Awesome January Weather is Not Typical for Jacksonville

Awesome January weather is not typical for Jacksonville Florida, especially when it comes to smooth seas for deep sea fishing. With very little interest in catch and release by local Jacksonville fishermen, it is almost hard to enjoy this beautiful weather. Private boats have been seeing some good catches of trigger fish and true muttons, however, they are fishing 40 -50 miles off shore to see these catches. As the water temperatures warm up in March, provided this unusual weather pattern holds, it should be possible for the Mayport Princess to see some catches of trigger fish and a few other species that you could bring to your table. So get outside as soon as possible to enjoy the weather and start thinking about some fun off shore in the very near future!
Happy New Year from the Mayport Princess

Happy New Year from the Mayport Princess. The holidays are over and we are anticipating another great year of fishing in 2012. Once again, we all have increased regulations imposed by the National Marine Fisheries Service under the direction of NOAA to adhere to, however we plan to make all of our fishing trips the best that they can be! Most of the bottom fishing in January is catch and release, however if the weather cooperates and we get enough interest under these restrictions we will be doing some fishing during the winter months. Once again, we appreciate all of our customers and look forward to great fishing in 2012.

Happy Holidays from the crew of the Mayport Princess. We made it through another great year of fishing, despite more regulations and longer closures from the National Marine Fisheries Service under the direction of NOAA. Despite the early closure of the black sea bass fishery this year (it will reopen June 1, 2012) and the permanent closure of the red snapper fishery, coupled with a five month seasonal beeliner closure, we managed to have another successful year, THANKS TO OUR LOYAL CUSTOMERS! A day of fishing is never bad, however having to keep up with and adhere to stringent regulations, makes it more of a challenge than ever. We have some great trips planned for the Holiday Season, weather permitting. These trips are only $65 per person, however remember to make a reservation ahead of time. We appreciate everyone who has supported us in 2011 and look forward to another great season in 2012.

Holiday fishing trips always depend on the weather and unfortunately, the weather did not cooperate over the Thanksgiving Holiday Weekend. We are really hoping for some calmer weather for the month of December. We have some great fishing planned, so remember to book early for a family day of fun with Cpt. George and the Mayport Princess. THE COST IS ONLY $65 per person. The winter trips leave the dock at 8:00a.m. and return at 3:00p.m.
