Sportfishing here in Miami Beach is a unique experience unlike any other. Captain Ethan and his crew know the area and know how to make your trip enjoyable and memorable. His sportfishing charters offer plenty of opportunities to catch and keep your fish, if you so desire! Ethan and his crew can even clean your catch and suggest nearby restaurants that will cook it up for you. Charters launch from the Miami Beach Marina and traverse the area between Ft. Lauderdale and Key Largo. However, if the fishing report states a much wider range, Captain Ethan will go as far as 30 miles offshore. His goal is to give you the best sportfishing experience possible—each and every trip. Some of the fish regularly caught on these trips include Mahi Mahi, Sailfish, Kingfish, Tuna, Sharks, Blackfin Tuna, and Wahoo. However, an unexpected blue or white Marlin may show its face in the spread, when an experienced angler knows you never know what to expect. While a few fish are catch and release only, you can keep much of what you catch—depending on size. Our crew will keep you up to date with the current information. A day of sport fishing is something you will never forget! All equipment is provided, but you are welcome to use your own if you prefer. Please bring your own snacks and drinks for the trip as well as a tip for the deckhands! Read More

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.

What is wahoo fishing in Miami beach all about?

Wahoo, known for their speed, aggression, and delicious flesh, are a prized catch among anglers in Miami Beach. These sleek predators inhabit the deep offshore waters off the coast of Miami Beach, where they patrol reefs, wrecks, and offshore structures in search of prey. Wahoo are renowned for their blistering runs and powerful strikes, providing anglers with thrilling battles once hooked. Miami Beach's strategic location along the Gulf Stream provides ideal conditions for targeting wahoo year-round, making it a popular destination for anglers seeking an adrenaline-pumping fishing experience.

One effective method for targeting wahoo in Miami Beach is high-speed trolling. Anglers use specialized trolling lures such as skirted baits or diving plugs designed to mimic the movements of fleeing baitfish. These lures are trolled at speeds of 10 to 15 knots or more, enticing strikes from wahoo as they dart through the water. High-speed trolling allows anglers to cover a large area of water and locate active fish, making it a productive technique for targeting wahoo in Miami Beach's offshore waters.

Another popular technique for wahoo fishing in Miami Beach is deep-trolling with rigged baits or lures. Anglers deploy baits such as ballyhoo or bonito rigged on wire leaders and weighted with sinkers to depths where wahoo are known to inhabit. This method allows anglers to present baits at various depths, increasing their chances of intercepting passing wahoo. Deep-trolling requires precision and patience, as anglers must carefully monitor their lines and adjust their presentations to entice strikes. With its challenging yet rewarding nature, wahoo fishing in Miami Beach offers anglers an unforgettable offshore adventure against the backdrop of the city's stunning coastal scenery.

What are the most popular months to fish for wahoo in Miami beach?

Wahoo, being highly migratory pelagic predators, can be found in the waters around Miami Beach throughout the year, but their abundance and behavior can vary depending on the season. Generally, the peak season for wahoo in Miami Beach occurs during the cooler months of late fall and winter. As temperatures drop, wahoo migrate southward along the Atlantic coast, passing through the waters off Miami Beach in search of prey. During this time, anglers can expect increased numbers of wahoo and higher catch rates as the fish congregate in offshore areas.

Late fall through early winter marks the height of the wahoo season in Miami Beach, with these predators actively feeding in the offshore waters. The onset of cooler weather stimulates wahoo to feed voraciously, making them more susceptible to angler's offerings. Anglers targeting wahoo during this season often employ high-speed trolling techniques using specialized lures designed to mimic the movements of fleeing baitfish. The combination of favorable water temperatures and increased wahoo activity makes late fall and winter prime time for anglers seeking to hook into these lightning-fast predators.

While late fall and winter are considered the peak seasons for wahoo in Miami Beach, these fish can still be targeted throughout the year. Spring and early summer can also produce good wahoo fishing opportunities, especially during periods of stable weather and favorable ocean conditions. Anglers should be prepared to adjust their tactics and locations based on factors such as water temperature, currents, and the presence of baitfish to maximize their chances of success. Understanding the seasonal patterns of wahoo in Miami Beach is essential for anglers looking to plan successful fishing trips and reel in these prized pelagic predators against the backdrop of the city's stunning coastal landscape.

What techniques are popular for catching wahoo in Miami beach?

Wahoo fishing in Miami Beach demands a combination of specialized techniques to entice these fast-moving predators into striking. One effective method favored by anglers is high-speed trolling. Using heavy-duty trolling gear and specialized lures designed to withstand the strain of high-speed trolling, anglers cruise offshore waters at speeds of 10 to 15 knots or more. The lures, often skirted baits or diving plugs, mimic the frantic movements of fleeing baitfish, attracting the attention of wahoo. This technique allows anglers to cover a large area of water and locate active fish, increasing their chances of hooking into these powerful predators.

Another popular technique for wahoo fishing in Miami Beach is deep-trolling with rigged baits or lures. Anglers deploy baits such as ballyhoo or bonito rigged on wire leaders and weighted with sinkers to depths where wahoo are known to inhabit. This method enables anglers to present baits at various depths, targeting wahoo both near the surface and in deeper waters. Careful attention to trolling speed and depth control is crucial for success when deep-trolling for wahoo, as the fish can be found at varying depths depending on factors such as water temperature and prey availability.

In addition to trolling techniques, some anglers opt for live bait fishing to target wahoo in Miami Beach. Anglers deploy live baitfish such as mullet or blue runners rigged with wire leaders and weighted with sinkers to depths where wahoo are known to patrol. This method allows anglers to present natural, enticing offerings to wahoo and can be particularly effective in areas with abundant baitfish populations. Regardless of the technique employed, successful wahoo fishing in Miami Beach requires patience, precision, and a keen understanding of wahoo behavior and habitat.

What other species are popular in Miami beach?

Besides wahoo, Miami's coastal waters offer a diverse range of species to target, ensuring anglers have plenty of options for exciting fishing experiences. One popular species among anglers is the mahi-mahi, also known as dolphin fish or dorado. Mahi-mahi are abundant in Miami's offshore waters, particularly during the warmer months, and are known for their vibrant colors and acrobatic leaps when hooked. Anglers often target mahi-mahi by trolling with rigged baits or lures near floating debris, weed lines, or offshore structures where these fish congregate.

Another sought-after species in Miami is the sailfish, prized for its speed, agility, and spectacular aerial displays. Sailfish are prevalent in Miami's offshore waters year-round, with peak seasons occurring during the cooler months when they migrate southward along the Atlantic coast. Anglers commonly target sailfish using trolling techniques, deploying rigged baits or artificial lures while cruising along the edges of the Gulf Stream or near offshore structures such as reefs and wrecks. Sailfish are known for their aggressive strikes and thrilling fights, providing anglers with unforgettable experiences on the water.

Miami's coastal ecosystem also provides opportunities to target species such as wahoo, kingfish, grouper, snapper, and tarpon, among others. Whether fishing inshore along the reefs or venturing offshore to deeper waters, anglers can enjoy a wide range of fishing experiences year-round. With its warm climate, clear waters, and abundant fish populations, Miami offers endless opportunities for anglers to pursue their favorite species and create unforgettable fishing memories against the backdrop of the city's stunning coastal landscape.

    My son and I went on a 4 hour fishing trip from Pompano Beach through the Hillsboro Beach Inlet. Captain Dave and mate Tom crewed the boat. They were both professional and very friendly. They made us feel welcome immediately and Captain Dave in particular showed interest in my son who had not been on a deep sea trip previously. They both made the utmost efforts to find us fish. They told us that the morning trip had been pretty quite but they did a lot to find fish, which they did. We ended up landing 5 fish of different species and Tom was kind enough as well as skilled enough to clean the Mahi Mahi and Black Tuna for us to take with us. I would definitely go out with them again the next time we go.

    David O. with Tim M. of Fort Lauderdale, Florida

  • ★★★★★
    I've been out on charters many, many times mostly down the east coast but also in Cabo. I must say the trip out with captain Manny is one of the two best trips out I've ever experienced. Her out is on fish, Jordan (the mate) ensured the rods and basis were correct and ready to catch fish. This was just a half day trip but next trip I'm going full day. Wow, I highly recommend Captain Manny!!!!! The catch highlights have to include the 54" barracuda and a 7' shark (it took two of us tag teaming and over 30 minutes to bring the shark alongside the boat for measurement.
