What types of sailfish fishing charters are common in Florida?

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

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

How much do Florida sailfish fishing charters cost?

Prices for sailfish in Florida can range anywhere from about $950 to $4,600, but the average price for a half day trip for sailfish in Florida is $1,684. The average price for a full day trip for sailfish in Florida is $3,074.

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 sailfish fishing in Florida?

The most popular season for sailfish fishing in Florida is summer, and most anglers book their trips 20 days in advance.

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

    Great experience. Slow day, only had one "big fish" in the boat which made the day, we had the option to stop trolling and get little fish so overall fun day great experience

    Trip: Offshore Reefs And More

  • ★★★★★
    Captain Jorge was great. We unfortunately went out at a slow time of year and the fishing that day wasn't the best. We still managed to catch a few and Jorge worked hard to make sure we all got a fish. Also a knowledgeable and cool guy all around, would definitely go out again!

    Trip: 3/4 Day Trip Miami

  • ★★★★★
    My wife and I could not have asked for a better guide. Captain Max and his deckhand, Jacob, were exceptionally personable, knowledgeable, and truly made our experience a priority. From the moment we stepped on board, they made us feel welcome and comfortable, taking the time to tailor the trip to what we wanted most. Their expertise and passion for fishing were evident, and they went above and beyond to ensure we had a successful day on the water. We caught more fish than expected and had a blast the entire time. If you’re looking for a top-notch deep sea fishing experience in the Panama City Beach area, look no further—Captain Max and his crew are the best!
