June 24, 2026We had an amazing trip with our group, ranging in ages from 5 to 63. Two boats as we had 11 people, but stayed together when we were fishing and could talk back and forth. I preferred the smaller boats as more comfortable for fishing in my book. Both captains were wonderful with the kids as well with all the newbie questions, and made sure everyone was well and comfortable too. Very knowledgeable about the area and had answers to all our questions. Such fun and we would definitely use them again anytime! Everyone is still talking about that trip.

June 9, 2026Our trip was amazing. Kids weren’t too excited before we left on the trip but all had a blast and want to do it again. We all had such a great time. We were put on fish wherever we stopped and it couldn’t have been any better. Christian’s personality kept the kids having fun the entire time. Kids had so much fun, as did I, keeping track of their fish counts. We had fun stopping on a little island playing games he provided and caught fish there too! It was the best of both worlds. The kids were able to swim and we were able to fish. We will definitely book with him again.

June 7, 2026We had an amazing time on our fishing charter! Captain Christian was fantastic with my son, making sure he was involved throughout the entire trip. He put us on the fish quickly, shared helpful fishing techniques, and was patient, encouraging, and fun to be around. The highlight of the day was watching my son build confidence with every catch and even out-fish me! It turned into an unforgettable father-son adventure filled with great memories and plenty of laughs. If you're looking for a knowledgeable captain who works hard to find fish and creates a fun, family-friendly experience, I highly recommend booking a trip with him.

May 21, 2026I did a good bit of homework prior to booking this charter and I'm so grateful I did! We decided to go with Captain Christian for the 8 hour private island deal and I couldn't be happier. He was very friendly and approachable from the moment of meeting him. It was my husband and I with our 6 year old son on the trip. My son's first boat ride as well! Captain Christian was wonderful! Made us feel very comfortable and had a fun kid side which was perfect for us. We spent a good chunk of the day fishing, listening to music and just having good conversation. The island time was my favorite. My son was living his best life, finding cool shells, playing with his shovel/bucket set. Ended the day with my husband catching a shark! Oh....got to see dolphins and a sea turtle too!!! A wonderful day filled with great memories I'll cherish forever. Thank you Captain Christian for a great day! We will be back!

May 20, 2026My fiancée and I booked our first saltwater fishing trip, and it exceeded all expectations. Captain Christian was professional, friendly, and made the experience enjoyable from start to finish. He took the time to teach us the basics, shared helpful tips, and made sure we were comfortable and successful on the water. Thanks to his guidance, we both caught fish and had an incredible time. It was a fun, memorable day, and we couldn't have asked for a better introduction to inshore fishing. We highly recommend Jus Chillin Charters to anyone visiting Daytona Beach. If we're back in the area, we'll definitely be booking another trip!

May 20, 2026What a great trip Christian put us on fish everywhere he took us. Awesome customer service . An expert guide who knows exactly where and what species is in every spot we fished. You can't go wrong with this charter... Worth every penny. Can't wait to come back next year.

May 13, 2026We booked a trip with Captain Christian to celebrate my husband's birthday, and it turned out to be an unforgettable day on the water. From start to finish, he went above and beyond to make the experience special and personalized. He played our favorite music, kept the conversation flowing, and brought great energy throughout the trip. Most importantly, he made sure we caught plenty of fish! Our catch included whiting, pinfish, pufferfish, channel catfish, sail catfish, shark, dragonfish, and flounder, making for an action-packed day with lots of variety. Captain Christian truly cares about his guests and works hard to create a fun, memorable experience for everyone on board. We wholeheartedly recommend him for your next Daytona Beach fishing adventure!
This fishing trip exceeded our high expectations BY FAR! We caught atleast 7 different types of fish. Captain Christian knows what he's doing! He knew the spots to go to and is very friendly and accommodating. We even caught exotic fish which we didn't even know was an option. We ended the trip catching 2 sharks at the same time! If we're ever back in the area we WILL book this private fishing trip again!
