Hi I’m Captain Chad. I have been fishing my whole life, thanks to my father that competed and won many tournaments up and down the southeast coast. I am a Florida native that has grown up fishing these waters. I have grown up fishing tournaments with my dad up and down the coast also traveling all over the Bahamas and Mexico.

Having fished tournaments, they have really made me a professional at live bait and kite fishing. Winning multiple billfish and IGFA tournaments I can say I have perfected these fishing methods. Right out of high school I started fishing professionally. I found fishing not just a hobby, but a way of life.

While attending college I got offered a job on a charter boat out of Haulover. I started as a mate and gradually worked my way up the ladder. Getting my captains license at the age 21 made me the youngest captain to ever run a charter boat out of Haulover.

I have been fishing from Haulover Park marina for over 15 years now and love every day...

About Your Trip

It only takes six minutes to reach the ocean from Captain Chad's dock and most of the fish we catch are within two miles offshore. Miami's warm Gulf Stream waters produce fish all year round, including Sailfish, Wahoo, Dolphin, Kingfish, Tuna, Amberjack, Barracuda and Sharks.

You'll be fishing from a custom 43ft vessel completely redone in 2004 with brand new Cummins QSM11 engines total of 1300 horsepower... making it the quickest charter boat in the fleet and cutting down the time to the fishing grounds. The boat is clean and very spacious with plenty of seating up on the bridge and downstairs in the cockpit, equipped with a new custom Release fighting chair, Livewell, Fishbox, Radar, Sonar, top of the line tackle it is truly a fishing machine. Captain Chad will provide all the fishing tackle including Shimano reels on custom rods.

Everything is provided and comes fully loaded aboard the vessel. All you need to bring are your favorite snacks, drinks, and sun protection.

BIG FISH, BIG NUMBERS, and BIG FUN!!. Chad and Ryan worked their butts off to make sure we were on fish early and often. We caught King Mackerel, Mahi Mahi, Black Fin Tuna, Wahoo, Tilefish and a big Golden Amberjack. truly a great day out on the water with lots of great pictures and memories to share. Highly recommended and will go again when we are back in the Miami area. Thanks Chad and Ryan,...
