Florida Fishing Guide Charters, Cocoa Beach, Titusville, Mosquito Lagoon, Orlando, Cape Canaveral

Central Florida is the best place in the world to sight fish redfish in shallow water. Due to the large numbers of redfish, trout, snook and tarpon our grass flats have been the target of numerous fishing shows and magazine articles. In this part of Florida we have over 400sq miles of some of the most exciting shallow water fishing you could ever dream of. So, stop dreaming about fishing the flats and watching us do it on TV and let's go catch some memories of your own.

I am a Cocoa Beach native and a Full Time Cocoa Beach Fishing Guide. I am the only full time guide in Cocoa Beach that specializes in Fly and Light Tackle sight fishing redfish. Over the past 15 years I have fished these waters over 300 days a year and have over 35 years experience sight fishing redfish with artificial on The Space Coast.

If you have never been sight fishing the flats before, don't worry. I cater to all experience levels, from beginner to expert. I offer both fly and light tackle spinning. As a guide my job is to help you catch fish. I will do everything I can to help you do just that without the stress and screaming you my have encountered with other guides. My philosophy is that fishing should be fun and relaxing. So lets get out and have a good time and put some fish in the boat. To see what we are catching now go to my Cocoa Beach fishing report.

If you have been out with other sight fishing guides before here is something you'll love. Nothing on my deck to get in your way. I'm a poling purist, I don't even own a trolling motor. I come from the old school of sight fisherman. It is all about stealth and the thrill of the chase. Trust me, when you sight fish with me you'll never look at fishing the same again.

Most of the redfish we have caught on my charters over the past 15 years Fishing Cocoa Beach have averaged 30 pounds with a few up to 50 pounds. If you think I'm pulling your leg, (They say a picture is worth a thousand words, well here's a few million words. Click Here and see for yourself). When the conditions are right, you can spot these reds feeding on the flats 200 yards away. With the fish in your site, you sneak up on them, cast you line, and hold on. These fish are a absolute blast to catch on light tackle. After fighting a big red, you can count on going home with a sore arm. I tell most of my clients that we don't catch reds, they catch us.

Another fun fish to catch in the Cocoa Beach area is the spotted sea trout. It is common to catch them between 12 to 27 inches with an occasional gator (30+ inches). There are few things more exciting than hooking into a big trout on a top water lure. Over the past few years we have been catching a few of these fish every year pushing world record size.

I am a full time U.S. Coast Guard Licensed Captain with over 35 years experience fishing the Indian and Banana Rivers from Titusville to Cocoa Beach for redfish, trout, snook and tarpon.

I currently fish from a 2005 Famous Craft 1800XL with a 2007, 150 Mercury OptiMax Saltwater. It is one of the most comfortable and driest flats boats on the market. It can also get us to the fish and back to the dock if a storm crops up as fast as you want to go.

One of the biggest complaints I hear about guides is about the cheep fishing gear they use. When you fish with me expect to be provided with everything I expect when I hire a guide.

A fresh spool of Momoi's fishing line.
G-Loomis Greenwater spinning rods
Shimano Stradic spinning reels
S/A fly line
G-Loomis Cross Current fly rods

And most of all, a full time guide with over 35 Years of Experience that wants to see YOU catch fish.
