It’s capable of speeds of up to 50 knots, which means you’ll be wasting no time getting to any fishing spot that you’re planning on visiting that day.

You’ll also find all the necessary safety equipment, a wireless trolling motor, downriggers, and a live bait tank.

The variety of fishing grounds types and species present in the area means you’ll be able to target a wide variety of fish using an entire spectrum of techniques. This makes for a great opportunity for novices, children as well as anglers new to the area who want to quickly get acquainted with local fishing and Jacksonville area’s beautiful ecosystem.

Included in the price of the trip is all the fishing gear you could need, live bait and artificial lures, your fishing license, as well as water and sports drinks. The only things you need to bring with you are any snacks you’d like, some sunscreen and sunglasses, and you’ll be ready to start your adventure!

Great Trip!
Half Day Jetty Fishing on June 21, 20252 adults
Captain Frank Cole gave us one of the best fishing days we’ve ever had! From start to finish, everything was smooth, professional, and fun. His knowledge of the area, patience, and passion for fishing really stood out. We caught a great variety of fish and felt like we were in expert hands the entire time. The boat was clean, well-equipped, and comfortable, and Frank made sure everyone—from beginners to seasoned anglers—had a great time. Highly recommend booking with Captain Frank Cole if you’re looking for a top-tier offshore fishing adventure. We’ll definitely be back! 🎣🔥

Half Day Trip – Bull Redfish on August 23, 20252 adults
Had a great time with Captain Frank. I appreciated the call beforehand where he got some info on what I was after and told me what to expect from the trip. Once out, we got on the fish pretty quickly and landed a 100 lb tarpon! Not only did he put me on fish all trip, but gave me tips on what to look for while going after bait, spotting the big fish, and fishing the area in general. Would highly recommend Capt Frank and will be booking again.

We had a great time with Capt Cole. Very knowledgeable about the area and great equipment. Put us on fish during tough times and my daughter caught one of the biggest trout I’ve seen in a while.

Captain Frank took us out on a 4 hour trip and within the first 15 minutes we were fighting a 40 pound tarpon for 20 minutes. Great experience and great time on the water with my friends!
