and we will get them involved for your convenience. Space is almost always limited, therefore, we have a limited amount of last minute charters.

The two main languages that are spoken are English and Spanish. But it's not uncommon to use translators which captains have on cell phones!

Yes, you may bring food and beverages with you. But do not throw trash in the water, it is against the law and you may get fined. Deposit trash in the wastebasket on the boat, the captain will assist you with this.

Can I take pictures?2018-05-21T13:48:24+00:00

Of course! Photography is encouraged. Our boats have large panoramic windows that are perfect for capturing your catch and sightseeing. We know your vacation photos are important to you because of the way you share them on your favorite platform, when doing so please include @ioutdoor or #ioutdoor and we will be sure to share your pictures with all of our guests as well.

Should I bring an umbrella, what about rain?2018-05-21T13:53:55+00:00
What time do we return from the fishing charter?2018-05-29T09:07:02+00:00

The boat returns to dock at approximately what length time you booked.

How do people dress?2018-05-29T09:40:11+00:00

In layers is best, but fishing is casual. A sundress for ladies with bikini underneath is not uncommon. Khaki shorts for guys is as dressed up as anyone ever gets, long pants work if you're not use to the sun. In the same vein, there are no “styles.” Get comfortable with whatever dress code is norm. But always try to wear light colors as they are cooler.

No, a printed receipt is not required. The captain will have your name and be expecting you.

Does the boat have air conditioning?2018-05-29T09:06:24+00:00

Some do, all the inshore and freshwater charters DO NOT have air condition. Some of these boats do have T-tops or cover, others have no cover. Many of Offshore sportfishing deepsea charters do have air conditioning, although not all. So it's important to ask prior to your departure.

If you don't see the email confirmation in your Inbox, check your Spam or Junk Mail folder. You should also try performing a search in your email account for the phrase: iOutdoor.com. If you still can't find the email, contact us +1 (888) 412-1117 and we will resend the confirmation.

Do you offer Cruise Ship Pick Up from Ports?2020-02-05T17:33:51+00:00

The most affordable way to get to our Florida Fishing destinations and trips is by Uber or Lyft from cruise ship ports. We do offer Cruise Ship Pick Ups from South Florida ports but it will be an additional cost for you.

How long does it take before we start fishing?2018-05-21T13:41:11+00:00

The drive takes different times for different locations and styles of charters. Most inshore and freshwater charters take a 5 to 15 minute boat ride before starting to fish. The offshore charters are ones that can vary based on weather and species of fish the captain is fishing for. It could be 15 minutes, but up to 45 minutes. Again refer to your captain on his call with you and he can provide a detailed plan.

What is your hurricane fishing policy?2020-02-05T17:11:20+00:00

If a hurricane or tropical storm threatens to spoil your fishing trip, we promise to secure full refunds for customers with prepaid charters.

Do we stop while we are out on the water?2018-05-21T13:43:01+00:00

It depends on the customer and type of charter. If passengers wish to take a break, we can stop at scenic areas to stop take pictures, use restrooms or get a bite to eat when available. The charter time is yours, you book for 6 hours and want to fish for three hours and sightsee for 3 hours, that's okay with us. We do ask that you communicate that with the captain, they are fishing captains and focused on catching you fish, so that's what they do unless you advise otherwise.

Do you offer group rates?2018-05-29T09:03:25+00:00

Yes, for large parties. You can email us at [email protected] with the specifics of your group. If you prefer to speak with us now, call or chat with us (407) 392-4593.

Do you offer Wi-Fi on the fishing charters?2020-06-27T12:45:12+00:00

Many of the boats have hotspots onboard for FREE Wi-Fi. Due to the nature of the technology and locations that the boats travel there are many locations that may have no service during your charter. Please ask your captain about service quality prior to going, we are not responsible for interruptions of service that are beyond our control..

Can I come to your office?2018-07-03T12:07:42+00:00

No, our office is not open to the public. It is strictly a call center, our aim is to give you the best possible prices so it helps.
