Whether you're seasoned anglers or first-timers, our experienced crew will make sure everyone has a blast reeling in a variety of nearshore species.
As soon as we push off from the dock, the excitement begins. We'll cruise out to some prime fishing spots where the action is steady and the catches are kid-friendly. Our seasoned captains know just where to find the fish that'll keep young anglers engaged and smiling. You'll be using simple gear that's easy for kids to handle, and our crew is always nearby to lend a hand or offer tips.

This trip is all about introducing kids to the joys of fishing in a stress-free environment. We'll start with the basics – how to bait a hook, cast a line, and reel in a catch. Our patient crew will demonstrate proper techniques and help your young anglers every step of the way. We use light tackle that's perfect for smaller hands, making it easy for kids to feel the thrill of the catch without getting overwhelmed. And don't worry if someone gets a tangle – that's all part of the learning experience, and we're here to sort it out with a smile.
It's not just about the fish – it's about the quality time spent together on the water. Parents love watching their kids' faces light up with each catch, and kids can't get enough of the hands-on adventure. Our trips are designed to be educational as well as fun. We'll teach your family about the local marine ecosystem, fish identification, and responsible fishing practices. Many families tell us this trip sparked a lifelong love of fishing in their kids. Plus, with our focus on safety and comfort, parents can relax and enjoy the outing just as much as the little ones.
While we can't guarantee specific catches, here are some of the fish you're likely to encounter on our family-friendly charters:
Atlantic Sharpnose Shark: These small sharks are a big hit with kids. Usually around 2-3 feet long, they're the perfect size for young anglers to reel in. They put up a good fight but are manageable for kids with a little help. Sharpnose sharks are abundant in our waters year-round, making them a reliable catch that always gets the excitement going.
Whiting: Also known as Southern Kingfish, these tasty bottom-dwellers are a staple of nearshore fishing. They typically range from 10-14 inches and are easy for kids to catch. Whiting have a gentle bite, making them ideal for teaching kids how to feel for and respond to a fish on the line. They're most plentiful in the warmer months but can be caught year-round.
Atlantic Croaker: Named for the croaking sound they make, these fish are another kid-friendly catch. They average about 8-10 inches and are known for their enthusiastic bites. Croakers are fun for kids because they often come up in multiples, creating those "double header" moments that are sure to get cheers from young anglers. They're most active in our waters from spring through fall.
Black Sea Bass: While not as common as some other species, catching a sea bass is always a treat. These fish are known for their striking black color and can range from 8-12 inches in nearshore waters. They put up a spirited fight that kids love, and their unique appearance makes for great photos. Sea bass are typically more abundant in the cooler months.
As your trip wraps up, you'll head back to shore with more than just fish (if you're lucky enough to keep any). You'll have a boatload of stories, plenty of photos, and the kind of shared experiences that bring families closer together. Whether it's the tale of the "big one" that got away, or the proud moment when your little one reeled in their first fish all by themselves, these are the memories that stick. Our crew loves seeing the high-fives, the excited chatter, and the beaming smiles as families relive their adventure on the ride back to the dock.
