We caught our limit so quickly, so we switched gears and started trolling. We caught a huge barracuda, 2 1/2 bonita (something ate the other half as we reeled it in), and a king mackerel. We also caught a huge red snapper, which we weren't allowed to keep, but even that was amazing. It was a beautiful fish and he performed first aid on it before releasing it to guarantee its survival. Who does that? Respect! We actually called it. We had plenty of keeper fish, so he headed back in. Captain Mike fileted the fish we were keeping and even brought us to the restaurant next door (Boondockers) and asked them to cook our fish for us. The amberjacks were delicious! Thanks Capitan Mike for the best Father's Day ever!

We have brought 4 children each time to go out and Captain Mike caters to them like no other. We've been out on many other charters and Captain Mike smashes the competition 10 to none.

Highly recommend this charter above all others in the local Daytona/Port Orange/New Smyrna area. One of the most friendliest men you'll ever meet as well. Thanks Captain Mike for always arising to the challenge.

Lake Jessup is notable for being the home of over 13,000 alligators giving it the highest concentration of alligators in Florida making this a great park for wildlife viewing. Next to the picnic pavilion is a memorial to 12 people who lost their lives during Florida's deadliest tornado outbreak which took place in this area on February 23, 1998. Many of the victims were mobile home residents. Five year old Ashley Himes lost her mother Penny, Penny's fiancé Kevin Taylor, and her grandparents Edward and Debra Hall in the tragedy. Forty people in total died in Central Florida when the tornadoes swept through on Feb. 22 and into early Monday. In Lake Jesup Park there is also a trail to the Lake Jesup Wilderness Area. It is located near the picnic pavilion. This conservation area was purchased to protect the environmentally sensitive area around Lake Jesup. The shallow marsh habitat is a haven for migratory birds.

This park is not far off of Interstate 417 and is on South Sanford Avenue. It is also pretty easy to find. Just run south Sanford Avenue to the end and you go right into the park. The big appeal about this park is obviously the view of the lake. As a side note, Lake Jesup it's supposedly the most alligator infested Lake and all of the country. Just a pretty cool little tidbit. All in all, I would definitely recommend a visit to this park.

We did a quick stop in New Smyrna Beach on a drive from Fort Lauderdale to St Augustine. I was…read morecurious to visit this town since my grandparents came here to rent a place for years to escape the New York winters. Having lived in California for a bit, I grew to love seaside cities with a shopping/dining district. You can definitely find that beach city vibe here too. When we first got to town we visited Canal St, which was a little underwhelming, but did have some shops and restaurants. I liked seeing some of the older historic buildings. If you love pizza, check out Panheads. We next headed over to Flagler Avenue, which I loved! This street is chock full of eateries and shops, plus the beach is at the end. If you only have limited time in town, come here instead of Canal. We had our little dog with us, I felt like it was fairly pet friendly here. We chatted with some friendly people while we took a stroll down the street and saw other dogs as well. I got a kick out of the large number of shuffle boards located on Flagler Ave, I remember coming to FL as a kid and messing around on the court. At the end of Flagler, you can check out the mini boardwalk and catch some views of the beach. Overall, I liked this spot better than I thought I would.
