State records from the water off Satellite Beach

Florida's all-tackle list records one species taken on Indian River, which the boats here fish.

Heaviest on the list

Striped Bass

Why this one is here

The record was taken on Indian River, which is the water the boats on this page fish — not Satellite Beach itself. A record is what came over the rail once; it is not what to expect on a trip.

Questions about fishing charters in Satellite Beach

What happens if it is too windy to go offshore?

Often the trip just moves inshore rather than being called off — 13 of the 76 boats here run both, so a blown-out morning can become a back-country or bay trip. Ask what the captain does with weather, and what the cancellation terms are.

Back-country or offshore — which trip should I book in Satellite Beach?

They are different days on different water. 14 charters here list offshore only, 11 list inshore only, and 13 list both. Offshore means a longer run and bigger fish; inshore means calmer water, shorter runs and sight-fishing. The month-by-month table above shows which fish the fleet says are around when you are coming.

What should I bring on a Satellite Beach charter?

Sun protection and your own food and drink. Food, drinks, hat and sunglasses come up most often on Satellite Beach charter sites. As Captain Frank Catino puts it: “You will need to bring a rain jacket, appropriate clothing in regards to the season, a hat and sunglasses.”

Are there family-friendly fishing charters in Satellite Beach?

35 charters in Satellite Beach mention kids or families on their websites. Ask the captain about children's life jackets, trip length and whether there's a restroom on board.

How do I book a charter in Satellite Beach?

What should I ask the captain?

Ask what the trip includes, how long it lasts, how many people can come, what you're likely to catch that time of year, and the cancellation policy if the weather turns.

Where do state waters end off Satellite Beach?

Florida state waters on the Atlantic run from shore to 3 miles out; beyond that is federal water. Federal seasons and limits apply beyond it, and for some fish they also apply to federally permitted charter boats inside state waters.
