What types of lobster fishing charters are common in Florida?

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

The most common fishing techniques in Florida are spearfishing, bottom fishing, and cut bait fishing but gigging and jigging are popular as well.

How much do Florida lobster 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 lobster fishing in Florida?

The most popular season for lobster fishing in Florida is summer, and most anglers book their trips 30 days in advance.

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

    Best fishing trip everrrrrrr! we got 9 snappers that we could bring home and eat! Besides those we could keep, we got countless amounts of small snappers we won a Guinness world record for the smallest snapper in our family history. Plus, we caught and released 3 catfish and a jellyfish! Thank you Captain Tim! (From the birthday boy :))

    We had a great day on the water with Allen! We booked a lobstering and snorkel trip and with it being the last weekend of lobster season there was concern for finding few lobsters. Allen volunteered to add in fishing at no additional cost which was very considerate and a great addition to the day! We caught several snapper and even several lobsters we were able to keep. I would book again!
