Fishing Daytona Beach Area??

Hey guys I am from up north and I am going to Florida from Christmas through New years and will be in the Gainsville area. Daytona and Flagler beach are a little over an hour away but I have never fished there before. I normally go the other way to the gulf was wondering if anyone new about fishing over there. How far would I need to go out and is there good fishing in that area or any other suggestions to go with in reason? I fish out of a Triton 220 LTS Bay Boat.
Any info would be great.
