OUR STORY
Nestled in the heart of Melbourne's Indian and Banana River Lagoons, Red Alert Fishing offers unparalleled fishing experiences to customers from around the world. Founded by Captain Ken Krause, a seasoned mariner with over 25 years of experience, our charter service is more than just a business – it's a passion for the water, fishing and a commitment to providing unforgettable experiences for every guest who steps aboard.
ABOUT CAPTAIN KEN KRAUSE
I've been a captain since 2002 and have worked on boats since I was 15. I have fished professionally in multiple states along the Eastern Seaboard and in Alaska. For the past 16 years, I've focused on fishing in the Banana and Indian River Lagoon system. Despite working as a crew boat, supply boat, and tugboat captain, my passion has always been coming home to fish whenever possible. Now, I've turned my passion into a full-time career.
ABOUT THE BOAT
We fish from a 2300 Ranger Bay boat. This stable, shallow running boat allows us to fish areas other boats cannot access. Our boat comfortably fishes 4 and can seat 5 for eco tours.
