Deep-sea fishermen won't have to travel far from the Fernandina Harbor Marina to enjoy some of Florida's best blue water fishing. Numerous fish havens can be found from 8-20 miles offshore of Amelia Island and can be chartered for a half-day or full day trip. Here, a variety of manmade and natural reefs attract a variety of striking fish.

Some of the best trolling action begins in early March when large schools of cobia, spanish mackerel, king mackerel, black fin tuna and bonito migrate into offshore waters.

By summer, blue water fishermen can expect to catch sailfish, cobia, kingfish, wahoo, amberjack, barracuda, cobia and more!

The fall fishing season also offers superb blue water trolling action for kingfish, barracuda, bonito, cobia and amberjack.

The majority of our charter boats live bait troll with live cigar minnows, spanish sardines, menhaden, mullet and blue runners, rigged to twenty-thirty pound trolling tackle. This style of blue water trolling provides the angler with awesome surface strikes, sometimes only a few yards off from the transom or the trolling boat!

Gulf Stream charters can also be arranged through the Amelia Angler. The northeast Florida Gulf Stream is located some 75-miles offshore and requires a 12-hour charter. Here trolling with large plastic lures and rigged baits produces great trolling action for sailfish, dolphin, blackfin tuna, wahoo and blue marlin. Some of the best Gulf Stream fishing action starts in late February and runs right through the month of November. However if you yearn to catch a 30-50 pound bull dolphin, the month of May offers superb dolphin action at northeast Florida's Gulf Stream. Giant wahoo weighing to over 90-pounds, can be caught all year long, however the best months are February, March and November.
