Come aboard one of the very few Hypoluxo fishing charters whose Coast Guard Inspected vessel is licensed to fish up to 10 passengers! Southern Comfort IV offers affordable fishing charters for large parties, perfect for family outings, corporate fishing trips, bachelor parties, and everything in between!

The Southern Comfort IV is a 48’ drift boat powered by a 670hp engine. She’s fully furnished with a wide variety of comfort features to ensure a relaxing ride to and from the fishing grounds, or in between bites. Her air-conditioned salon lets you escape the elements for a quick snack and inside you’ll also find a clean restroom. For safety features, onboard is a CPR-Trained crew, first-aid equipment, and an abundance of life jackets. On top of the comfort amenities, Southern Comfort IV is loaded up with top of the line fishing equipment! Her outriggers allow Capt. John to troll multiple lines at once, and the fishfinder ensures you’re always on the fish.

Captain John Schulz will be at the helm of the Southern Comfort IV. He’s a second-generation Hypoluxo native with decades of fishing experience. Captain John, along with his veteran deck hands, will make sure everyone on board is comfortable with the fishing techniques needed to land your trophy catch. Young anglers are more than welcome aboard! Captain John and the Southern Comfort IV crew are great with kids and will dedicate their time to make sure they’re having the best fishing trip.

There’s a variety of trip lengths to choose from for your Hypoluxo fishing charter. The half day trips, both in the morning and afternoon, are popular for the anglers that are short on time. The ¾ day and full day trips are for the fishing enthusiasts that are looking to bring a cooler full of fresh fillets back to the dock and catch their share of trophy fish! The fishing technique, season, and trip length will determine the species we’ll be targeting, but you can expect to catch Wahoo, Tuna, Sailfish, Grouper, Triggerfish, Mangrove Snapper, Mutton Snapper, Cobia, and more!

The entire team here aboard the Southern Comfort IV is excited to share their passion with you. Captain John Schulz custom tailors each trip to YOUR preferences, no two trips are ever the same!

Our extended family gathered in south FL from 6 different cities to celebrate my nephew’s graduation this December. When my father in-law asked me to setup “some sort of fishing outing” for all of us I did a good bit of research and decided that the Southern Comfort IV was exactly what we needed. So glad I found them and it was WELL worth the 45 min drive from LBTS. Captain Bill and his mate, Scott, took great care of us. Super relaxed vibe, next to no down time, and we took home close to 20lbs of cero mackerel and yellowtail snapper! I’d definitely book this boat again and I’ve already recommended it to some of my friends.

We fished with Captain Bill, September 10 and 11. Fishing was slow, but Bill and mates did everything they could do to catch fish. If they aren’t biting they aren’t biting. On the September 10 trip we did catch a good sized Wahoo along with a few other fish, including a barracuda, yellow tail. September 11 we chased out 10 miles and then trolled back. Long and short Captain Bill could done mothing more to snag more fish, and certainly the Wahoo on Friday was a heck of a highlight for us, as well as Scotty, the mate. I think he was more excited than we were. Though not a boatload of fish, still two great days with Captain Bill and team. Highlight for me in addition to a great couple of days with my grandsons, but I met John Schultz the owner of the boat, as well as the son of Herbie Schultz, the captain that took me on my first deep sea fishing trip 67 years ago on the original Southern Comfort.

I was worried 4 hours may be too long … or maybe , not long enough! But turned out to be the perfect time on this lovely fishing boat - all presented as advertised. Will be booking again next time my kids are down from New York. Awesome experience; crew helped us with everything, including gutting our fish and filleting theme… earned a well rewarded tip!
