The perfect trip A great trip! Debra, Captains Chris and Dylan
worked with me for best Sea conditions. Their efforts to put you on the fish were spot on. Came home with meat for the freezer after a day packed full of action. The crew / owner are outstanding, caring individuals. I could not expect more from a charter. True, knowledgeable, professionals with one mission.
That's a good, successful day of fishing. Look no further. Book them with confidence. Many thanks
to Fired Up for the perfect trip.

Best fishing day ever. Captain Joe was very patient, professional and a very good fisherman. We all got to catch fish, including my 80 year old father in-law. I don't think anyone could ask for more. I won't charter from anyone else but fired up!

Highly recommend, great shark fishing experience My son and I had an incredible experience! We were booked for deep sea fishing but the swells were too big so Captain Logan switched it up to a shark excursion instead. Caught some sharks and had some big ones on the line that gave us a fight. It was a great time! Logan was helpful, knowledgeable, flexible, very professional and great to talk to and get to know.
My wife booked us the tour and said that Debra is great to work with and very helpful. She also talked to Captain Chris and he was very helpful too!
Overall an incredible experience! Very professional and friendly staff. Would highly recommend them! Definitely booking with them again when we come back to Coca Beach!
Thanks for the great time!

Holy Mackerel! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An unforgettable day on the water with Captain Joe!
If you're considering a fishing charter out of Port Canaveral, stop looking and book with Fired Up Fishing Charter. Captain Joe gave our group an experience we'll be talking about for the rest of our lives.
Before we even arrived at the dock, Joe had already been out catching live bait. Watching him work, it was obvious we were with a true professional who knows these waters inside and out.
The most meaningful part of the day for me was how he treated my 80-year-old dad. From the moment we stepped aboard, Joe called him "Dad" and treated him like royalty, making sure he was comfortable, involved, and enjoying every minute. That kindness meant more to us than words can express.
Joe's awareness was incredible. At one point, my dad started getting seasick. Before anyone else even realized what was happening, Joe had a bucket in his hands. He somehow heard it coming while still watching the rods, the water, and everything else happening around the boat. That level of attentiveness says everything about the kind of captain he is.
When you're spending a full day on a boat with someone, you want a captain who is knowledgeable, safe, patient, and enjoyable to be around. Joe checked every box. He kept us laughing, taught us along the way, and was always thinking several steps ahead. He pointed out sea turtles, expertly kept sharks from stealing fish off our lines with quick thinking and boat positioning, and somehow managed to keep everyone engaged the entire trip.
And yes, we caught fish! Lots of them. We landed 10 keeper mackerel, fought and landed a shark, and filled the cooler with an incredible catch even when other boats in the area were getting skunked. At the end of the day, Joe cleaned every fish perfectly, making it easy for us to enjoy our catch later.
One more thing. If you hear Captain Joe yell, "Dammit, Tom!" don't think he's being rude. It became the running joke of our trip and had all of us laughing every time. By the end of the day, it had become such an inside joke that my husband, Tom, is seriously considering naming our future boat Dammit Tom.
The sunrise, the cruise ships heading out to sea, the wildlife, the excitement of the fights, and sharing it all with great friends made this far more than a fishing trip. It became a core memory we'll never forget.
Captain Joe is the kind of guide who combines incredible fishing skills with genuine hospitality, quick thinking, humor, and heart. We can't recommend Fired Up Fishing Charter highly enough, and we'll absolutely be back!
Thank you, Captain Joe, for giving us a day we'll treasure forever!

Great experience We had an amazing day on the water with Fired-Up Fishing! The weather was absolutely gorgeous, and even though the King Mackerel bite was a little slow, Captain Logan did an excellent job managing our time, moving to different spots, and giving us the best opportunities to put fish in the boat.
One thing that really stood out was the communication between the captains. They were constantly sharing information and working together to help everyone have the best possible chance of success. That teamwork and dedication made the experience even better.
My wife, son, and I were all able to catch fish, and my son even landed a shark — a memory he will never forget! The entire trip was fun, professional, and exactly what we hoped for.
We had a great experience with Fired-Up Fishing and Captain Logan. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a great day on the water!

Captain Joe - “I don’t mess around.” Thank you to Debra (The Secretary). Debra went above and beyond in communicating about our trip. There were NO questions that she could not answer. Thank you Debra.
Next is Captain Joe Byrd. 5 Stars!! A true
Captain that kept his word until the very end. "I don't mess around" is how he started the fishing charter trip.
At right about 2 minutes after Captain Joe released the first line into the water, we were on giant King Mackerel. It was none stop action until all my family threw in the towel. We were all sore and completely fished out.
Captain Joe, one of best and most entertaining Captain I have ever met, delivered one of the greatest memories for my family. Thank you Captain Joe. We will be back!

$1,300 - 3/4 day trip
Super clean boat with a private toilet
Comfortable cushion seats for the long ride out.
Super Adults and kids friendly boat

Amazing day to catch King Mackerel If you’re looking for a good time catching fish off shore out of Port Canaveral look no further than Fired Up Charters. Captains Chris and Joe along with their office teammate Debra are amazing. They run a very professional operation leaving nothing to chance. Our boat was well equipped and clean. The bottom fish weren’t hitting so Captain Joe took us trolling and we caught a mess of King Mackerel, a few really nice Bonitas and a nice Cobia that was just under the limit. All in all an amazing day on the water.

Memorable fishing trip We recently booked a fishing charter for our team, and it was an outstanding experience from start to finish. Everything was well organized, set up, and ready for us when we arrived. The crew was professional, friendly, and made sure everyone had a great time. We caught plenty of fish and created some great memories with our team members. This wasn’t our first trip with them—I’m a repeat customer—and it definitely won’t be our last. I highly recommend this charter to anyone looking for a fun and hassle-free fishing experience.

Epic Full Day Offshore Adventure with Fired Up Fishing Charters & Captain Joe! I just wrapped up an unforgettable full-day offshore charter (7am–4pm) with Fired Up Fishing Charters out of Port Canaveral, and it was one of the best fishing experiences I’ve ever had. From booking to the final high-fives at the dock, everything was top-notch, but Captain Joe Byrd made the day truly exceptional. firedupcharters.com
Captain Joe is a seasoned pro with deep roots in Florida waters. He’s knowledgeable, energetic, safety-focused, and relentlessly dedicated to putting you on fish. On our full-day trip, he ran the boat hard, made smart moves when the bite slowed, and kept the action coming across multiple spots. We had solid success with mahi, king mackerel, and more—plenty of reels screaming and fish in the box by the end of the day. Even during slower periods, his positive attitude, humor, and expert tips kept everyone engaged and learning. firedupcharters.com
Whether you’re a novice or experienced angler, Captain Joe tailors the trip perfectly. He explains techniques clearly, helps everyone (including kids or first-timers) get involved, and works his tail off from start to finish. The full day gave us plenty of time to get way offshore, chase different species, and really soak in the experience without feeling rushed. Safety was always priority one—exactly what you want from a captain with his background. tripadvisor.com
The boat was clean, fast, well-equipped, and comfortable for a full day on the water. The entire Fired Up team (including the great communication from Debbie and the crew) runs a professional yet family-friendly operation that clearly cares about creating memories and earning repeat customers.
If you’re looking for a serious full-day offshore fishing trip in the Cape Canaveral / Cocoa Beach area, book with Fired Up Fishing Charters and ask for Captain Joe. You’ll get an action-packed, safe, and incredibly fun day on the water. We’re already planned our next trip!
