Native Sons Fishing Charters, LLC

When they need to sum up the fishing trips Native Sons Fishing Charters offers, their guides say “Big fish in skinny water”. Join the crew that specializes in fishing the shallow flats of the Indian River Lagoon system. They’ll take you on a trip from the Mosquito Lagoon and Titusville area to Vero Beach and Ft. Pierce, including Cape Canaveral, Cocoa Beach, Melbourne, and Sebastian Inlet.

Captain Rocky welcomes you on his 18’ Key West flats boat that accommodates up to 3 guests. She’s powered by a 140 HP Suzuki engine, has the latest Garmin navigational electronics, and features 3 live bait wells. Light and steady, this boat is just what you need for your day here.

You’ll explore the shallow grass flats and sandbars of the pristine water using the poling platform. Originally a dyed in the wool artificial angler, Capt. Rocky has developed a passion for using live baits for big fish, especially those baits that swim near the surface like finger Mullet and Pilchards. Go after Redfish, Tarpon, Snook, and Spotted Trout and keep everything you catch.

Your Captain covers your fishing license and brings all of the equipment. After the trip, he’ll clean your catch free of charge. You only need to bring your sun protection, some drinks, and snacks.

The adrenaline rush of a giant fish crushing those top-water baits is a heart-stopping adventure. Native Sons Fishing Charters is sharing it with you.

Capt. Rocky grew up in Sarasota Bay before the building booms of the 1960s and 1970s. He found his passion fishing in the clear, shallow saltwater grass flats. He loved all about it - the stillness, the natural beauty of Godā€™s creation, and the lure of the water and the hunt. Capt. Rocky learned everything he could, mostly by his own experience. He experimented with everything. Now 40 years later, he shares this life-long passion on the central east coast of Florida as a professional guide. He's partnered with two of his best friends, Roland Jones and Peter Deeks.
