These extended offshore trips give serious anglers the time and range needed to reach prime fishing grounds beyond the nearshore waters. Target multiple species including Little Tunny, mahi mahi, grouper, snapper, and amberjack using a mix of heavy and light tackle techniques.

The boat is equipped with quality tackle for both light and heavy fishing, ensuring you're prepared whether targeting the speed and agility of Little Tunny or the power of larger offshore species.

Local Species Insights: Little Tunny

Little Tunny are aggressive feeders that school in offshore waters around Port Orange, particularly active during the warmer months when baitfish are abundant. These fast-swimming members of the tuna family are known for their acrobatic fights, often leaping clear of the water when hooked. In June, they're commonly found in 40-100 feet of water, following schools of sardines and other small baitfish. Captain Aaron targets them using both trolling lures and live bait, with the fish responding well to fast-moving presentations that mimic their natural prey. Their migratory nature means timing is important, and local knowledge of current patterns and bait movements makes the difference between a good day and a great day on the water.
