Light tackle action reefs trips have been on fire! Lots of families enjoying non stop kingfish and snapper using live bait. 10 minute ride from the marina and lines in the water.

Epic Start to 2025 Deep-Sea Fishing in Fort Lauderdale! What a wild start to 2025! Our bottom fishing on January 1st was nothing short of incredible. We pulled up some XL Vermilion Snappers—by far the biggest I’ve ever seen—along with a steady bite of groupers, which is rare off Fort Lauderdale. I’ve never seen the grouper bite so strong around here! The only downside? They went out of season at midnight on December 31st. But no worries—on January 2nd, the groupers were still biting like crazy, and even though we had to release them, the Vermilion snappers were still putting on a show. We had solid action for three days straight, releasing 13 groupers in total and making sure they went back to the bottom safe and sound. The weather has been phenomenal, with calm seas and temperatures in the mid-60s—perfect for fishing. We also caught some great-eating fish, adding to the fun. And with a cold front on the way, we’re excited—cold fronts often bring Sailfish through, and we’re ready for the action! Looking forward to more epic fishing days ahead.

Had a blast on a couple of recent trips teaching and sharing the wonderful world of fishing with these amazing kids. It’s not just about bending rods—it’s about sharing knowledge on various species and techniques, so they leave with more than just fish; they leave with unforgettable memories and skills...

Sailfish have been shallow with some 10-20# Kingfish mixed in. Random Dolphin have been around 200'. We caught some really nice Tuna and 25# in 300'. And the Goliaths have been chewing in 120' but we keep pulling hooks and we broke a 300# swivel yesterday, a factory flaw no

    Trip: Special Midweek 5hr Big Game Trip

  • ★★★★★
    We had a wonderful fishing trip with Bryan. He was very knowledgeable and helped us immensely since we had little to no experience offshore fishing. We could feel that he cared about us catching a fish and that he was trying to fulfill. In the end, we caught 3 fish - 2 rainbow runners and 1 mutton snapper and lost 3 fish. We are super happy.

    Trip: Iguana Hunt

    We highly recommend using Capt. Will! Unfortunately the fish weren’t biting much, but Capt. Will and his First Mate made it a fun trip nonetheless. Great boat, plenty of room, bathroom, A/C, etc. We would definitely rebook with them!

    Trip: Fort Lauderdale Offshore

  • ★★★★★
    We came down for a bachelor trip, and Charlie made it unforgettable! He’s an incredible guide — hands down the best in the Fort Lauderdale area for iguana hunts. There’s no comparison; Charlie’s knowledge, energy, and hospitality put him miles ahead of anyone else, including the Python Cowboy. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience!
