If you are looking for a fun day of fishing with no stress, give Captain Brian Kmiotek of Operationtek Fishing Charters a shout! He’s got local knowledge along with great fishing skills to ensure your trip is a great one.

Delray Beach and its waters have a lot to offer to both seasoned anglers and novices, and all you need is good weather and an even better boat. Thankfully, your guide has a 18’ Carolina Skiff that’s perfectly suited to take you to the most bountiful fishing grounds. She’s powered by a 70 HP Suzuki engine and can accommodate up to 3 anglers, or 2 adults with two kids under the age of 16.

On board, you’ll find quality rods, reels, and tackle, so you don’t have to pack your own for this expedition. If you’re fond of fly fishing, Capt. Brian can take you to the best spots, though you should bring your own fly fishing equipment. Live bait will be provided for you, and you will be casting your line 15 minutes after you move out.

When it comes to your prey, you will be going after a colorful mixed bag of catch on your half-day trip. Peacock Bass, Largemouth Bass, and Clown Knife Fish could all easily find their way to your line, and then it’s up to you to keep or release them. All of these species will give a proper fight before you manage to reel them in, not to mention they look great on photos.

Capt. Brian loves having kids on his boat, for him, it’s a great joy to teach them the fishing basics and watch them hook their first catch. This means you’re welcome to bring your little ones for a family fishing jaunt, they will have a wonderful time. Also, remember to bring some snacks and drinks to keep your energy.

Join Operationtek and your guide, enjoy your trip to the fullest, and remember – on this charter, every guest is treated like family!

We’re Hooked!
3 Hour (Beat the heat) on October 26, 20252 adults
We have just moved to the area and had seen so many people fishing so wanted to give it a try to see if we could learn the basics and see if it was something we’d enjoy. We had SUCH a great morning! The time flew by - so pleased we opted for the 3hr session. Rigt away we were fishing….We caught peacock & large mouth bass, crappie, clown featherback and an atlantic needlefish and learnt so much along the way. Captain Brian was super knowledgable and guided us as first timers at every step. Genuinely couldn’t recommend this trip more! - Thank you for a wonderful experience!

Definitely worth booking
Half Day Trip on August 4, 20252 adults
I definitely recommend booking with this charter. We caught six species, he is willing to do all the work for you if you please. Baiting your hooks, netting the fish, even taking them off and releasing them if your someone who doesn't want to touch anything. He will do his best to keep consistent action, if it slows down he moves to find fish. If your looking for a nice inland lake/canals fishing trip, this is your guy. No complaints on my end.

Unforgettable Day on Lake Ida with Operationtek Fishing Charters!
Half Day Trip on May 18, 20252 adults1 child
From start to finish, our experience with Operationtek Fishing Charters was nothing short of exceptional. Captain Brian is not only incredibly knowledgeable but also passionate about what he does—and it shows. He knew exactly where to go on Lake Ida to find the fish, and within minutes we were reeling in peacock bass, largemouth, and even clown knife fish! The boat was clean, comfortable, and fully equipped with top-of-the-line gear, making it easy for both beginners and experienced anglers to enjoy the trip. Brian was patient, professional, and full of great stories that kept the energy high the entire day. Whether you’re looking to catch your personal best or just want a peaceful day on the water surrounded by Lake Ida’s natural beauty, Operationtek is the charter to book. I can’t recommend them enough—we’re already planning our next trip!

Brian is Amazing!
3 Hour (Beat the heat) on November 15, 20252 adults
Brian took my son and me out for a great morning in November. We caught tons of fish thanks to his knowledge of the lake and canal system. My son caught the grand slam (every species in the lake). Brian was a pleasure to talk with and really took great care of us. Highly recommend
