Our Conservation Commitment
At Off The Dock Charters, we believe in fishing responsibly and preserving our marine ecosystems for future generations. Learn about our conservation efforts and how you can help protect Florida's precious waterways.
Sustainable Fishing Practices
Captain Chandler Brown is dedicated to sustainable fishing practices that minimize impact on our marine environment. We strictly adhere to all fishing regulations, practice proper catch-and-release techniques, and educate our clients about the importance of conservation.
Our commitment extends beyond just following rules—we actively participate in local conservation efforts and stay informed about the latest research and best practices in sustainable fishing.
Catch & Release
We practice and teach proper catch-and-release techniques to ensure fish survival. This includes using circle hooks when appropriate, minimizing handling time, and keeping fish in the water when possible.
Habitat Protection
We navigate responsibly to protect seagrass beds and other sensitive habitats. Our shallow-draft boat minimizes impact on the environment while allowing access to prime fishing areas.
Clean Waters
We never leave trash behind and participate in local waterway cleanup efforts. All fishing line and tackle are properly disposed of to prevent wildlife entanglement.
Education
We educate our clients about marine conservation and the importance of protecting our fisheries. Understanding leads to appreciation, which fosters a conservation mindset.
