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

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

How much do Florida swordfish fishing charters cost?

Prices for swordfish in Florida can range anywhere from about $1,260 to $6,400, but the average price for a half day trip for swordfish in Florida is $1,712. The average price for a full day trip for swordfish in Florida is $3,753.

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 swordfish fishing in Florida?

The most popular season for swordfish fishing in Florida is summer, and most anglers book their trips 32 days in advance.

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

    We went out in a 6 hour deep sea fishing trip with Captain Eric and his deck hand Maddox yesterday 7/12/2025. They were both amazing, knowledgeable and extremely laid back and helpful. There were 6 of us and by 9am we had all already reached our snapper limit! We also caught some red grouper, but none were big enough to keep, Bonita, Amberine, black snapper, a trigger fish we had to release as they aren’t in season and a few others! We absolutely had a blast and would recommend Eric’s charter boat to anyone! If you get hot, all you have to do is step inside the HUGE air conditioned cabin that sleeps 6 with a full bathroom, living room and kitchen. The boat was meticulously maintained, and SO clean! You do not have to be an experienced fisherman to go out with them! They will guide you through everything!! We’ll definitely be booking again!

    Captain Larry exceeded our expectations. Worked hard all day to find numerous species. The boat was great and we had a great day. Highly recommend.

    Trip: Daytime Swordfishing

  • ★★★★★
    Our trip with Capt. Cris was better than we could have imagined. He showed us how to catch live bait, answered any and all questions we had, and we caught our dinner for the night! Cris cleaned our fish and gave us a great recommendation for where we could take it to be cooked for us that evening. 10/10 experience. Thank you Capt. Cris!!

    Knowledgable and fun captain, put my family on the fish. Also mixed it up and fished the conditions. I would use this boat again in the future.
