THE VESSEL

A 29' Pro Sports Offshore Catamaran

The trip operates from a 29' Pro Sports catamaran designed for offshore runs — a stable platform for trolling, live‑baiting and bottom fishing for a mixed slate of Atlantic species.

THE TARGETS

A Wide, Sportfish‑Heavy Target List

Anglers can expect an array of targets: Kingfish, Mahi and Sailfish figure prominently, alongside Snapper, Sea Bass, Triggerfish, Jacks, Grouper, Sharks and more — a varied program that can shift with season and distance offshore.

THE RANGE

10–20 Miles Out into the Atlantic

Trips run roughly 10–20 miles offshore from Port Canaveral, putting anglers into true near‑offshore and offshore grounds where pelagic and bottom species overlap.
