Carson Cook, Captain at Capt Cook Charters

Join Captain Carson Cook for an unforgettable day fishing the waters of Jacksonville, Florida. As a U.S. Coast Guard–licensed captain and lifelong angler, Carson brings both experience and enthusiasm to every trip. His goal is simple—to give you a fun, safe, and productive day on the water, whether you’re new to fishing or a seasoned pro chasing your next big catch.


Based on Florida’s First Coast, Captain Cook Charters offers fully guided inshore, nearshore, and offshore trips. In the backwaters and creeks, you can target Redfish, Flounder, Spotted Seatrout, and Sheepshead, while nearshore and offshore trips open up opportunities for Cobia, Kingfish, Snapper, Sailfish, and more. Each adventure is customized to match the season’s best bite and your personal fishing goals.


Captain Carson’s 22-foot Tidewater center console, powered by a 200 HP Evinrude engine, is built for comfort and versatility. It accommodates up to five guests and is perfectly suited for fishing shallow creeks, nearshore reefs, or deeper offshore wrecks. The boat is equipped with quality fishing gear, a cooler with bottled water, and safety equipment. Fishing licenses for up to four guests are covered by the captain, so all you need to bring are snacks, sunscreen, and a sense of adventure.


What makes Captain Cook Charters stand out is Carson’s background in youth education. With over five years of experience working at a local kids’ fishing camp—where he still volunteers today—he knows how to make fishing fun and accessible for all ages. He’s patient with beginners, encouraging with kids, and dedicated to helping every guest learn something new while enjoying the day.


You’re welcome to bring your own drinks or light refreshments, but please enjoy them responsibly. The captain prioritizes safety and comfort for everyone onboard, ensuring that every trip is both enjoyable and secure.


From early morning inshore runs to offshore adventures chasing trophy fish, Captain Cook Charters offers a laid-back, friendly, and professional experience tailored to your preferences. Whether you’re here to fill the cooler, learn new techniques, or simply spend a great day on the water, you’ll leave with memories that last a lifetime.
