About Your Trip

Head out for an awesome offshore adventure aboard the Gradyful out of Boca Raton & Pompano Beach, Florida. The vessel is operated by Captain Shawn, who is known for his obsession for catching fish, ocean conservation and most notably his sense of humor.

When you charter with Captain Shawn you can either troll the nearshore waters for Mahi, Cobia, King Fish/Mackerel, and Blackfin Tuna, or head to the reefs and wrecks to bottom fish for Mutton Snapper, Gag Grouper, Goliath Grouper, Red Grouper, Permit, Lane Snapper, and even Tarpon when they're in the area.

Your charter includes professional rods and reels, tackle, bait, live bait upon request, lures, fuel, ice and cleaning your fresh catch to take home and enjoy. All he recommends that you bring are your favorite snacks and drinks, some sun protection, and a camera to document your successful day!
