We frequently get these questions: Where can you fish on Jacksonville Beach? What’s the difference between inshore and offshore fishing in Florida? What part of Florida has the best fishing? On Jacksonville Beach, you can cast a line directly from the shoreline, or explore inshore opportunities along the Intracoastal Waterway and St. Johns River. The main difference between inshore and offshore fishing in Florida is the depth and distance from the coast—along with the fish you’ll find. Inshore fishing happens in shallower coastal waters and targets species like redfish, trout, and flounder, offering a more accessible, family-friendly experience. Offshore fishing takes you into deeper ocean waters, where you might hook larger fish such as sailfish, marlin, and mahi-mahi.

Florida as a whole offers outstanding fishing opportunities—from the Gulf Coast to the Atlantic and the Florida Keys. But the Jacksonville area, home of MARSHRATS Inshore Charters, stands out for its diverse and productive inshore fishing. With guidance from our experienced team, you’ll explore the region’s rich fishing grounds—an ideal starting point for anyone seeking quality time on the water in northeast Florida.
