Deep Sea fishing is the most popular type of fishing for cobia in Florida as well as nearshore fishing, inshore fishing, and flats fishing.

The most common fishing techniques in Florida are bottom fishing, light tackle fishing, and live bait fishing but trolling and heavy tackle fishing are popular as well.

How much do Florida cobia 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 cobia fishing in Florida?

The most popular season for cobia fishing in Florida is summer, and most anglers book their trips 19 days in advance.

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

    Spencer did wonderful with my family. Got us on a variety of species topped off with an epic tarpon fight right into the sunset! He went above and beyond for us and knew exactly how to get it done!

    Alex was a great guide, knowledgeable, patience, we found the tarpon and snook but we just couldn't get them to bite. Some days you're the hammer some days you're the nail. Definitely be back again.

    Trip: Flats And Backcountry Fishing

  • ★★★★★
    Jim was great! He was a wealth of knowledge and put us on fish all day long. Was very patient with us beginners, and helped us pick it up quickly. Conversation was great throughout the trip, we talked all about fishing, travel, and the Keys. We would highly recommend to anyone looking for a great day of fishing while in the area!
