Fishing is ON in Daytona Beach in the Spring Time with Captain Corey & First Mate Melissa!

Fishing is great year round in Daytona Beach but in the Spring from March through May, it’s really Hot!

<< That’s First Mate Melissa of On The Hook Charters with a Mutton Snapper caught on a recent offshore fishing charter.

Everything is biting as fish populations migrate north along the Atlantic Coast following the warming ocean waters. You don’t have to go far offshore during the Spring in Daytona Beach to catch some of your all time favorites such as Sharks, Cobia, Mahi-Mahi (Dolphinfish), Amberjack, Permit, Kingfish, Triggerfish, Barracuda and much more.

Sight fishing for Cobia in the Spring is an Unforgettable Experience!
We follow the giant Manta Rays for the Cobia Swimming Below!

Captain Corey offers nearshore fishing trips for Cobia just one half to five miles off the Daytona Beach shoreline. Cobia love to swim just below the surface in the shadows of giant rays. Imagine a 16 foot giant Ray leaping out of the water like a small whale and just below the Ray are the Cobia which swim below the Rays! It’s an unforgettable experience and some of the most exciting “sight fishing” you will ever do! See more information about Spring Time Fishing in Daytona Beach with Captain Corey and On The Hook Charters.

Bottom Fishing Paradise!
There are now 15 artificial reefs in the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Daytona Beach and they are a HUGE success for bottom dwelling species such as Snapper and Grouper.

<< This beautiful Red Snapper was caught on a recent offshore fishing trip. That’s First Mate Melissa holding the snapper for our guest.

The reefs are comprised mostly of old concrete structures and have become home to dozens of species of Snapper and Grouper including Red Snapper, Mangrove Snapper, Vermillion Snapper, Scamp Grouper, Red Grouper and many, many more! Also abundant on the reefs are Amberjack, Cobia and Triggerfish. While on a Daytona Beach deep sea fishing charter with Captain Corey, we can also troll for King Mackerel, Mahi-mahi, Wahoo, Sailfish, Barracudas, Sharks and many other species.

Deep Sea Fishing Charters
Trolling - Trolling offshore near Daytona Beach is world class with plenty of Dolphinfish (Mahi-Mahi), Wahoo, Cobia and King Mackerel to be caught while deep sea fishing with On The Hook Charters. We can even troll for Sailfish, Sharks and Barracudas.

<<< Captain Corey holds a Dolphinfish (Mahi-Mahi) caught while trolling offshore.

Bottom Fishing - Bottom fishing is great, too! The artificial reef system in the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Daytona Beach is one of the most extensive in the entire country. They are home to a wide variety of bottom dwelling species such as Snapper and Grouper as well as Amberjack and Cobia that are found in large numbers around the artificial reefs.

<<< This young lady caught a nice Amberjack while bottom fishing over the reefs near Daytona Beach with Captain Corey.
