A J Brown Charters is a guided fishing adventure out of Cedar Key Florida. I fish a 22′ Morgan center console boat, where I fish the flats and backcountry of Cedar Key. I have half day and full day trips that are family friendly!

Cedar Key is located on the west coast of Florida, about an hour west of Gainesville. We have amazing fishing here; I’ve been fishing the area almost 40 years. I’ll guide you to Redfish, Trout, Sheepshead, Mango Snapper, Black Drum, and Silver Trout. I also fish the channels for Shark, Cobia, and Tarpon.

While in season, Redfish, Trout, Sheepshead, Mangrove Snapper, and Cobia are some of the best table fare you could ask for. I’ll let you know what fish are in season, and what the size regulations are while we’re out on the water. At the end of the trip, I’ll fillet the day’s catch and send you home with a full cooler!

All tackle is supplied, but feel free to bring your own; check with your guide concerning amount and styles. You’ll want to pack your camera to capture the area wildlife and what you reel in. Also bring sunglasses, food, drinks, rain gear or jacket. Check with the guide about what to expect for the weather conditions and what to expect.

Groups of four fit comfortably in the boat. And we have all USCG Certified Safety Equipment. The boat is able to accommodate those in a wheelchair. Check with the guide if you have any other requests or questions prior to our fishing trip.

We can go bottom fishing, drift fishing, or spinning. Whether you are an experienced angler, or new to the sport, I’m happy to teach you the proper techniques required for reeling in your catch. I’m happy to help bait the hook and de-hook after you’ve landed your catch. It’s always a thrill to watch someone land their first fish, I look forward to experiencing that with you!

Cedar Key is a fishing vacation spot – perfect low-key town for those who love the outdoors. I’ve lived here my entire life and know where to find the fish. I have some great stories about my adventures and look forward to helping you create your own fish adventure stories!

Half Day Trip
I had heard from two, longtime residents that “A.J. Brown is the best inshore fishing guide in Cedar Key”. I have been coming to Cedar Key since 1984. Certainly Mr. Brown tops my all-time list, and that’s good company at the top. He had us on fish immediately ... my redfish keeper on the boat within 35 minutes. Caught trout, sheepshead, and several redfish we had to release. Mr. Brown is an expert fisherman and an even greater human being. I feel honored to have spent part of my day with him today. We caught a bunch of fish, yes, but more important, I left our trip today touched by having spent time with such a deeply good person.

My son, son-in-law and myself had the delightful pleasure of a 1/2 day fishing trip with Mr. AJ Brown on Oct 23, 2021. Mr. Brown has overwhelming credentials for a fishing guide in Cedar Key: born and raised in Cedar Key and fishing his whole life there. He guided us to all the best spots, seemlessly around the flats and through all the channels. Pleasant and patient, he also added comment about Cedar Key history, historical markers and the aquaculture of clams active in the area. Highly recommend this man! Daniel Lyons 10/25/21

We ended up doing 2 days with AJ and had a blast both days. He got us on the fish despite freezing weather the first day and we caught even more the next.
