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

How much does a Fort Lauderdale peacock bass fishing trip 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.

    Capt Brian was fantastic. I took my two boys and we caught fish all day. Five different species of fish including 2 big clown knife fish. Capt was professional, knowledgeable and had everything we needed on the boat for a great day of fishing. I strongly recommend Capt Brian for a great day on the water.

    Jusin was able to put together a great Cast and Blast trip for us.  He does work very hard to put together a good trip.  Fishing for Peacocks, he did make several moves to various spots and successfully put us on fish.  Hunting for iguanas, again he was able to put us on them for a total of 25 iguanas.  Lunch was very good, and along with good weather made for a really good trip, would definitely recommend.

    Had a great trip with my 2 boys (18 and 21). Have fished with guides all over the US and Justin ranks very highly. Great day fishing in the Everglades with 8 species caught. Had a good lunch and then relocated to hunt in iguanas. Lots of iguanas and a great day of memories. Highly recommend!!

    Captain Justin was awesome. He made every effort to make the day a memorable experience for my husband and my sons. They caught lots of fish and thoroughly enjoyed the iguana hunt. The guys also enjoyed a delicious lunch cooked by the captain himself. They look forward to scheduling another trip with Justin and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a fun day of fishing and/or iguana hunting.

    It was an excellent trip. We had fun and caught lots of fish. My two nephews loved it and are ready to go again. Skip was a very nice guy and certainly knows a lot about the variety of fish that exists in Lake Ida.

    Trip: Lake Ida Freshwater Slam

  • ★★★★★
    Captain Justin was awesome. Caught 9 different fish species with him during our fishing part of the trip. He knew exactly where to cast,what to cast, and how to work the fishing pole. The hunt part was amazing as well. Got 12 Iguanas, one being around 41 inches. Justin has the best eyes when it comes to spotting them. He’d point one out while going full speed in the boat. it would take us 10-15 second to spot it. If you want to do an iguana hunt in the Fort Lauderdale area, book Justin.
