The Fired Up Fleet

When I first started this business, we had a center console twin outboard, go-fast boat. Well, I found out quickly that we needed something else. Don’t get me wrong, that’s nice, but for the family and kids that was not going to work. So, I decided to get the perfect charter boat with the whole family in mind. Shade was a must in this hot sun, toilet was a must for the women and children. Big coolers to hold ice and drinks all day and comfy seating. All while keeping a nice smooth ride. And we can’t forget big fish kill boxes.

I found the Stuart Angler. It was the perfect charter fishing boat for Cocoa Beach and Port Canaveral area. At 33 feet she gives us plenty of shade and a great ride. Since I liked it so much we got 3 more, making it 4 boats in the Fired Up Fishing Charters fleet. I believe in keeping things streamlined. If it works, why change it? All of our boats also have a great motor as well. The Yanmar 440 horsepower. It’s a turbo engine and is lightweight making it a very efficient motor. You’ll love the ride.

These style boats are not fast boats like the center consoles, but they are smooth and easy on the back! No banging or slapping on waves, just a nice “plow” style easy ride for the family.
Every year we do overhauls on them and make ’em pretty for the coming year. Another safety aspect I am very proud of is that we have EPIRBs (Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacon) on every boat as well as the corresponding electronics to go with it. As a first responder, safety is my goal and attention to detail is my moto.

Please join us on one of our awesome boats for the trip of a lifetime with your family.
Fun Fact – as a fireman, police officer and NAVY man, I decided to “theme” each boat from my careers. Check out the See More… link below and look at the back of each boat.

The Captains

I can’t say enough good things about the captains of Fired Up Fishing Charters. We have all become family over the years. There is no I or you, it’s US its WE! We are a team, and it shows.

All of us here at Fired up Charters have been running boats since we were in diapers. It’s what we do. It’s what we know. It what we love. Passion. No other word for it. We do this every day from morning till night. Its not an easy job, but it can be a very fun one. Each one of us has held a USCG License for many years. We’re tried and true when it comes to the charter business. Safety, enthusiasm, and professionalism are key to how we run Fired Up Fishing Charters.

Please give us the opportunity to show you a good time and to show you the Fired Up Fishing Charters experience.

						Great Shark Trip Wind and seas weren’t the most cooperative, but still had a great trip. We will be back again for another trip in the near future.
					
				Our family of four had a 3/4 day off shore trip on Seas Fire with Captain Ricky, and it was SPECTACULAR!! From working with Debra on getting the trip scheduled and  coordinated, to being met at the dock, traveling out to the blue waters, and fishing… it was an incredible experience!!  Debra went above and beyond to clarify, explain and helped us through picking a good day, after Hurricane Milton. She provided great ideas on how to prepare, and what to take with us. She also provided detailed instructions for arrival, where to park and meet our captain.  Captain Ricky worked his rear end off, trying to get us on the fish, even though the water was SO choppy. The area still hasn’t settled down from the recent hurricane, and he kept our safety as the top priority. His knowledge of knowing the type of fishing we should do, in certain areas, and then made every effort to get into calmer waters. He kept rods baited, assisted with how to fish, and helped our kids be successful on the water. Our son reeled in a nice mahi and  some snapper,  while our daughter reeled in a few smaller snapper. We were able to keep the Mahi, which we had cooked at Rusty’s (located right at the dock) for our dinner, after the day on the water.  If planning to book a fishing trip, you need to book with Fired Up! You never know what Mother Nature will do, so be sure to work some flexibility into your schedule, and listen to everything Debra says. She and the Captions want to fish and have a safe enjoyable trip, so heed any warnings given. Because we were able to move our day, it made this possible.  Thank you Fired Up for a wonderful day!!

				Best charter in town! 2nd time out with Captain Joe. Awesome as always. He has a gift and never fails to succeed in catching lots of fish. He’s not only good at what he does, but he’s caring enough to help others out with catching bait! We will be back. Thanks for making our girl’s 9th birthday special.

				If you’re looking for an unforgettable shark fishing adventure, Fired Up Fishing Charters with Captain Ricky is the way to go! I recently went on a shark fishing trip with Ricky, and it was hands down one of the best fishing experiences I’ve ever had.  From the moment we set off, Captain Ricky’s expertise was evident.  His knowledge of the area and shark behavior really put us in the best possible position to land some amazing catches. The anticipation built quickly, and before long, we were battling some sharks!  Ricky was not only skilled but also incredibly patient, taking the time to explain the best techniques and making sure everyone was involved in the action. Whether you were a seasoned angler or completely new to shark fishing, he made the experience fun and accessible. The thrill of hooking into a shark and the sheer power of these creatures was exhilarating. Ricky’s energy and passion for what he does made the trip even more memorable.  The boat was in great shape, and all the equipment was top-notch, giving us everything we needed for a successful day on the water. But what really stood out was Ricky’s enthusiasm and his commitment to making sure we all had a great time. He worked hard to ensure that we not only caught sharks but also learned about these incredible animals along the way.  I can't recommend Fired Up Fishing Charters and Captain Ricky enough if you’re looking for an adventure packed with excitement, big catches, and unforgettable memories. I’ll definitely be booking another shark fishing trip with Ricky soon!

				Awesome trip by Fired Up Charters and Captain Ricky! Captain Ricky put us on fish all day. We had Barracuda, Bonito, Cobia, and King fish hooked up on our trip all day. We battled to get them through the sharks. The sharks were bad this trip for some reason but Captain Ricky did everything he could to make our trip successful. It was awesome to see an approx 8’ Bull shark though from the safety of a boat. Nothing but good things to say about Fired up charters. Next time we are here in Orlando, they will be the ones we call!
