with Capt. Dave Sipler            

Inshore fishing the St. Johns River, and estuaries around Jacksonville and Amelia Island, Florida provides year round opportunities for Redfish, Speckled Trout, Flounder, Black Drum, and Sheepshead to name just a few. 

(check seasonal fish calendar below)

The legendary Mayport Jetties are mile long piles of huge granite boulders that protect the inlet to the St. Johns River from the Atlantic Ocean.  Around these jetties is some of the best and most consistent fishing for many of our inshore and ocean species.  Both these trips can provide you with a fun and challenging day of light tackle fishing.

Capt. Dave takes pride in providing you with a personalized private charter, the best tackle available, a comfortable and safe, fully rigged boat.  And the know how to get you on the fish fast. "No long boat rides", is the motto. Just a fun day of  learning and experiencing something new and exciting, 12 months a year. From beginners to seasoned anglers, everyone  has fun!
