Hooked on the Space Coast: Inshore Fishing with a Local Pro
Looking for an unforgettable day on the water? As a Melbourne native, I’ve spent my entire life navigating the Indian and Banana Rivers. I know these backwaters and canals like the back of my hand, and I’m ready to take you exactly where the fish are biting.
We’ll target the "Florida Slam" and more, including:
• Tarpon
• Redfish
• Snook
• Trout
• Jack Crevalle
Why fish with me?
No two days on the river are the same, and I thrive on the strategy of the hunt. My competitive edge comes from a unique background—before guiding full-time, I spent seven years playing professional baseball after being drafted by the Miami Marlins in 2015. Throughout my athletic career, I took my passion for fishing to every city I played in, but nothing beats the world-class flats and mangroves of my hometown.
Whether you are a seasoned angler or looking for a fun family outing, I’d love the opportunity to guide you through our local waters. Let’s get out there and make some casts!

More fishing FAQ's
HOW MANY PEOPLE ON A CHARTER?
Our charter rates cover 2 people fishing and a maximum of 4 people on the boat. We charge an additional $50.00 for the 3rd and 4th person. The 4 person limitation does not apply to our family-oriented sightseeing charters.
WHAT ABOUT FOOD?
You're more than welcome to bring lunch, snacks, and any additional drinks you may want. NO GLASS CONTAINERS.
WHAT IF I BRING MY OWN ROD?
We will be providing you with top-of-line Rod and reels. If you feel the need to bring your own gear, then you will need a 7-foot medium-heavy action rod with a fast tip. We will supply all lures, terminal tackle, and bait. We hate to see our clients bring a rod that is not heavy enough to handle a really big fish so be sure to check with us before you bring any tackle on your charter.
WHAT'S YOUR CANCELATION POLICY?
Deposits are fully refundable if excursions are canceled up to 72 hours prior to scheduled departure. Your deposit will be returned in full if Capt. Ryan feels that due to inclement weather the trip needs to be canceled and cannot be rescheduled to a later date.
CAN I KEEP THE CATCH?
We encourage catch and release.
DOES YOUR BOAT HAVE A RESTROOM?
No, but we are usually within 15 minutes of a restroom.
