For peacock bass fishing in South Florida, this is the best time of the year to catch a trophy. The peacocks are already pairing up and we are seeing some beds starting to show up. This past weekend, each of our trips have averaged about 10 to 15 fish per person for a two hour trip. The average size has been over 3 pounds each, in other words, big fish. We don't have many slots open, but but as soon as possible, if you plan on coming to South Florida anytime in March.

Well temperatures in Everglades National Park are back to normal and their fish are starting to behave as they're supposed to starting to see a lot of trout redfish, snook, black drum, sheep, head, and snapper all over the Everglades and in the interior of the park on the outside Florida Bay and the Gulf of Mexico. I have reports of really big cobia about 20 miles out in the golf. Also big snappers and mackerel are biting pretty hard out in Florida Bay and the golf that's my fishing report for February 2 February 4 February 7, February 8 and I have a trip on February 12.

With the cold fronts in the past, the winter months have produced warmer water temperatures and even hotter fishing.

    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!
