The most common fishing techniques in Florida are light tackle fishing, live bait fishing, and artificial lure fishing but bottom fishing and sight casting are popular as well.

How much do Florida black drum fishing charters cost?

Is booking a fishing guide worth the money?

Hiring a guide provides a number of benefits and many choose to book a fishing guide for a combination of experience, local knowledge, convenience, and cost-effectiveness.

Working with experienced fishing guides who know the best local spots and techniques can dramatically increase your odds of a great day. Having someone who is on the water every day and knows the area like the back of their hand is going to give you the best chances of success.

Booking a guide is also more cost effective, especially if you only get out a handful of times per year. When you consider all of the costs you would incur on your own such as the price of a boat, maintenance, insurance, gas, high-quality gear and tackle, repairs, and more, you’ll find that DIY is sometimes not worth the expense.

Even if you’ve got a great setup already in your home waters, booking a guide also provides a great opportunity to experience new techniques, new locations, or even a chance at a new target species to knock off the bucket list.

What month is best for black drum fishing in Florida?

The most popular season for black drum fishing in Florida is spring, and most anglers book their trips 9 days in advance.

Do I need a Florida fishing license for black drum and what are the bag limits for black drum in Florida?

    Trip: Inshore Fishing Trip Port Orange

  • ★★★★★
    We had an absolute blast fishing with Captain Ty! He put us on an incredible variety of fish, including Goliath grouper, shark, snook, and ladyfish. 🎣 Captain Ty worked incredibly hard the entire trip. He never gave up and did everything he could to put us on fish and keep us on them. His knowledge, effort, and determination made the trip an experience we won’t forget. If you’re looking for a great fishing charter, I highly recommend Captain Ty. We had an amazing time, and I will definitely be back and booking another trip with him! Thanks again, Captain Ty, for an awesome day on the water! 🤙🎣

    Great fishing trip with Michael! We had an awesome time fishing with Michael! He was a great guide, knew exactly what he was doing, and made the whole experience a lot of fun. We caught a ton of fish, but honestly, the great conversation and laid-back atmosphere made the trip even better. Michael was friendly, knowledgeable, and just an all-around great guy to spend the day on the water with. We had a fantastic experience from start to finish and couldn’t have asked for a better fishing trip. Highly recommend Michael! We will definitely be fishing with him again!

    Our trip was great. Jared was top notch on everything. We will definitely book with him on our next trip here. Absolutely the best charter we have been on. We caught a lot of fish and plenty of keepers to take back for a great meal.
